Built for durability and reliability
Thula’s ESV combines cutting-edge technology and advanced management systems to deliver exceptional strength, control, and versatility. With independent suspension, a low center of gravity and instantaneous torque, the Thula ESV is ideal for navigating the toughest of terrains.
Designed with fewer moving parts than traditional vehicles, the ESV promises a longer lifespan and incorporates regenerative braking, reducing wear on components while recycling energy back into the system.
Designed to be
eco-Friendly
Thula Solutions is driven by a passion for the African bush and a commitment to sustainability. Founded in 2017, we set out to develop greener ways to power eco-tourism, resulting in South Africa’s first all-electric, all-wheel-drive game vehicle.
Our vehicles are quieter, produce fewer emissions, and help preserve the wilderness we hold sacred. We continue to innovate, ensuring that future generations can experience the beauty of the bush while minimizing our environmental impact.

Financial Advantage of ESVs
Traditional safari vehicles travel about 75 km daily
consuming around 12 litres of fuel per 100 km in tough terrain. That’s 270 litres per
month—costing R5,400 at R20 per litre. With solar-powered electric safari vehicles you can
eliminate fuel costs and cut down on maintenance offering a greener
more cost-effective alternative to combustion engine vehicles.
