The all-new KGM Musso EV will make its public debut at the Commercial Vehicle Show at NEC Birmingham from April 21–23, 2026. Priced at £39,995 (~$50,400 USD) including VAT, the electric pickup now qualifies for the UK government’s full £5,000 ($6,300) Plug-in Van Grant. KGM describes it as Korea’s first fully electric pickup truck.
Highlights
- UK pricing confirmed: £39,995 (~$50,400 USD) on the road, after the £5,000 Plug-in Van Grant
- Lowest BIK in class: 4% Benefit-in-Kind tax rate for 2026/27, equating to approximately £30/month ($38)
- BYD-sourced battery: 80.6 kWh LFP pack with a manufacturer-estimated 240-mile range (WLTP) and 20–80% rapid charging in 31 minutes
- Work-ready specs: 690 kg payload, 2.3-tonne towing capacity, full-time all-wheel drive
Pricing and Tax Advantage
The confirmed £39,995 price point includes the full £5,000 Plug-in Van Grant. For business users, the Musso EV attracts a 4% Benefit-in-Kind rate for the 2026/27 tax year. KGM states this delivers the lowest personal tax cost of any commercial vehicle in the UK market.
Powertrain and Battery
The Musso EV uses an 80.6 kWh lithium iron phosphate battery supplied by BYD. KGM quotes a range of up to 240 miles, though this figure reflects the WLTP test cycle and no EPA-equivalent rating is available for the UK market. Rapid charging supports a 20–80% fill in 31 minutes.
The electric drivetrain produces 207 PS (204 hp) and 339 Nm of torque. Power routes through a full-time all-wheel drive system.
Commercial Capability
Payload capacity sits at 690 kg with a 2.3-tonne towing rating. The rear suspension is load-sensitive and self-leveling. These figures position the Musso EV as a working-spec electric pickup rather than a lifestyle vehicle.
CV Show Presence
KGM will exhibit on stand 5C30 in Hall 5. Alongside the Musso EV, the brand will display its diesel-powered Musso Saracen and Rexton Commercial Vehicle.
Kevin Griffin, Managing Director at KGM Motors UK, said: “The Commercial Vehicle Show is the perfect stage for Musso EV and for our wider commercial vehicle line-up. Musso EV brings something genuinely distinctive to the market, combining usable electric range with serious capability, and the addition of the £5,000 Plug-in Van Grant makes it an even more compelling option for businesses.”
Availability
The Musso EV is available to order now. First demonstrator units are expected at dealerships in May 2026.
