Mastering the art of driving a 4x4 SUV can be challenging if
you haven’t received the correct training. The on-road handling characteristics
of a 4x4 SUV differ from those of a normal passenger car, while off-road
excursions offer many daunting obstacles that can be easily overcome with the
right driving techniques.
Land Rover South Africa has therefore decided to offer local 4x4 SUV drivers a complimentary opportunity to improve their on- and off-road driving skills though its Land Rover Experience training centres. The offer is open to anyone driving a 2005 or later year-model 4x4 SUV.
“It’s a unique initiative that nobody else has ever done before” explains Roland Reid, Marketing Director Jaguar Land Rover South Africa. “The Land Rover Experience prides itself in being the only local facility to utilise internationally accredited instructors and we are delighted to be able to make their extensive expertise available to all 4X4 SUV drivers free of charge.”
The half-day driving courses are designed to educate drivers on the specific characteristics of 4x4 SUVs and the techniques required in order to ensure a safe driving experience. It also ensures that drivers are able to use their vehicles to their maximum potential when the situation demands.
“While this initiative gives us the opportunity to enhance the skills of many South African road users and improve road safety, it is also a unique opportunity for motorists to experience the Land Rover line-up in a fun and educational environment,” adds Reid.
