A Kia PV5 electric van has set a Guinness World Record for the furthest distance travelled on a single charge with a maximum payload, writes Brian Byrne. The van achieved 693.38 km in the test, which took 22.5 hours to complete.
The PV5 Cargo arrives in Ireland in December at a starting price of €33,230. It has up to 4.4 cu m of load space and will come as standard with a 71.2kWh long range battery.
The PV5 is the inaugural model in a family of cargo and passenger vehicles.
