2025 Peugeot Landtrek

Peugeot Landtrek

Peugeot’s Landtrek is gunning for the hard-working, budget-conscious South African bakkie crowd, but let’s be honest: it’s swimming with sharks. You’re not getting Ford Ranger or Toyota Hilux polish here, and Peugeot knows it. That’s why the Landtrek’s sights are set firmly on the Isuzu D-Max, Nissan Navara, and Mahindra Pik Up—workhorses for buyers who care about value and utility over badge snobbery. You get both petrol and diesel, but Peugeot’s all-auto approach is a bit of a head-scratcher in a segment where a manual still means control and trust on rural roads. Pricing? Listings stretch from R388,900 to R745,500, but most real-world deals are huddled around the R395k mark, which is telling: the Landtrek’s appeal is strongest at the lower end, where every rand counts. If you’re after the most bakkie for your buck, the 4Action Double Cab 4X4 pops up most often, its price swinging wildly from R399,900 to R745,500—clear evidence that spec upgrades push costs up fast. The Professional Single Cab 4X2 is Peugeot’s price warrior at a fixed R388,900, ideal if you pack smart and need a reliable tool for the farm or a small fleet. Used stock is barely broken in, with average mileage at 28,000 km and models from 2024 to 2026. The real catch? Peugeot’s dealer footprint is thin, and in South Africa, that matters. A bakkie’s only as good as the backup when you’re stuck between Upington and nowhere. Two new units listed hint Peugeot’s not abandoning the segment, but to convince Hilux and Ranger loyalists, they’ll need to prove the Landtrek can go the distance—both on our roads and in aftersales support.
