    The last time we spoke about Formula E in Cape Town, it was a pretty bleak forecast with the 2022 event being scrapped.

    Today the news has just been announced Cape Town will host a Formula E race early in 2023.

    The Cape Town E-Prix is the first ABB FIA Formula E World Championship race to be hosted in Sub-Saharan Africa and the first major open-wheel race since 1993. For the first time, South Africans will be able to witness Formula E’s thrilling line-up in person as drivers race their electric-powered cars through the streets of Cape Town.

    South Africans will be able to witness the thrills of this high-speed fully-electric race in person, as drivers race their electric-powered cars at speeds of up to 280km/h passing by what is certainly one of the sport’s most picturesque routes, with Table Mountain in the backdrop and a distant view of Robben Island across the bay.

    A look at at the Cape Town E-Prix track that will debut on the #FormulaE calendar next season!

    Back in October 2021, co-founder and Chief Championship Officer of Formula E Alberto Longo said, “While we are of course disappointed to postpone our first race in Cape Town, we have received a hugely positive response from those in our ecosystem, all of which are excited to visit. Over the past 18 months, we have learned to be dynamic and flexible when delivering the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship and we look forward to working alongside our local partners to experience Cape Town when delivering its maiden race in 2023.”

    • Looks like the new Mercedes-AMG S 63 E PERFORMANCE was spotted testing in South Africa 🇿🇦

That start-up sounds pretty damn promising!

This thing packs a whopping 791 hp (590 kW) and 1,430 Nm of torque.

    • We waited a fair bit for the Tiguan R to arrive but that means it has been given enough thought and executed with the sort of German precision that makes us happy to have waited.

As fast SUVs go it’s a cracker, and with a price tag starting from R1,014,900 it is actually decent value in the segment.

It’s fun, aggressive when you want it to be and remarkably civilised when you don’t. Cars like this rarely make sense, but the Tiguan R is one case where that argument starts to change one's mind.

We cannot wait to drive the matching Golf next week!

    • The very first SA-spec BMW M2 snapped at BMW HQ in Midrand.

Zandvoort Blue would not be our choice but the looks have certainly grown on us. What about all of you?

    • If you’re expecting a faster, angrier and more focused version of the original 86, you’re going to be happy with this car.

Toyota finally gave the 86 more power. It’s not take-your-breath-away power, but again, it’s not made to win drag races. If you want more power, get a Supra.

Sure it is a bit more pricey this time around but it is a no-regrets kind of car that you will enjoy just as much today as 10 years from now.

Long live the manual transmission, especially when it’s packaged within something as fun as the Toyota GR86.
