Rachel Kolisi has revealed her latest set of wheels, and it’s a major upgrade.

The mom of two announced on Friday night that she’s now part of the Jetour South Africa family. 

Sharing a photo of herself with the vehicle, she wrote: “Very excited and very grateful to be a part of the @jetour_south_africa family! Thank you @lmgsportsmanagement!”

Jetour is a Chinese SUV brand that officially launched in South Africa in September 2024.

The partnership marks an exciting new chapter for Rachel, who just weeks ago shared a humorous and heartfelt moment with her followers when she introduced her temporary car, a Toyota Yaris she nicknamed “Betsy.” 

In a since-deleted Instagram post, she opened up about the experience of navigating life’s ups and downs, saying: “Life has a funny way of humbling you just when you think you’ve got it all figured out. One day you’re riding high, the next you’re asking a friend to borrow their spare car and googling ‘how to parallel park a Yaris with dignity.’”

In a now-deleted Instagram post she showed off her Yaris.

She added with her signature humour and optimism: “It’s not forever. It’s just a chapter. But honestly? Betsy and I are kind of vibing, and I still nail clutch control.”

In the past, Rachel has been spotted behind the wheel of luxury brands like Mercedes-Benz and Land Rover. 

But her recent transparency about driving an older-model Yaris resonated with many of her followers, who appreciated her honesty and humility.

Now, as she climbs back into the driver’s seat of a brand-new Jetour, Rachel is once again blending relatability with inspiration, showing that every chapter, whether humble or high-end, has its place.
