Halala! Rachel Kolisi has started 2026 with a bang after upgrading from a Jetour X70 Plus to a brand-new four-wheel vehicle worth almost R680,000.

Rachel previously dominated headlines after swapping her sleek Mercedes-Benz AMG GLC 43 Coupe for a humble Toyota Yaris, but the downgrade didn’t last long. The entrepreneur and socialite bounced back after signing a new brand deal that landed her a Jetour X70 Plus.

Now, the mother of two has received a massive upgrade from the Jetour X70 plus to a four-wheel drive vehicle worth a cool R679,900.
