Although MG has a history of making sports cars, the Cyberster is the first roadster to don the badge since the TF was discontinued in 2011. Chinese automaker giant SAIC Motor acquired MG in 2007. While the brand remains rooted in British heritage, its lower model SUVs now have the technology that make Chinese cars…
The last few Audi’s I’ve had on test have all left me more than satisfied. From the small A3 all the way to their flagship performance SUV, the RS Q8, Audi has just been finding the sweet spot when mixing comfort, technology and looks. When the A5 was launched last year, I noticed that this…
Much like the Volkswagen Amarok and Ford Ranger, the new VW Transporter has a relationship with the Ford Tourneo. It is part of a global commercial vehicle alliance between the two brands. What does that mean? Well, instead of cross-ownership, both competitors agreed to share development costs and technology across specific commercial vans, mid-size pickup…
As new car prices continue to rise, along with the price of fuel and the broader cost of living, buying one of South Africa’s more affordable cars is no longer as inexpensive as it once was. For buyers shopping below the R23 0000 mark, the gap between new and nearly new is worth looking at closely….
Tata made its comeback to South Africa in the second half of last year, launching four models that ranged from budget friendly to a tech-heavy crossover. I had the mid-range Curvv and the flagship Harrier. Both are meant to be more elegant products from the brand but it felt too out of Tata’s comfort zone…
The new Mazda 3 has been around for a while and has undoubtedly come a long way. It comes as no surprise that the brand has become associated with comfort, efficiency and reliability. The new Mazda 3 does not disappoint in living up to that reputation, proving itself in my drives along Cape Town’s meandering…
Last year, I took the Toyota Corolla Cross on a trip from Gauteng to Limpopo. I wanted to test the space, fuel consumption, comfort and the ride quality because the vehicle had become popular among South Africans. While it passed most of the tests, it mostly struggled with comfort and lacked appeal on the interior. …
Mercedes-Benz unveiled the all-new electric C-Class at its global launch last week, drawing mixed reactions to its updated design language. Before the next chapter arrives, we spent time behind the wheel of the current, fifth-generation C-Class — a model rolling off the production line at the Mercedes-Benz plant in KuGompo City. One thing I love…
Every morning on South Africa’s highways, byways and off the beaten tracks, a moving mosaic of colour tells a story about who we are. The white bakkie chasing a deadline, the silver sedan blending into the cityscape, the red hatchback darting through traffic with youthful bravado — each shade is a clue to the driver’s…
Launched at the end of October 2025, the Jetour T2 is fast becoming one of South Africa’s favourites, selling 1 651 units by the end of January. Jetour registered 665 units sold for January alone and since the launch of the vehicle in Cape Town, I’ve noticed incredible hype around the vehicle. People consistently asked…
