After months of build-up and anticipation, finalists in the Toyota Fortuner 4×4 Challenge were put to the ultimate test.
What is the Toyota 4×4 Challenge all about?
Four participants (chosen by the four media partners: Media24, Highbury Media, Independent Media and Tiso Blackstar) teamed up with four celebrities (or “heroes”, in challenge-speak), to compete in a range of super-challenging tasks. The grand prize? A Toyota Fortuner 2.4 GD-6 4×4 6AT!
The 2019 event marked the fourth instalment, incorporating elements from previous years as well as all-new challenges. This year’s edition required a combination of mental and physical fitness skills. And thanks to the sponsors – Garmin, Specialized and returning sponsor Salomon – who provided the necessary gear, the contestants were ready for battle.
How the action unfolded
The contestant/hero pairing took place at Pezula Resort in Knysna, by means of drawing colour-matching ping-pong balls, and the teams were announced: • Trevor Lagerwey & Olympic rower Kirsten McCann; • Michelle Meyer & Dakar racing champ Giniel De Villiers; • Jacob Maboja & dancer/choreographer Nkateko (Takkies) Dinwiddy; • Dieter Pey & Cheetahs rugby player Oupa Mohoje.
Cool and wet conditions added an extra element of challenge to each of the competitive tasks. Ouch!
