Recent years have seen a rapid expansion in the online vehicle shopping offerings available to South African motorists.
However, as with any online transaction, shoppers need to proceed with caution as there are many unscrupulous individuals who are waiting to take advantage of motorists with offers that are simply too good to be true
The safest way to shop for a vehicle online is by dealing with reputable retailers, which are backed by brick and mortar facilities.
More than 75% of Motus customers start their car buying journey online and more than 50% of all Motus car sales originate from an online platform. The number of visits to physical dealerships has reduced, with customers now preferring to find their dream car online.
Motus is South Africa’s largest network with over 250 retail locations located across South Africa and they now offer consumers a host of online shopping solutions too. Motorists can shop a wide variety of vehicles across the Motus platforms, which include motus.cars, Motus Select and Auto Pedigree. All vehicles are owned and located at Motus dealerships across South Africa.
motus.cars makes online shopping easy, with a huge variety of quality new and used vehicles in a single convenient location. motus.cars allows customers to shop new car models from 25 OEMs and compare vehicles all in one place. Once they have found the car of their dreams customers can complete the process by applying for finance and having the vehicle delivered at their nearest dealership, without ever leaving their house.
Similarly the Motus Select website allows shoppers to browse for their next car from the comfort of their home or smartphone. Shoppers can refine searches via filters such as brand, model name or body shape. The vehicle of choice can then be delivered to their nearest Motus Select dealership, anywhere in South Africa.
Motus Select regularly has priced to go value for money vehicles on promotion as well as a wide variety of quality used vehicles for under R200 000. Motus Select also offer a variety of demo vehicles for sale, particularly from brands such as Hyundai, Kia, Renault, Tata and Mitsubishi.
Auto Pedigree has been selling high quality pre-owned vehicles to South African motorists for over 40 years. During this time Auto Pedigree has developed a reputation for offering high quality vehicles and great service. They pride themselves in offering the best quality used vehicles at a competitive price, which is why they remain a popular, trusted choice for South African vehicle shoppers.

All vehicles offered for sale by Motus, whether online or in Motus facilities are owned by Motus dealerships. Customers can shop with peace of mind knowing that they are dealing with a reputable brand backed up by qualified staff and brick and mortar facilities.
All pre-owned cars are subjected to a comprehensive check and the dealer will assist with the registration of the vehicle to the customer’s name, which means that apart from the in-house checks all used cars include a valid roadworthy certificate. The Motus used car quality control process eliminates the chances of any stolen or rebuilt vehicles being offered for sale.
Sophisticated design with a touch of modernity does not have to come at a steep price. Automotive excellence is no longer only a European standard, with many Asian car manufacturers going above and beyond with their offerings.
Take Hyundai, South Korea’s leading car maker, which stands out with its low-cost, economical buys. Renowned for their sleek design and plush interiors, they offer an elevated driving experience.
That said, when browsing through our curated collection of Hyundai pre-owned models, the Grand i10 Sedan may pique your interest. In the realm of automotive elegance, the pre-owned Hyundai Grand i10 Sedan stands out as a beacon of sophistication and comfort without the high price tag. Renowned for its sleek design and plush interiors, this sedan offers a driving experience that seamlessly blends style with functionality.
Redefined Aesthetics
The range carries two options for consumers to consider, both fitted with a 1.2L petrol engine and either a manual or automated transmission gearbox. The 4-cylinder engines reach max speeds of 167 km/h on manual and a 5.9 L/100 km fuel economy rate in the automated mode.
Graceful Design
Repurposed as the Grand i10 Sedan from the Aura variant in India, this car has much to boast. Starting with its design, while compact, it certainly has a contemporary feel and look. Fine lines and a robust grille are added touches to the exterior. It is a head-turner in the concrete jungle in our books.
Understated Luxury
Hyundai is not often associated with luxury exclusivity, but we can’t help but admire the interiors of the Grand i10 sedan on this one. Meticulous craftsmanship dots the cabin, from exceptional stitching to futuristic embellishments on the front dashboard. Although the cabin lacks shiny finishes, it is not cheapened in any way, which is appealing to consumers looking for practical elegance.
Hyundai is pushing towards more four-door sedan variations. Their last well-received effort was the iconic Elantra, which has sadly been discontinued. But the Grand i10 Sedan is more than a worthy replacement, in our opinion.
Book your test drive in one of our high-end Hyundai pre-owned models, from the Grand i10 Sedan to the Venue. Experience commitment, quality, and reliability you can trust with Motus Select.

Renault SA is currently considering the Arkana and Captur Hybrid E-tech models for introduction, these models promise combination between reduced fuel consumption and improved driving.
Renault are one of the pioneers of electric vehicles in Europe and they are now using their expertise in motor design, battery energy efficiency and energy recuperation and adding hybrid and rechargeable hybrid engines in order to increase accessibility to a broader consumer base.
The roll out saw Renault develop E-Tech powertrains, which are hybrid and rechargeable hybrid drivetrains for popular models such as the Clio, Captur and Megane.
E-Tech combines a traditional combustion engine with two electric motors, one for traction and the second in the form of a starter alternator. This allows the driver to enjoy 100% electric mode for up to 65km in a rechargeable hybrid E-Tech model. The electric drive, multi-mode gearbox, regenerative braking and large battery capacity all contribute to significant energy economy compared to combustion powered vehicles and result in around 40% less consumption on an urban cycle for a hybrid E-Tech model.
Renault South Africa are currently considering the Arkana and Captur Hybrid E-tech models for local introduction as these models promise a great combination between reduced fuel consumption and improved driving pleasure.
Both models utilise the same powertrain comprising of a 108kW E-Tech hybrid drivetrain that is economical and has the added benefit of reduced automotive emissions.
A four-cylinder 1.6-litre petrol engine, adapted to hybrid technology allows for excellent performance. Fuel consumption is reduced by up to 40% compared to an internal combustion engine, adapted to hybrid technology, which allows for excellent performance.
The petrol engine contributes 70kW while the e-engine adds 36kW and the high-voltage starter generator 15kW. The motors can operate independently or in unison, directing their energy to the wheels or to the battery. Regenerative braking combined with the high self-charge capacity of the 1.2kWh batteries and the efficiency of the E-Tech system optimises consumption. These vehicles can either be driven on electric power only in urban environments or when travelling on the open road, the electric motors assist the petrol engine when power is needed. This results in a combined fuel consumption figure of 5,0 litres per 100km.
Multi sense driver modes allow the driver to optimise settings for the engine mapping, power-assisted steering, ambient lights and digital screen via three driving modes.
