In the cargo area, the 2026 Kia PV5 Cargo has 4420 litres of space all up (or 4.42m3), measuring 2255mm long, 1565mm wide and 1520mm high.
It has a step-in height of 419mm from the ground, but the wheel arches inside create a floor that’s not quite flat at the back half of the bay.
The Kia PV5 Cargo isn't very powerful, and thus has a 0-100km/h time in the ten-second-plus region. Its 135km/h limited top speed also reflects this.
Kia claims the 2026 Kia PV5 Cargo uses 19.1kWh per 100km driven under WLTP testing, and it should get 416km of driving out of the van’s 71.2kWh battery.
Kia says the PV5’s charge time on DC fast charging is around 30 minutes, as the maximum charging rate is 150kW.
AC charging is maxed at 11kW.
