Electrek reported on 9 October 2026 that Kia had extended the £1,500 UK Electric Car Grant to the seven-seat PV5 Passenger grades. Kia's UK price table, captured on 14 October, lists Essential at £36,995 on the road before the grant and £35,495 after it; Plus is £38,775 and Elite £40,475 after the grant. These are displayed prices, not individual dealer quotes or a stock guarantee. The same preliminary table marks seven-seat range and insurance group as TBC. GOV.UK lists PV5 Passenger in the £1,500 grant band and says the seller applies the discount at purchase. Kia's visible worked PCP example is for a five-seat Essential, so its monthly terms do not establish seven-seat finance. Ask a Kia PBV Centre for the exact grade, final on-the-road price, range and finance terms in writing. Kia product imagery identifies the PV5 Passenger, not a particular seven-seat trim or its grant eligibility.
