About BYD Mossel Bay and Oudtshoorn

At Southern Sea Motor Group, we’ve been proudly serving drivers across the Southern Cape for generations — a family-owned business built on trust, expertise, and a genuine commitment to our community. Led by father and son Gideon and Francois Knoetze, we’ve earned our reputation as the trusted home of Volkswagen in Mossel Bay and Knysna, and Ford in Mossel Bay and Oudtshoorn. For decades, local families have turned to us for reliable vehicles, honest advice, and outstanding after-sales care that goes far beyond the sale.

Today, we’re excited to bring the same dedication and local knowledge to BYD, introducing the world’s leading electric and hybrid technology to Mossel Bay, Oudtshoorn, and the Garden Route. Our long-standing experience with major brands has taught us what our customers truly value: dependable performance, cutting-edge innovation, and personalised support that makes owning your vehicle effortless and enjoyable for years to come.

We combine:

  • Proven international innovation — from BYD’s advanced electric and hybrid powertrains to the quality you’ve come to expect from Volkswagen and Ford.
  • Deep regional expertise — generations of Knoetze family insight into what works best for Southern Cape roads, lifestyles, and conditions.
  • Truly personalised service — treating every customer like a neighbour, with transparent advice tailored to your needs.
  • Long-term ownership support — expert maintenance, genuine parts, and ongoing care that protects your investment and keeps you confidently on the road.

Whether you’re taking your first step into electric mobility, upgrading to a more sustainable hybrid, or simply seeking your next reliable vehicle, our team is here to guide you with clarity, confidence, and care. At BYD Mossel Bay and Oudtshoorn, it’s not just about selling cars — it’s about building lasting relationships and powering a better future for our community, one happy driver at a time.

Welcome to the BYD family.
