Third-generation people-carrier offers new levels of refinement and versatility.

Long-distance commutes are often a nightmare and an uncomfortable experience. I have had the misfortune of travelling to Limpopo in the most cramped, uncomfortable taxis with such bad ride quality, it felt like the seats were scraping the tar road.

Styling-wise, the Sprinter has been refreshed and modernised and some nips and tucks have made it much sleeker and more appealing. Looks, however, are not that important in this sector as comfort, functionality and safety are key qualities in a mass people-carrier. This latter function can easily be taken for granted, but for those who often use taxis, we know how stuffy it can get, especially when those sitting near windows seem averse to fresh air! However, I am certainly more impressed by the individual USB charging ports. That is some business-class stuff right there!

This, along with lane keeping assist, reverse camera, active distance assist distronic —which automatically regulates the distance from the vehicle ahead and decreases speed if the vehicle suddenly stops or decreases speed. These are all optional extras, with the standard features being cross wind assist, which makes the van safer in adverse conditions on any terrain.

OPINIONISTA: Right or wrong: Controversy over the AU condemnation of Sudan’s military coupOPINIONISTA: Right or wrong: Controversy over the AU condemnation of Sudan’s military coupFrom 1952 to 2019, Africa has experienced 93 successful military coups. There have been 26 coup attempts since 2010. Prior to the ‘third wave of democratisation’ in the early 1990s, coups had become the primary mode for political transition and regime change. The recent reincarnation or re-emergence of coups in countries such as in Zimbabwe (2017) and Sudan (2019) illustrates that the continent’s democratisation progress is still under serious attack.
