TESTED 2025

The Kia PV5 Cargo has been tested as part of ANCAP's Commercial Van Safety Comparison, which assesses the fitment and performance of the active (collision avoidance) safety systems fitted to commercial vans.

This assessment is separate from ANCAP’s traditional star rating program.

Fitted with a wide range of collision avoidance features, the battery electric Kia PV5 Cargo debuts in ANCAP's Commercial Van Safety Comparison with a PLATINUM grading.

Testing showed the Kia PV5 Cargo provided GOOD levels of performance across the majority of autonomous emergency braking (AEB), lane support, and speed assistance test scenarios. ADEQUATE performance was observed in AEB scenarios involving pedestrians.

AEB Backover functionality is not available.
