The Absa RUN YOUR CITY Series has two more Chery Tiggo 4 Pro Urban Vehicles to giveaway in 2023, one at the Absa RUN YOUR CITY TSHWANE 10K on Sunday 27 August and one at the Absa RUN YOUR CITY JOBURG 10K on Sunday 24 September.
“We are excited to celebrate the Absa RUN YOUR CITY Series’ debut in Tshwane in August, followed by our return to Joburg in September,” says Michael Meyer, Managing Director of Stillwater Sports and Founder of the Absa RUN YOUR CITY Series. “We’ve given away a stylish Chery Tiggo 4 Pro Urban Vehicle to the value of R308 900.00 in Gqeberha, Cape Town and Durban. Now it’s Tshwane and Joburg’s turn. Chery’s model range of SUVs perfectly complements the lifestyles of active families.”
Meyer adds: “To be in the running and stand a chance to win this amazing prize all that you need to do is: 1. enter the event (and pay the entry fee), 2. collect your race number (during the stipulated race pack collection times which are clearly stated on the event website) and 3. be on the start line on event day. The lucky draw will take place the morning before the race starts. The winner will then need to make his/her way to the finish to claim the prize. It does not matter whether they run or walk, as long as they complete the 10km route. Thanks to our partnership with Chery and Absa Vehicle and Asset Finance we are able to give back to our entrants. The lucky draw of this beautiful vehicle is a tremendous benefit for all runners.”
“Chery’s model range consists of the most advanced SUVs that will ensure the best driving enjoyment while complimenting the lifestyles of active families,” says Mr Tony Liu, Chery South Africa Executive Deputy GM. “We love that the Absa RUN YOUR CITY Series is a national series that is enjoyed by all in South Africa. Our goal is to help create memorable experiences for all South Africans #WithCheryWithLove #FunToDrive. We can’t wait to welcome the Tshwane and Joburg winners to the Chery Family.”
“We love to put South Africans behind the wheel of vehicles they can afford, and the Chery Tiggo 4 Pro offers great value in the local market,” says Charl Potgieter, Managing Executive at Absa Vehicle and Asset Finance. “We are excited to partner with the Absa RUN YOUR CITY Series and Chery in handing over the keys of a brand-new Chery Tiggo 4 Pro at the inaugural Absa RUN YOUR CITY TSHWANE 10K and at the Absa RUN YOUR CITY JOBURG 10K. For Absa it means that the winners and their families will be able to make their daily commutes with greater ease.”
