The first episode of FCA What’s Behind showed the tests carried out on cars in the polar temperatures of Arjeplog. For the second episode, we are travelling some 15,000 kilometres south to Upington, in the Northern Cape province of South Africa, on the border with Botswana and Namibia, for tests in extreme heat conditions.

Johannesburg, South Africa, 15 July 2014 – Travelling thousands of kilometres through some of Namibia’s most challenging terrain is not a test that you take on lightly.

Padtoets: Ford Tourneo 2.2TDCi LWB
Sederberg Beproef!
Normaalweg durf ons altyd die Sederberge met ‘n 4X4 voertuig aan om ons geliefde ent pad tussen Matjiesrivier en Wupperthal te kan ry. Hierdie keer was dit anders want die geskeduleerde toetsvoertuig was ‘n nuwe Ford Tourneo bussie met sitplek vir agt, en belangriker nog, pakplek vir bagasie vir agt mense. Ondanks die vier vrouens se bagasie was daar nog steeds ekstra pakplek!
Bekendstelling: Chevrolet Cruze

Die Amerikaanse “Generaal” het die aanslag oorleef en veg terug met ‘n nuwe kruiser, askies, Cruzer. General Motors is lewend, en in die Ooste, springlewendig. Die jongste reeks uit GM van Suid-Afrika se stal is die nuwe splinternuwe Cruze wat hierdie week bekend gestel is.
