Ignite Your Success: The 31-Day Mental Preparation for 2026

It is unequivocally important to prepare for the year ahead—after all, 90% of success lies in the preparation. That is why, as usual, we are officially launching our 31-Day Mental and physical Preparation for 2026. Starting on a high is not just a goal; it's a strategic necessity to ensure a year filled with success and prosperity.
As Benjamin Franklin wisely stated, “By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.”

This initiative is more than a simple countdown; it’s a fundamental mindset reset. We are privileged to be reminding the hundreds of thousands of women in our dedicated all-female groups that greatness is not an accident—it is planned, prepared for, and stepped into with unwavering intention. These are the very women—showcased across our platforms—who ultimately receive the awards and trophies at year-end, standing out among the thousands of nominations we receive.

Here’s to walking into 2026 mentally and physically ready, focused, and unstoppable. 💫🚀

Volvo Car South Africa is proud to announce that the refreshed Volvo XC90 has been awarded the 2025 Top Safety Pick+ by the IIHS.

Despite stricter testing standards—including the updated moderate overlap front test—the XC90 achieved the highest overall rating of ‘good,’ with strong protection for both driver and rear passengers.

With upgraded styling, refined interiors, and advanced safety systems, the XC90 continues to uphold Volvo’s legacy of putting people first.

As Grant Locke, Managing Director of VCSA, says:
“Safety has always been the foundation of the brand… the XC90 continues to be a leader in the segment.”

ALCAZAR Diesel: The Ultimate Road Trip Contender
Introduction
If you’ve been scrolling through 7-seater options that don't feel like a compromise, stop right here. We spent some quality time with the Hyundai ALCAZAR, specifically the popular 1.5 Diesel variant, and let me tell you—it’s not just a stretched Creta; it’s a confident, well-rounded family MVP. This review dives into why this premium SUV is hitting all the right notes for long hauls and city commutes alike.
From the outside, the ALCAZAR means business. It successfully translates Hyundai’s ‘Sensuous Sportiness’ design language into a three-row format. The signature cascading grille, sharp LED headlamps, and diamond-cut alloy wheels give it a premium, commanding road presence. Crucially, the extended rear section is beautifully integrated, avoiding that awkward, tacked-on look. It genuinely looks bigger and bolder than its 5-seater sibling, making it feel like a substantial upgrade the moment you walk up to it.
Step inside, and the cabin is where the ALCAZAR truly shines. The dual-tone interior immediately elevates the experience, but the real star is the space. Whether you opt for the 6-seater captain seat layout or the 7-seater bench, the ingress/egress to the third row is surprisingly easy, thanks to a slick one-touch tumble feature. The captain seats are heavenly, and thoughtful touches like the dedicated wireless charger for the second row make road trips genuinely comfortable for everyone, not just the front passengers.
Safety and Infotainment: Tech That Matters
Hyundai has packed the ALCAZAR with crucial safety tech. Six airbags ensure comprehensive protection, complemented by Vehicle Stability Management (VSM), Electronic Stability Control (ESC), and a 360-degree camera system that makes parking this big boy a breeze.
On the fun side, the massive 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system is butter-smooth and visually stunning. Navigation is crisp, Android Auto and Apple CarPlay connect instantly, and the crystal-clear sound system turns your daily drive into a concert hall. The digital instrument cluster is also brilliantly customized and a joy to look at.
The heart of the matter is the 1.5-liter CRDi Diesel engine. While some might think a 1.5L is small for an SUV this size, Hyundai has worked magic as it produces a healthy 85kw and 250 Nm of torque. What does that mean on the road? Excellent low-end grunt. Paired with a 6-speed automatic, this engine is incredibly refined, quiet, and delivers fantastic mileage. Overtaking on the highway is effortless, and it never feels stressed, even with a full load of passengers.
Conclusion: Ready for the Long Haul
The Hyundai ALCAZAR 1.5 Diesel is more than just a big car; it's a sophisticated, feature-loaded package that genuinely respects its passengers. It looks premium, feels premium, and runs like a dream while keeping your fuel costs reasonable. If your family is growing and your travel bug is biting, the ALCAZAR is easily one of the best contenders in the segment right now. Go check it out—you won't be disappointed!
