Playing a drinking game, every time he says 'absolutely' take a shot of absolut vodka.

The EV tax section I had to watch 10 times because I couldn’t believe the amount we being taxed for cars 🤯

[@hlokomani]

Amazing amazing pod. So cool seeing this little KZbin channel I started watching in primary school grow into a company making an impact in the automotive industry in SA. Super informative

[@Carscoza]

This is amazing to hear, thank you kindly. We are proud of what we have achieved but it is all thanks to you for your support, ❤️🚙🏁

With over 73% of all new cars costing over R500K in South Africa it's a very exclusive club indeed, with most South Africans missing out. That's not ayoba. As for EV's, forget about it for at least 20 - 30 years in SA.

Hi I’m looking for Suzuki fronx n I see a lot of comments about shortage n waiting for delivery….is it possible that the cars on the website are not available at the dealerships?

[@matsobangkgomo7382]

ICE vs EV Internal Combustion Engine vs Electric Vehicle.... only petrol heads will understand those terms...

[@deonvanloggerenberg3711]

Congratulations on that collaboration. Now we know why cars are so expensive. We always knew but not that much! 🤔

[@deangeorgegomez1376]

Sorry sir but did you watch the full interview where the gentleman mentioned the 42% tax on ICE vehicles? That’s our biggest problem right there

[@deonvanloggerenberg3711]

@deangeorgegomez1376 Yes, I did watch, and that is exactly what I meant

[@deangeorgegomez1376]

Apologies sir I read your comment incorrectly because of being so blown away by this information

1 of those 15 car manufacturers should be South African with South African IP and for all major component to manufactured in SA like the engine, body , chassis and some electrical components. Even if it mean that it would be funded by a the government. International companies wouldn’t set up should in SA,if we didn’t have the manufacturing capacity, large consumer market, skilled labour resources and the technological sophistication we have in the country. So, what is stopping us from starting our own South African automobile company that would entirely manufactured in SA.

EV as secondhand car ...like buying the mentioned secondhand electrical golf-cart.. first thing that will be required is to replace the battery pack ... costing nearly as much as the car ..

[@MthimkhuluD]

If there is something I’m never going to buy it’s an electric vehicle .

[@spy2sa54]

Mr "absolutely"

[@adamolivier3497]

Makes no difference to have local car manufacturers as they any how price there cars at the same level as imported cars

[@francoisrossouw1656]

Agreed , the advantage comes to the manufacturer only using 3rd world labour.
