As DigiCars Group continues expanding its national footprint, it says the latest accolades it received further position the business as one of South Africa’s most recognised and rapidly evolving automotive retail groups.
“Every recognition adds to the credibility and momentum of the Group,” he says. “We are building a modern, high-performance automotive business that is focused on people, service excellence, and long-term growth. This recognition motivates us to continue pushing forward,” says to Dawood Olgar, the Group’s CEO.
DigiCars Group secured multiple top honours at the Absa Golden Partner Awards recently:
The recognition further strengthens the Group’s growing reputation within the South African automotive sector and follows Chery Northcliff previously being awarded WesBank Dealer of the Year earlier this year, reinforcing the dealership’s consistent performance and industry standing.
According to Dawood Olgar, the Group’s CEO, the awards reflect the strength of the Group’s people, culture, and long-term focus on customer experience.
“To receive this level of recognition from Absa is incredibly meaningful for our Group. These awards reflect the consistency of our teams, the standards we uphold across our dealerships, and the work being done every day to deliver exceptional experiences to our customers.”
Dawood says the achievements are the result of disciplined execution and strong leadership across the Group’s growing dealership network.
“We are extremely proud of our teams and management structures across the Group. Awards like these are earned through trust, commitment, consistency, and a culture that continuously pushes for excellence.”
He adds that strong relationships with key financial institutions remain an important part of the Group’s continued growth and success.
“Strategic banking partnerships play a critical role in the automotive industry, and we value the confidence and support that institutions like Absa continue to place in our dealerships. Recognition like this strengthens our drive to keep raising the bar.”
Electric vehicles (EVs) have introduced a whole new vocabulary into motoring. Instead of simply talking about litres of fuel, cylinders and kilometres per tank, motorists are now confronted with kW, kWh, AC, DC, WLTP, regenerative braking and a host of other terms.
Young South African motorists are increasingly opting for more affordable and practical vehicles as the cost of living puts pressure on household budgets, while still maintaining comprehensive insurance cover.
The row over BMW’s Spider-Man promotion is not really about superheroes. It is about trust, control and the creeping feeling that modern cars are becoming digital platforms first and private possessions second.
