What an incredible couple of events!
On behalf of the entire Trekara team, we would like to extend a sincere thank you to every single person who attended our recent EGON Technical Session & Q&A. Your support, engagement, and enthusiasm made both events truly special.
From the detailed technical discussions to the insightful questions during the Q&A, it was clear that the overland community in South Africa is serious about clean, efficient, and future-ready electrical systems. The level of engagement reinforced exactly why we are so excited to be building the EGON brand locally.
A Special Thank You to Our Partners
Events like this don’t happen without the support of strong industry partners, and we are incredibly grateful for the collaboration.
Our Johannesburg Host
Bushtech Aluminium Canopies
A huge thank you to Bushtech Aluminium Canopies for allowing us to host the Johannesburg event at Bushtech HQ.
Their facility provided the perfect setting for a hands-on technical event, and their team went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly. We are especially grateful for their generosity in sponsoring one of the event’s giveaway prizes — a fantastic addition that brought even more excitement to the event. Thank you Robbie, Darren, Jason and the entire team!
Bushtech continues to set the benchmark for quality aluminium canopy solutions, and we are proud to collaborate with a brand that shares our passion for robust, well-engineered expedition builds.
Our Cape Town Host
Terrain Tamer 4WD Parts
We would also like to extend our sincere appreciation to Terrain Tamer for hosting our Cape Town event at their HQ.
Their venue created the ideal environment for technical discussion and networking, and the Terrain Tamer team were incredibly welcoming and supportive throughout the evening. Having the event hosted in a space dedicated to serious 4x4 engineering made it even more fitting for the calibre of discussion we had around power management and vehicle systems.
We truly value the partnership and the opportunity to collaborate with a brand so deeply rooted in reliability and durability within the 4x4 industry. Thank you Marinus and team!
Adventure-X
We would like to thank Adventure-X for sponsoring a battery prize for both the Joburg and Cape Town events.
High-quality power solutions are at the heart of modern overland builds, and Adventure-X’s contribution perfectly aligned with the theme of the session. The lucky winner's walked away with an exceptional prize — and plenty of inspiration for their next upgrade. Thank you Roberto for you contribution!
Kammatech Manufacturing
Thank you to Kammatech Manufacturing for all your hard work in bringing our Hilux behind-seat battery box to the market, and having the first production unit installed for display and demo purposes at the events.
Watch this space as there are other vehicles in the pipeline. A big thank you to Johann and Julie!
Community Matters
One of the biggest takeaways from both event's was the strength of the South African overland community. Installers, builders, and enthusiasts all in one room — sharing ideas, challenges, and solutions — is exactly how standards are raised across the industry.
As the exclusive distributor of EGON in Sub-Saharan Africa, Trekara remains committed to supporting installers with education, technical guidance, and products that simplify complex systems without compromising on performance.
This is just the beginning.
Thank you again for your time, your trust, and your support. We look forward to seeing you at the next one.
