Isuzu SA is proud to be celebrating 60 and 45 years of truck and bakkie production in the country and their position as one of the renowned OEM manufacturers in South Africa.
This celebration is a demonstration of the company’s resilience, moulded through multiple transitions from General Motors and Delta, to ultimately becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of Isuzu Motors Limited in 2018.
Notable achievements in recent times include being the number one truck brand in the medium and heavy commercial cab-on-chassis segments for 11 years consecutively, manufacturer of the year in the SAVRALA awards for four consecutive years, internationally recognised top employer for two consecutive years and Eastern Cape Best Exporter into the African continent in 2023.
Isuzu is strategically positioning itself to take advantage of the African Continental Free Trade Area agreement and grow its footprint across the continent. Isuzu’s journey of resilience and growth continues and the company remains a proud contributor to South Africa’s automotive sector, delivering quality vehicles while creating meaningful impact in the community it serves.
Celebrating 45 years of building bakkies
Isuzu Motors South Africa is celebrating its legacy of producing bakkies in the country for 45 years with the launch of a limited-edition D-Max 45.
Based on the seventh generation D-Max 3.0 Ddi Double Cab LSE 4x4 Automatic derivative, this model will be available with an exclusive range of accessories and features, adding further lustre to one of the bakkie segments most revered nameplates.
The D-Max 45 is based on the 3.0 Ddi Double Cab LSE 4x4 Automatic, which means it has an appreciably high level of standard comfort, safety and convenience features, matched to the proven capabilities of the 3.0-litre Ddi intercooled turbodiesel engine, which produces 140kW and 450Nm. This is paired with a dependable six-speed automatic transmission and a part time four-wheel drive system with a standard diff lock for conquering more challenging terrain.
The D-Max 45 is differentiated from LSE models thanks to the addition of a gloss black grille with contrasting lower fog lamp facia accent garnish, 18-inch gloss black alloy wheels with distinctive silver ring caps and a class yet practical black Rhinoman Xpedition canopy. The theme continues on the tailgate with a black Isuzu decal as well as special 45-year commemorative badge.
Easy access to the load compartment is facilitated with the inclusion of tailgate assist and a spray on bedliner.
The interior, which includes the LSE’s partial leather seat trim, also benefits from the addition of durable Bundi Basher rubber floor mats, which are ideal for dusty and muddy off-road adventures.
A wireless charger is included to keep your compatible smartphone charged at all times and compliments the nine-inch touchscreen multimedia system with integrated Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
The standard suite of safety features is carried over to this special edition model and this includes driver and passenger front airbags, side airbags, curtain airbags, a driver’s knee airbag and a far-side airbag between the front seats.
Active safety features include ABS with EBD, Brake Assist System, Electronic Stability Control with Traction Control, Hill Start Assist, Hill Descent Control and Trailer Sway Control.
A legacy of building bakkies in Africa for Africa
The Isuzu D-Max and KB before it, have enjoyed a long and proud legacy in South Africa and were responsible for creating and popularising the double cab bakkie segment which is now the mainstay of the local industry.
The inherent practicality, versatility and go-anywhere capability offered by this type of vehicle has made bakkies top sellers in South Africa.
The D-Max has consistently been a leading contender in the segment, whether it’s for commercial applications with the trusted D-Max single cab, empowering the agricultural industry with the tough D-Max Extended Cab or as a family-oriented leisure vehicle with the all-encompassing D-Max Double Cab.
Over its seven iterations, the Isuzu bakkie range has remained one of the most compelling and popular models in the light commercial vehicle segment, since the first-generation KB came off the Kempston road production line in Port Elizabeth in 1979.
The Isuzu bakkie range is credited with numerous trend-setting innovations over the years, including becoming the first bakkie to feature rack and pinion steering and independent front suspension in 1981.
In 1993 the pioneering Turbo Blazer version of the KB was launched marking the first time that a South African manufacturer offered a turbocharged petrol-powered bakkie.
This was followed by the creation of the double cab segment in the same year when the four-door KB260 LE 4x4 and KB280DT was launched, laying the groundwork for what is now one of the most popular segments of the new vehicle industry in South Africa.
In 2018 the KB name was subsequently dropped in favour of D-Max in order to align with Isuzu’s global naming conventions.
The D-Max remains one of the leading contenders 45 years after local production commenced and continues to be a firm favourite for bakkie owners who appreciate its fuel economy, low running costs and proven durability in the harshest conditions.

Getting your car serviced is an important part of responsible car ownership and is something you should take seriously if you value your safety on the road. If your car has a service plan, you will know that the registered dealership you bought it from will notify or remind you that you will need to bring your vehicle in for a service after you have travelled a certain number of kilometres. All cars have recommended mileage- or age-dependent major and minor service intervals based on how long certain car parts typically last before they need replacement.

Buying a car is one of the top three biggest purchases most people will ever make, so, understandably, you would want to be sure that you've made the right choice when looking at best-used cars for sale. South Africa has no shortage of great car brands and many options in terms of features, looks and reliability, so how do you choose? We've decided to narrow your list of options down a bit by featuring a selection of fairly recently launched cars that have made their mark in local and global awards categories, both for owner satisfaction and overall reliability.

Our country and, in fact, the world as a whole, is currently in a financially tight spot, as a result of the global pandemic and the economic disruption it has caused. But people still need reliable means of transport and if a new car just isn't a realistic option, you could always go with a used model. If your budget is minimal, you may be looking at cars with higher mileage on the odometer - cars that are always on the cheaper end of the spectrum. While looking at a Renault used car or any other used vehicle, you may wonder how much is too much when it comes to mileage. Where is the cut-off point where a car has just done too many kilometres to be a safe purchase?

The international COVID-19 pandemic and our current national lockdown in South Africa has given rise to an overhauled way of living and offering services.

So, you've had your eye on a flashy new car for some time now and are nearly ready to take the leap and purchase one. What if you could get that same car for less than the advertised price? We'd all be happy to save some money whenever possible and when it comes to buying a car, those savings can translate to tens of thousands of Rands, not just a few hundred. If you're certain that you want a new car or are stuck on a particular new model on the market, we suggest looking at buying a demo model instead of forking out for a completely new one, and here's why:

Sometimes your car will suddenly start acting up a bit and it can be either slightly annoying or render you absolutely stuck without transport for a good while. Knowing the difference between what you can leave to rattle a bit and when you absolutely have to get your car serviced immediately is not only smart but can also save you a lot of money - and possibly being left without a car for a few weeks while it's being repaired. Here are five warning signs that you should not ignore if they happen with your car;

If you have ever taken a look at the price boards at petrol stations, you've probably noticed the variety of fuels available and how they range in price. Unless your vehicle has a diesel engine, you have got a choice between 93 and 95 unleaded. Most of the time you wont be asked which you prefer and we will explain why in a moment. There is always a price difference between these two, with 95 always being a bit more expensive per litre than the 93 type. If you have ever wondered why that is, or why we even need two different types of unleaded petrol at all, read on.

Having your own car gives you a great sense of freedom and ability to be in charge of your own life. Being able to own a car, though, can be much easier said than done. Vehicle financing is always an option if you can't afford to buy a car in cash, but there are certain requirements for you to qualify for financing. Aside from proof of income and several other documents to verify your background information, you will also need to have a credit history for the financing provider to check. The reason for this is that they want proof that you are capable of paying back your credit and have a history of paying your instalments on time.

So, you've been searching through used vehicles for a while, scouring all over, and finally come across one that you love and just have to buy before someone else swipes it from your hands and the future that you've already begun to daydream about with it.

The prospect of driving a brand new car will always be exciting to almost any driver, but being able to afford driving off the showroom floor with a new sedan or the latest sporty used KIA cars for sale isn't exactly within everyone's means. Not only that, but some people simply won't need to own a car for several years, due to work or other lifestyle preferences. For example, someone who is working a contract job and wants to buy a car in Johannesburg but intends to leave the country after their work contract reaches an end isn't likely to splurge on a new car, are they?
