Can Kia’s new PV5 topple VW’s reborn icon?

Описание: Two electric icons, two very different approaches — but which one makes more sense? Join Batch and Nicola as they put the brand-new Kia PV5 head-to-head with the much-loved Volkswagen ID. Buzz in this full video comparison.
The ID. Buzz has wowed us with its retro looks and feel-good design, but the Kia PV5 arrives with a more modern, modular and — crucially — more affordable take on the electric people-carrier. Is the PV5 actually the better all-round EV? Does its lower price and practical focus make the Buzz look expensive and under-equipped? Or does Volkswagen’s style and charm still count for more than cold, hard value?
From interior space and tech to driving impressions and everyday usability, Batch and Nicola break it all down to find out which electric MPV you should really be buying.
