PV5 Production Line (Video)

Find this pretty amazing. So much automation is in play at the PBV factory in Korea. 

The PV5 is designed to be built build robots, and the factory of robots is designed to handle all the different configurations of PV5 (and PV7), including many configurations not seen in Europe.

The video is in Korean, click the settings cog and you can get it in English.  Enjoy!

Camping with the PV5

The main reason I went for the PV5 was the room inside, it was one of only two EVs on the UK market that had sufficient safe driving headroom for a tall driver.
