SA's locally produced entry-level SUV now a step closer
The Star
|June 05, 2025
VOLKSWAGEN South Africa is gearing up to build a brand new entry-level SUV at its production plant in Kariega, Eastern Cape.
The new model is now a step closer to reality following a recent plant upgrade that saw the facility halt production of its existing Polo and Polo Vivo models for four weeks.
VWSA said 60% of the preparation work for the new SUV product had taken place during the December 2024 shutdown period, while the most recent shutdown, from April 14 to May 12, saw the remaining 40% of upgrades being implemented.
This included the programming of robots in the paint shop, completing all installations in the Body Shop, and modifying conveyors in the Final Assembly area.
