MiWay Releases Animated Video Entitled ‘4 Reasons You Need Car Insurance’

MiWay has released its fun and educational animated video, ‘4 Reasons You Need Car Insurance’ [Link to: https://www.miway.co.za/blog/your-car/4-reasons-you-need-car-insurance], which is dedicated to explaining the top 4 reasons why everyone needs car insurance in South Africa.

Many people believe that because they adhere to the rules of the road, do not drive under the influence and always keep to an acceptable speed, that they do not need car insurance. After all, if you are such a good driver, why should there ever be any reason for you to be involved in an accident? The truth is that while you may be a good driver, there are plenty of other driving ‘duds’ on the roads who are not. With this in mind, accidents do happen – and all it takes is one small mistake. As a result, without car insurance, you risk your savings and your assets every time you start that engine.

The animated video is directed at both new car owners and at those who have previously been uninsured. It seeks to educate South African drivers about the importance of vehicle insurance and explains, in detail, how paying a monthly premium now can result in massive savings further down the road. The aim of the video is to educate, inform and empower all drivers to take responsibility and to make the right decision when it comes to car insurance.

Lexus Releases Pricing for Most NX Models, F Sport to Stick to

Lexus has released prices for its upcoming NX compact crossover, and they’re as ambitious as its styling is outspoken. Base MSRP is $ 35,405 for the NX200t with front-wheel drive the equivalent AWD model begins at $ 36,805. The hybrid NX300h is priced from $ 40,645, although adding AWD requires it up to a cool $ 42,235. The regular engine is a 235-hp 2.-liter twin-scroll turbo 4-cylinder—the initial turbo, ever, in a Lexus—while the hybrid employs a 2.5-liter Atkinson-cycle 4. A 6-speed automatic transmission is standard with the turbo, even though the 194-hp hybrid gets a constantly variable automatic with a “kickdown” feature for passing power.

The NX comes to market place in November, and the pricing reflects a higher level of electronic content, including a normal 4.2-inch TFT screen in the gauge cluster, a 7.-inch infotainment screen (activated by a mouselike Remote Touch Interface), and an obtainable wireless charging tray in the console. The regular audio includes HD Radio with Bluetooth wireless connectivity and a cache feature. Although the NX is based on the underpinnings of the RAV4 (which begins at a tame $ 24,565), Toyota asserts that almost 90 % of its components differ. NX pricing begins above the small luxury-crossover leaders, the BMW x1 ($ 31,850), Mercedes GLA ($ 32,225), and Audi Q3 ($ 33,425). Those are the competitors its wheelbase would suggest, despite the fact that its overall length points to the pricier compact segment of X3, GLK, and Q5 (which Lexus cites as benchmarks). As with the German targets, the base MSRP is just a beginning point.

Lexus plans no fewer than 5 NX trim levels: Base, Comfort, Premium, Luxury, and F Sport. Pricing for the F Sport, a handling-oriented package with no energy upgrade, has not yet been released, but package prices have been (like those for F Sport). Comfort brings a power tilt/telescoping steering column and 3-memory driver’s seat, adding $ 505 on the NX200t and $ 285 on the hybrid. Premium, which includes the Comfort content material, adds 18-inch wheels, heated/vented front seats, a moonroof, and LED turn signals and DRLs it tacks on $ 2890 to the NX200t, $ 2045 on F Sport (which gets its really personal 18-inch wheels), and $ 2670 on the Hybrid.

Next up would be Luxury, in which $ 4885 buys all the aforementioned, plus wood trim, a heated steering wheel, a energy rear hatch, rain-sensing wipers, leather front seats, and a towing package rated at 2000 pounds. The Hybrid won’t tow, but it can be capital-L luxurious for $ 4505 front-drive or $ 4665 on the AWD. We’ll save you a bit of math: the NX200t with AWD in Luxury trim appears like a $ 41,690 deal, which includes Lexus’s $ 925 destination fee. Then you enter the realm of stand-alone choices, topped by $ 2140 for navigation, which also adds 10-speaker audio, and $ 1160 for LED headlamps with automated high beams.

The NX is an crucial item for Lexus. Even though it has reined in the AARP-pleasing luxury-mid-size segment with the RX350 (beginning at $ 41,895), the compact segment is where the cool little ones hang out. The mixture of Angry Birds styling and a tricked-out cabin aims to establish Lexus in the eyes of upwardly mobile youth.

OMGCR-V: Honda Releases Initial Official Photo of the Enhanced-for-2015 CR-V Crossover

Right here is the 2015 Honda CR-V, which arrives just in time for the model’s 3-year mark since its last major redesign. We wish we could inform you far more about the well-known compact crossover’s midcycle update, but this is all Honda has provided us. A image, they say, is worth at least a brief blog post outlining an SUV’s cosmetic tweaks.
It is clear that Honda left every thing between the CR-V’s A-pillars and D-pillars completely alone, but the front finish gets a significantly-needed face lift, and we’ll go out on a limb and assume the SUV’s tail received nearly as much interest. (No images of the CR-V’s aft end have been released however.) Gone is the 2012–2014 CR-V’s somewhat ungainly mug, Honda getting streamlined the grille, headlights, and reduce fascia components. The chrome-ringed grille opening is sleeker than just before, its 2-bar design matching up nicely with the most recent Honda Fit and the upcoming Fit-based HR-V B-segment crossover.

Projector-beam headlamps lend the CR-V’s peepers a thinner and more contemporary appearance, even even though the light units’ outer dimensions remain more or significantly less the very same as the old ones. The thin-light theme continues with the fog lights, which reside in a pair of dashing chrome strips on either side of a vestigial skid plate. The wheel designs—at least on this apparently well-spec’d 2015 CR-V—are new, as properly.

---

Unfortunately, that is all we know about the 2015 CR-V for now Honda promises that full information—which we assume outlines any and all mechanical changes—will be released September 30. If you are an absolute CR-V nut, be sure to check back to this space for a lot more next week. In the meantime, compare the picture of the 2015 automobile with images of the 2014 CR-V.
