Join the Weelee team on an exciting race between a car and the Gautrain to find out which mode of transport is faster and cheaper from Sandton to Pretoria.
The Gautrain, a R32 billion investment, has been a major mode of transport since 2011, with over 7 million users annually. But is it really the best option?
In this video, we picked a Golf 6 1.4 L TSI against the Gautrain in a real-world test during peak traffic hours.
