The Toyota Hilux again put its stamp on the South African new car market by ending November 2018 as the best-selling bakkie for the month. Not only that, but it was also, once again, the number one selling vehicle in the country.
Following another strong showing, the Hilux amassed a sales figure of 3 235 units for the month, while its nearest rival, the Ford Ranger, could “only” muster 2 506 units. Both the Hilux and Ranger were the only bakkies to have sold in excess of 2500 units.
NP200 goes strong
The Nissan NP200, the sole remaining half-tonne bakkie in SA, slots into third place with 1698 units, followed closely by the Isuzu D-Max (formerly known as the KB) on 1 418 units. The Nissan NP300/Hardbody did its bit for the Japanese manufacturer to slip into fifth place on 1002 units.

In eighth place is the Mahindra Scorpio Pik-up with 166 units, and in ninth place the Nissan Navara (142 units).
The Toyota Land Cruiser Pick-up rounds out the top ten on 128 units sold.
