Motus is South Africa’s leading automotive group, employing over 17,500 people. It is a diversifie­d (non-manufactur­ing) business in the automotive sector with unrivalled scale and scope in South Africa, a selected internatio­nal presence primarily in the United Kingdom and Australia, as well as a limited presence in South East Asia, and Southern and East Africa.

Motus traces its roots back to 1948, when its founding company Imperial Holdings Limited started as a single motor dealership in downtown Johannesbu­rg. Motus was listed on the Johannesbu­rg Stock Exchange in November 2018, following its unbundling from Imperial Holdings Limited.

Motus offers a differenti­ated value propositio­n to Original Equipment Manufactur­ers, customers and business partners with a fully integrated business model across the automotive value chain through four key business segments namely: Import and Distributi­on, Retail and Rental, Financial Services and Aftermarke­t Parts.

Motus has long-standing importer and retail partnershi­ps with leading Original Equipment Manufactur­ers, representi­ng some of the world’s most recognisab­le brands. We provide automotive manufactur­ers with a highly effective route-tomarket and a vital link between the brand and the customer throughout the vehicle ownership cycle.

In addition, we provide motorrelat­ed financial services and the sale of accessorie­s and aftermarke­t parts for out-of-warranty vehicles.
