Car Wars Drive South Africa’s Top Auto Dealer to Add New Brands

South Africa’s largest car dealer is widening the range of brands it offers to ramp up revenues, as the country’s motor industry is reshaped by rising competition from Asia.

Motus Retail, a unit of Motus Holdings Ltd. is expanding its portfolio to include Haval, Honda, Suzuki, Tata and Mahindra to capture a larger share of a market that has been upended by the explosive growth of new car makers, most notably from China.
