LDV South Africa has made an emphatic entrance onto the national stage with the official launch of three game-changing models at the Festival of Motoring: the Terron 9 (from R699,900), D90 (from R799,900), and Deliver 9 (from R699,900).
Following an exclusive preview earlier this year, the full reveal captivated guests with a striking showcase, lively entertainment, gourmet food, and interactive experiences that embodied the energy of a brand on the rise.
With industry chatter suggesting that LDV could soon disrupt long-established competitors, the debut of these models signals a bold new era in South Africa’s motoring landscape. Built on the pillars of innovation, safety, and comfort, each vehicle offers outstanding value and is available in a variety of colours tailored to suit every lifestyle.
Terron 9: Power Meets Elegance
The LDV Terron 9 is an SUV that strikes the perfect balance between rugged capability and refined luxury. Powered by a 2.5L turbo-diesel engine delivering 163kW and 520Nm of torque, and paired with an 8-speed ZF automatic transmission, it’s engineered for performance.
Its 4×4 capability and class-leading 3,500kg towing capacity make it one of the most versatile SUVs in its segment. Visually, it makes a statement with bold exterior styling, while the electric derivative introduces a closed grille and distinctive C-shaped lighting.
Inside, drivers and passengers are treated to premium leather upholstery, dual digital displays, and a suite of advanced safety technologies, including seven airbags and a 5-star ANCAP rating. Available in Elite, Premium, and Flagship derivatives, the Terron 9 brings premium motoring within reach.
D90: Designed for Families
The LDV D90 redefines the family SUV experience. Spacious, sophisticated, and equipped with cutting-edge features, this seven-seater delivers both comfort and capability.
Highlights include heated and ventilated massage seats, adaptive cruise control, and lane-keep assist for effortless long-distance journeys. Multiple differential locks provide added confidence off the beaten track, while the panoramic sunroof, 20” diamond-cut alloy wheels, and electrically operated tailgate add style and convenience.
A 360º camera, dual wireless charging pads, and a heated steering wheel keep the driver connected and in control, while seven airbags ensure safety for all. Available in Elite and Flagship trims, the D90 is a family SUV that raises the bar.
Deliver 9: Built for Business
For those who demand productivity, the LDV Deliver 9 is a commercial vehicle designed with business in mind. Offering a cavernous cargo volume of 12,330mm³ and a payload capacity of 1,580kg, it sets a new standard in practicality.
Its 236º rear-opening barn doors simplify loading and unloading, while technology like Android Auto and Apple CarPlay keeps drivers seamlessly connected. Safety is equally prioritised, with an ANCAP GOLD rating, comprehensive airbags, and a wide-angle reversing camera.
The Deliver 9 is more than just a van—it’s a business partner built to deliver.
