This week we’re behind the wheel of the Renault Duster! On this week’s radio segments we chat about what it’s like to drive, where it fits into the market, and how it stacks up against some of its rivals. We also have interesting Duster news out of Europe!

One of those hidden gems...

Friemersheim is a small agricultural community about 15 kilometres North of Groot-Brakrivier. The road to Friemersheim only goes there, so its a quiet corner of the Garden Route you are unlikely to happen upon.

Dis nie meer net Petrol of Diesel nie. Dis deesdae ook Elektries, of ‘n kombinasie van elektries en brandstof. En met die nuwe energie voertuie kom nuwe terme, soos kilowatt-uur per kilometer en sulke dinge. Wat? Hoe moet mens weet hoe om dit te vergelyk met L/100km?

Ons ry die week die Volvo C40 en kyk sommer na hoe die infrastruktuur gevorder het en hoe die syfers vergelyk as jy die lang pad vat.

Build your dreams!

This week we are driving the BYD Sealion 6. As a PHEV it joins the band of Plug-in Hybrids arriving in SA from China. PHEV vehicles seem to be better than internal combustion cars in all metrics, from economy to performance, and thanks to the new Chinese arrivals, these are becoming affordable as well. On this week’s radio segments we talk BYD. Cars you can dream about.
