  The latest Financial Times' Future of the Car Summit featured a fascinating debut: the Kia PV5 WAV (Wheelchair Accessible Vehicle). As anyone with mobility issues already knows, it's difficult to find vehicles that accommodate one's unique needs. Just any regular EV won't do. Kia saw this need and designed their PV5 WAV to meet the needs of all valued customers.
Meet the Kia PV5 WAV, a New Accessibility EV
Kia wants to make life easier for everyone, but they're especially aware of the lack of resources for people with disabilities. Even with all the technology in the world today, so few companies utilize it to help with the practical inconveniences of having a disability. Kia is changing all that with their PV5 WAV.
There are three primary ways this model helps to make life easier for those with limited mobility and wheelchairs. First, you can enter the vehicle from the side. Second, there's curb-side access. And third, a third-row tip-up seat makes it easier to make room for cargo. Sangdae Kim is the Executive Vice President and Head of Kia's PBV Division. He excitedly revealed that "The PV5 WAV is more than just a vehicle; it's a gateway to independence and freedom for those with mobility challenges. By integrating cutting-edge Platform Beyond Vehicle technology with thoughtful design, we are paving the way for a future where everyone can enjoy the benefits of sustainable mobility."
Kia didn't just recently start caring about people with disabilities. They've focused on this goal since 2012. Their unique take on mobility rights and similar initiatives are now a long part of their history. The PV5 WAV is just the latest entry in Kia's ongoing efforts to improve life for all people, not just a select few.
Kia plans to continue showing off this model and making sure it gets to the people who need it the most. Not only is Kia creative and caring, but they also consciously work to make their models more affordable to the average buyer, all without sacrificing quality and safety. Kia will update customers with even more information about the PV5 WAV soon.
