Kia PV5 electric van becomes mini-camper with VanLab kit
The Kia PV5 electric van transforms into a mini-camper in minutes using a modular kit. No modifications needed. Features sleeping area, kitchen, and V2L power. Affordable at €1,840.
The electric Kia PV5 van has found an unusual application—thanks to a new modular kit from VanLab, it transforms into a fully functional mini-camper in just minutes. This conversion requires no modifications to the body or any interference with the vehicle's structure. The system works like building blocks: modules simply slide into interior tracks and lock in place without tools.
As a result, the rear section gains a proper sleeping area with extra storage compartments and a compact kitchen. The key advantage is flexibility. During the day, the PV5 remains a work van, and by evening, it becomes a home on wheels. This approach makes the model especially appealing to those seeking a versatile solution and pondering which vehicle to choose for both work and travel.
Another benefit is the electric power supply. With V2L functionality, the car can power external devices like a stove, lighting, or a laptop. Essentially, the PV5 turns into a mobile power station, which is particularly useful for camping. The kit is lightweight and doesn't significantly impact driving range. At a price of around €1,840, it's an affordable option even by budget accessory standards.
The Kia PV5 illustrates a new trend: vehicles are evolving beyond mere transport into multifunctional platforms. Solutions like this could shape the future of urban and family cars.
