Toyota South Africa surprises Toyota Cheetahs

The Toyota Cheetahs and staff are proud to announce that they have received a brand new bus courtesy of their sponsor, Toyota SA. This bus will be crucial to all the team's travel and logistical needs.

This HINO PREDATOR is the only bus in South Africa custom-designed for rugby players with wider seats and more legroom. The seats have a 180? recline position to allow players a good rest to recover and perform optimally.

A unique feature of the bus is the onboard WiFi from Vodacom with 100 GB Anytime Data, 100 GB Night Owl, and 100 GB Collab (for Zoom & Teams) for the passenger’s use.

Not only will the Toyota Cheetahs benefit, but the bus also offers Free State Women's Rugby and the junior teams of the Toyota Academy a comfortable, safe, and reliable mode of transportation.

The new Hino bus from Toyota SA demonstrates their commitment to supporting the Toyota Cheetahs in their pursuit of excellence on and off the field.

"The Toyota Cheetahs is extremely grateful for the continued support of Toyota SA, who has been a proud sponsor of the team since 2011," said Ross van Reenen, CEO of the Free State Cheetahs (Pty) Ltd. "The bus is a testament to the strong relationship between the two organizations and their commitment to promoting rugby in our Free State community and the broader South Africa."

"This bus will play an essential role in our team's success, and we look forward to putting it to good use."

"We believe in supporting and empowering communities." Said Leon Theron, Senior Vice President: Sales and Marketing at Toyota SA. "The Toyota Cheetahs is a source of pride for the people of the Free State, and we are honored to support them with this specially designed and beautifully branded bus."

The Toyota Cheetahs would like to thank Toyota South Africa for their incredible generosity and unwavering loyalty towards the Cheetah brand.
