Anusha was beaming with anticipation over the latest JMC bakkie to arrive at Bidvest McCarthy JMC Umhlanga Ridge. As the proud face of JMC at this trusted North Coast dealership, she's bringing something genuinely exciting to KZN's bakkie-loving community: the all-new JMC Vigus, and it means serious business.
Priced from R399 900, the Vigus arrives as a credible, value-packed double cab that refuses to be ignored. Under the bonnet sits a 2.5-litre turbo diesel producing 123kW and a muscular 430Nm of torque, with the kind of low-end grunt that makes light work of both the school run and the job site. Fuel consumption comes in at a claimed 7.0L/100km, which is genuinely impressive for a bakkie of this capability.
Inside, a floating 12.8-inch touchscreen with wireless CarPlay and Android Auto sets the tone for a cabin that punches well above its price point. Best-in-class rear dimensions and a flat centre tunnel mean passengers aren't an afterthought either.
A BorgWarner 4WD system with 4L low-range and optional rear differential lock ensures the Vigus is no urban-only softie. This thing will get down and dirty when you need it to.
Backed by the reliability of the Bidvest McCarthy name and guided by Anusha's passion for the JMC brand, Umhlanga Ridge just became the most interesting place to shop for a bakkie in KZN. Go say hello, they are at 2- 11 Sunset Close, Umhlanga Ridge.
