What will our future be like with the Kia PBV?
29 August, 2024
PBVs (Platform Beyond Vehicle) are modular electric vehicles that go beyond traditional cars. They are not only designed for the driver, but their focus is on the purpose of use. This shift reflects current trends: moving towards a sharing model rather than ownership, and meeting the growing demand for mobility. Kia is convinced that PBVs will transform our daily lives, creating new ways of living and working.
1. Steve’s Journey
Steve is always busy, so he uses his subscription to a ride-sharing service. Today, as he finishes his breakfast, his car arrives just in time to take him to work. Later, before a conference, he remembers his dog and turns on Pet TV from the car to keep him entertained.
2. A Day in the Life of Emma
Startup CEO Emma sprained her ankle yesterday. No problem, though: She calls the mobile hospital to take care of her while she heads to the office. Later, she has lunch at a mobile restaurant, and at the end of the day, she books a mobile hotel for a meeting across the country. She wakes up in a new city, ready for a new day.
3. Ryan and his Lunch Date
Ryan, a freelance designer, has a lunch date. Just before he leaves, he gets an urgent call for a project meeting. Without a hitch, he calls a robo-taxi with conferencing capabilities and attends the meeting while heading to the subway. Later, he buys a smart pen and has it delivered to his home within hours thanks to a fast-delivery POS.
4. Outdoor Adventure with Cindy and her Family
It’s camping day for Cindy and her family! Their multi-purpose vehicle transforms into a camper. While the kids play and the adults enjoy a movie, the vehicle’s solar roof provides them with plenty of power. Upon arriving at the campsite, they enjoy a barbecue and then sleep under the stars, all thanks to their PBV.
These scenarios are not just a vision of the future, they are the beginning of a new era of mobility with Kia’s PBVs. Can you imagine being part of these stories?
