The PV5 is the first in a series of battery-powered purpose-built vehicles (PBVs) that the company plans to launch over the next several years, based on Hyundai Motor Group’s E-GMP dedicated electric vehicle platform.
The PV5 is a mid-sized PBV light commercial vehicle (LCV) designed both for passenger and cargo transportation. It will be available as a passenger minibus, for commuting and family leisure activities, and as a panel van for last-mile cargo deliveries.
