Vehicles and driving in East London

East London is South Africa's only river port city, built at the mouth of the Buffalo River, and it is home to a large vehicle assembly plant on the West Bank along with its component suppliers. The N2 and N6 carry freight inland towards Bloemfontein and up the coast towards the Wild Coast, so trucks and long-distance taxis are a big part of local electrical work. Humid, salty coastal air is tough on battery terminals and connectors. Holiday traffic heading to Gonubie and the Wild Coast resorts adds caravans and 4x4s, while farms inland rely on bakkies and tractors that need dependable electrics.
