Peugeot Landtrek →
Peugeot's one-ton bakkie launched locally in late 2021 with a 1.6 turbo petrol double cab, then expanded in 2024 with 1.9 diesel and single cab workhorse models from R396,900. Spec for the money is generous. An unfamiliar badge in bakkie country means resale trails the Hilux and Ranger by a wide margin.
Known for: well-specced underdog bakkie
Toyota Hilux →
South Africa's best-selling vehicle for most of the past two decades, built locally in Durban. The range runs from basic single cab workhorses under R400k to the new ninth-generation double cabs approaching R1 million. Used Hilux values hold up better than almost anything else on the market, which keeps demand strong even for high-mileage examples.
Known for: unkillable reputation and rock-solid resale
