Vehicles and driving in Eastern Cape

The Eastern Cape is the historic heart of South Africa's motor manufacturing, with vehicle assembly plants in Gqeberha, Kariega and East London and a large component supplier network around the Coega and Nelson Mandela Bay industrial zones. Away from the metros, long gravel roads through the former Transkei and Karoo farmland shake loose wiring and punish lights and charging systems. The N2 hugs the coast where sea air corrodes terminals, while the interior around Komani and Graaff-Reinet sees cold winter nights. Livestock farmers, game lodges and Wild Coast travellers rely on bakkies and 4x4s with dual batteries and auxiliary lighting.

Farms: farm vehicles and tractor cabs need aircon repairs that cope with dust, heat and long hours
4x4s and overlanders: overlanders want the aircon checked before long trips through hot, remote parts of the country
Private cars: drivers need regas, leak tests and fan or compressor repairs before the summer heat
Trucks: truck cabs need aircon repairs so drivers stay alert on long-distance routes in summer
Dealerships and workshops: dealers need pre-sale aircon checks and regas so used stock leaves the floor cooling well
