(SARS) has frozen the imports of Japanese cars from Durban to Botswana

South Africa Revenue Services (SARS) has frozen the imports of Japanese cars from Durban to Botswana since last week Thursday, in what some say is part of the taxman's crackdown on the largely Indian owned 'fong-kong' dealers there who have been dodging tax.

Others say the freezing of the import cars to Botswana has been on the cards  after South Africa froze the sale of cars to Namibia and Zambia last year. Those  who say discontinuation of selling of the imports to Botswana was expected  point to rumours that were rife in December when some Durban car dealers  contemplated relocating to Namibian shores to flee the crack-down by the  South African government.

There has also been talk that the South African government has been under  pressure from car manufacturers there who complain that the Japanese  imports are killing their business in the region. The Japanese cars are not sold in South Africa but South Africans can buy them  in Gaborone where there are more than 40 dealers and later drive them in their  country with South African number plates, it has been realised. Whatever,  the Indian owned garages dealing in imported cars are said to be now stuck  with stock of cars they are unable to sell because of the latest stance by  the South African tax-man. On the other hand local car dealers have been  cashing in on the jittery situation in Durban to hike prices of the imported  vehicles as they will no longer be competing with hundreds of middlemen  who traditionally drive between South Africa and Botswana to get  their clients cars. Car dealers around Mogoditshane, the hub of the imported  cars, are painting a gloomy picture of the situation with leading Durban  dealers in Japanese imports reported to have been closed down by the  taxman in recent weeks, while the remaining ones cannot operate after they  were refused clearance certificates by the South African revenue services,  making it impossible for Botswana car buyers to continue acquiring cars from Durban. The freezing of Japanese cars to Botswana comes two years since clearance  certificates to Zambia and Namibia were discontinued by the South African  Revenue Services (SARS). Since then, Namibians and Zambians buying  Japanese imports have been beating the system by using Botswana where their  cars would be cleared before being driven to their final destinations in Zambia  and Namibia, Mmegi has found out.

Forester tS comes with Subaru'

Subaru has unveiled the Forester tS model for the Japanese domestic market (JDM in automotive parlance).

The Forester tS seems to have taken at least some inspiration from the S-Edition concept Subaru unveiled at the Australian motor show earlier this month. The tS comes with the same 2.5 liter Boxer engine turbocharged to 263 PS (193 kW) and 347 Nm of torque featured on the S-Edition concept.

In addition, Takeshi Uchiyamada, Toyota executive vice president, said Toyota will introduce six new gasoline-electric hybrid models globally by the end of 2012.

The plug-in Prius will compete with the Chevrolet Volt and the Nissan Leaf, both of which go on sale in the U.S. late this year. Uchiyamada said the company expects to sell slightly more than 20,000 a year and expects the price to be between $3,000 and $5,000 higher than the price of a conventional gas-electric
