An electric off-road lineup launching in Africa is technically reasonable too. The more unstable fuel supply is in a region, the more the advantage of home-charging electric power pays off. I can't judge performance definitively without seeing the data, but it's a textbook development where EVs take root first from practical, everyday ground.

South Africa has high gas prices, so it seems like fertile ground for a shift to electric.
