For R1m one would expect something like a 2l diesel, AWD and ideally an 8-speed ZF gearbox. These would add greatly to durability and usability. I have been a lifelong Honda fan, and we still have three in the family. My daily drive is a 2010 CRV 2.2 D-Tec auto Exec with AWD, now on 170k kms, and it still feels like it rolled off the assembly line perhaps 2-3 years ago. I would not trade it for this modern rendition, not even a straight swop! Sadly, I think Honda has lost the plot... The Chinese brands will beat them hands down.

Leasing or minimum deposit and 7 years payback to get the monthly premiums as low as possible. If you really need a car and don't care about it being new, Woodford does great long term rentals, with insurance and everything included. A Kia Picanto is R5k a month, with a R4k refundable deposit and 3000kms per month standard.

Once upon a time, top of the Range Rover Sport, C63 AMGs would cost between R700k-R1million. Everything about the Honda CRV defines how Honda has evolved. However, it may not be premium to justify the price tag... At that price tag there are other bigger and better options like the Fortuner and Everest. On the other hand when one compares like for like, the Chinese and Korean alternatives offer premium and affordable options. We wait to see the reliability of the revamped Chinese offerings.

Most of the models and brands mentioned in the video from competitors are 5 seaters, so you cant compare pricing. In my opinion the only brand that can compare to Honda is Toyota, in terms of reliability, service and maintenance costs in the long run. This is a car like a toyota that you can keep long after the maintenance plan has run out. You cant say that about a BMW , Audi or VW, unless you are loaded and can afford the costs. But please, in future compare apples to apples, 3rd row seating also adds to the price. The comfortable you are, the more you pay.

For a million you could by some income generate assets and not a car. I don't know if manufacturers assume that people are living in cars these days? I think back in the day a car was at least 1/3 of the value of a decent sized house in a nice neighbourhood. Now Its probably much more than that. My upper middle class friends still think this is too expensive, so my question is who are they making these cars for? I can only afford to buy second hand car at this rate.
