Armagh IT Firm make the switch to EV with Shelbourne Motors Kia PBV

At Shelbourne Motors, we’re proud to support forward-thinking businesses as they transition to smarter, more efficient fleet solutions.

Recently, Stephen Pollock, Managing Director from IT Hub shared his experience after introducing the all-new Kia PV5 Cargo into the company fleet, a move driven by performance, practicality and long-term cost savings.

Stephen had clear expectations when searching for an electric commercial vehicle capable of meeting the demands of a busy, high-mileage business operation.

For Stephen and his business, the Kia PV5 Cargo was the first electric van that genuinely delivered across every key area:

“The range that the PV5 offers is fantastic and fulfils our needs perfectly. The speed of charge for the vans, the price point… it was almost a no brainer.” “The PV5s are the first vans to enter the electric market that I would even consider.”

Delivering Real Operational Savings

For IT Hub, the transition to electric was not only about sustainability — it was also a strategic financial decision.By utilising on-site solar charging infrastructure, the business has already identified significant reductions in operating costs:

  • Approximately £10 for a full charge delivering around 240 miles of real-world range
  • Estimated annual running costs of just £460 per vehicle
  • Monthly finance costs lower than the company’s previous diesel fuel expenditure

Built for Business

From Ballymena to Tipperary, the IT Hub team regularly travel extensive distances to support customers across the region.

Despite the demands of a high-mileage operation, Stephen highlighted the confidence the Kia PV5 Cargo provides, with excellent range capability and no concerns around day-to-day usability.

Beyond efficiency, the new fleet has also strengthened the company’s professional image, with the newly branded vehicles making a strong impression on the road.
