In South Africa’s premium hot hatch segment, the 128ti competes with models like the Volkswagen Golf GTI, Mercedes-Benz A250 AMG Line, and Audi S3 Sportback. It stands out for its sharp handling, thanks to a limited-slip differential and M Sport suspension, as well as its bold design cues like red accents, ti badging, and dual exhaust tips. Inside, it offers sport seats, red stitching, a digital cockpit, and wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto. With its blend of performance, practicality, and premium flair, the 128ti is a compelling choice for enthusiasts who want a driver-focused hatchback without stepping into full M territory.
