Cheap Fast Cars In South Africa

1. Suzuki S-Presso – R162 900

Starting off our list of the 7 cheapest cars in South Africa you can buy in 2022 is the Suzuki S-Presso which now starts at R156 900.

Specifics on the new, low-priced S-Presso lineup from Suzuki Automobile South Africa have been made public which reaffirms that affordable mobility still exists. The manual and automatic versions of the new S-Presso, built in India, are powered by the same 1,0-litre, three-cylinder petrol engine found in the Celerio.

2. Mahindra KUV100 – R172 999

When Mahindra introduced the KUV100 to the local market in 2016, it quickly became the company’s most popular passenger vehicle.

The Indian manufacturer has made some significant updates to its well-liked KUV (Kool Utility Vehicle) range recently. Beyond just adding an Nxt extension, there have been aesthetic changes, new features, and the debut of a stripped-down variant of K2.

3. Renault Kwid – R180 999

There aren’t many new cars available in South Africa that are within most people’s price range. It’s true that once you drop below R180 000, your options narrow significantly.

Starting at R174 400, it outshines the competition on paper thanks to its 5-year warranty, 1 year of full coverage insurance, and a long list of standard features (which includes electric power steering, electric front windows, and Bluetooth audio).

4. Suzuki Celerio – R178 900

Amidst unprecedented fuel price increases, Suzuki South Africa has timed the release of one of the most fuel-efficient new cars to the local market.

It may have a small footprint, but don’t let that fool you; the Suzuki Celerio offers remarkable fuel economy, adorable styling, and increased interior space. Their compact Celerio couldn’t have come at a better time offering enviable fuel efficiency and a host of standard features

5. Mahindra Bolero 2,5Di Single Cab – R192 999

The Mahindra Bolero 2,5Di Single Cab Maxitruck Plus price is the lowest on this list, but it only sold 37 units in August. Small quantities of the Indian-built utilitarian vehicle left the sales floor, possibly as a result of the 2,5-liter four-cylinder engine’s underwhelming output of 46 kW and 195 N.m.

For its price, it is a great addition to our list of cheapest cars in South Africa for those looking for a basic bakkie to haul relatively light loads in.
