What happened
Kia is aiming to sell 250,000 electric vans by 2030, according to Electrek.
Within that target, the company expects its larger electric vans, the PV7 and PV9, to account for a bigger combined share of sales than the PV5.
Why it matters
The projection suggests Kia sees its larger electric van models, rather than the smaller PV5, as the main volume drivers behind its 2030 electric van goal.
If that expectation holds, the mix of Kia's electric van lineup would skew toward its bigger models, which is a notable signal about where the company believes demand will sit.
