Users can reserve a vehicle through a dedicated app. Once booked, the PV5 electric van will autonomously navigate to the user's location without a driver. After use, customers can park the vehicle at a chosen spot, and a remote operator will then use 4G or 5G wireless technology to return the van to its garage.

Kia suggests this program can enhance business efficiency by reducing the need for companies to own and manage vehicle fleets. The service also offers convenience in vehicle pickup and drop-off.

This pilot is part of Kia's broader strategy to advance remote driving technology. The company has previously received regulatory exemptions for remote driving and has collaborated with partners like Socar and KT to demonstrate and develop this technology. Kia plans to use data from this trial to refine the technology and potentially expand the service in 2027.
