Based on the 'The 2025 Bongo III EV' released in April, the lineup includes refrigerated trucks, box trucks, wing body trucks, double-door sliding box trucks, and power gate trucks. In addition, Kia has enhanced practicality and convenience by reducing rapid charging time, increasing the brightness of the box truck's LED lights, and improving the quality of the vertical power gate.
Kia improved the rapid charging speed, reducing the time required to charge the battery from 10% to 80% from the previous 47 minutes to 32 minutes, and applied a new battery cell with higher energy density. The brightness of the box truck's LED interior lights was increased to improve visibility in dark environments such as at night or in underground parking lots. The quality of the vertical power gate was also improved to minimize situations where rust or scratches may occur.
The prices are as follows: refrigerated truck low model 62,920,000 won, standard 63,020,000 won; box truck low model 48,670,000 won, standard 49,820,000 won, high 50,110,000 won; wing body manual 50,800,000 won, electric 52,300,000 won; double-door sliding box truck low model 50,080,000 won, high 50,740,000 won; power gate vertical type 49,060,000 won, turn-in type 49,190,000 won.
A Kia representative stated, "We expect that the Bongo III EV special purpose vehicle, which now offers enhanced product competitiveness, will lead the small commercial special purpose vehicle market."
