2026 Hilux just dropped. And it feels... Chinesey?
BYD Shark has 321kW. LDV has screens everywhere. Toyota's response? Dual 12.3" screens, 48V hybrid, and a luxury cabin.
Is the king playing catch-up, or is this evolution?

April 1 isn't a joke this year.
Petrol: R24.78
Diesel: R25.96
Increase: Up to R7.15 per litre
The government's getting R6.35 of every litre. The Middle East is on fire. The rand is crying.
Brace yourselves. 👇

The Chery KP31 does 1,300km on a tank. Johannesburg to Cape Town. One tank.
The Chinese have arrived. And they've brought a plug.

Just drove the 2026 Suzuki Swift on the N1.

R280k for 61kW of pure humiliation. But somehow I'm smiling. Make it make sense.

🚨 2026 Hilux feels "Chinesey"!
Biggest tech leap: dual screens, electrified power, luxury cabin.
But BYD, LDV & GWM had this tech years ago. Has the legend been reading their playbook?
The game changed fast.
