    Both models took centre stage at the Kia exhibition stand, offering vastly different but equally significant glimpses into the company’s commercial ambitions. One is a tech-filled van that looks like it rolled off a sci-fi film set; the other is a brawny, go-anywhere bakkie built to compete with the toughest names in the business. According to Kia, the PV5 is more than just a van – it’s a “mobile lifestyle hub”.
