HORSHAM, U.K. - s4story -- Sussex Campervans has announced it is bringing the award-winning Kia PV5 to the UK market as a first-of-its-kind campervan conversion. The Kia PV5 electric van has already made global headlines, winning International Van of the Year 2026 and setting a Guinness World Record for the greatest distance travelled by a light-duty battery-powered electric van with a maximum payload on a single charge.

Partnering with Kia to align with the manufacturer's global sustainability goals, Sussex Campervans has built this conversion on Kia's innovative 'Platform Beyond Vehicle' (PBV) architecture. The result is a sustainable alternative for the green travel market that delivers high performance without compromise.

Unlike traditional conversions, this purpose-built approach utilizes recycled materials and retains the factory-fitted integrity of the vehicle, avoiding the need to strip out original fixtures. This significantly reduces waste and allows for a more seamless integration of the living space into the van's modular chassis.

The Kia PV5 conversion offers an expansive interior with a signature low floor, multi-screen interface, and cutting-edge tech. By combining Sussex Campervans' decades of bespoke conversion expertise with the PV5's advanced electrical architecture, off-grid travel is now smoother and more accessible than ever. For total peace of mind, each vehicle comes with Kia's industry-leading 7-year warranty, a commitment fully mirrored by Sussex Campervans on the conversion itself.

"This vehicle really is quite something. Said Managing Director, Daniel.

It's built on a whole new platform. It's not just a petrol or diesel vehicle with a motor popped in. A true new design like this has many advantages: a very low floor, which makes it easy to get in and out; amazing visibility from the cab, which makes driving easier than ever before; multiple screens so it's clear what you're doing when you're driving; and some of the latest technology."
