“No plans to introduce” electric Subaru Solterra to South Africa

Subaru recently unveiled its first electric SUV for the global market, and it will not be coming to South Africa.

Of course not, there's no power to charge the thing, and besides, who gives a toss about this third world toilet.

O but we will get the Toyota variant.
Although the Toyota will faces the same problems as the Subaru regarding cost and taxes, it is a Toyota, so it WILL sell.

I understand why they wouldn't bring it here. Subaru has a very small dealership network and of course the issue of loadshedding doesn't make it easier to introduce it to South Africa.

I reckon they may introduce it eventually after the VW Id4 and Toyota variant (sorry guys I forgot the name) land locally and see how the sales of these vehicles are.
