"With the addition of the Xenon XT range, Tata Motors now boasts of an impressive

Nissan South Africa has secured a 600-unit-a-month export order from Algeria for its Hardbody 1-ton
bakkie. The
bakkie units were previously supplied to Algeria from Nissan Motor in Japan.
Audi AG, a subsidiary of Volkswagen AG (Xetra: VW), is launching its double cab
Bakkie in 2020.
Even with its impeccable reputation for quality, comfort and durability, General Motors made numerous improvements to the six-time Synovate Best Quality Award-winning
bakkie. The Utility's sculpted body has been lifted a further 17mm to increase ground clearance to 170mm.

bakkie rolled off the assembly line last month and the plant was presently busy with the semi- knocked down assembly of the second batch of 60 units.
"There are many things to consider when buying a car and this includes whether to buy a
bakkie, sedan or a hatchback, a used or new car, a diesel or petrol model, an automatic or manual car, the colour, the make, safety features, and the interior", said Sandra Blaauw, Manager: Vehicle and Asset Finance at Bank Windhoek this week.
This week, a young Vistorina Amwele won the grand prize of a Land Cruiser
bakkie in the Vivo Energy Diesel Extra promotion campaign but this car will still serve her when she is old, and her grand children ask her how she got it.
