This list contains a variety of All Wheel Drive vehicles driven across Namibia Cars are suitable to the the Namibian road terrain and accessible to the locals.

The No.1 place on this list goes to a well oiled piece of Machine the Mercedes C300.

1.Mercedes-Benz C300

The C300 might not certainly be on some of your budget list but list is not about affordability it is a great piece of machine in all it's context and outperforms almost all of them where it lacks in one department it makes up for in the other as much is we would argue that it is not made for the gravel terain it is tried,tested and perfected in this countries environment it is made for Namibia and the Namibian terain can easy tear any car apart if it is no suited to this climate in a day or two that where the C300 has an edge on this list of cars.

The No.2 place on this list is a car the local lot call the voerbah!, the Golf R.

2.Volkswagen Golf R

The VW Golf R has an enormous boyhood following in Namibia nothing unique to the Golf the Golf always makes it into the hearts of the young it's like having a Micheal Jackson for every Generation every year, since it's origin the Golf was made to appeal to the lower end of society but as times changed the German lower end became financially stable and so did their taste and the Golf had to change it's approach what's the use of selling something you don't feel will make it into the eyes of local car enthusiast the Golf might be a little highly praised and financially deafening but it still remained in a ear shot of its original followers.

The Hyundai Genesis is a worthy car in all its dynamics and easily deserves a place on this list at No.3.

3.Hyundai Genesis

The Hyundai Genesis is a new competitor in the affordable luxury department but it is clearly making a load statement and with factory brands like the Genesis its hard to ignore their effort it is constantly taking up all challenges in the Automobile market and some Namibian drivers who try to venture into new trends had a taste of the new vision Hyundai Genesis and seem to have liked it a feat much appreciated by the Hyundai Stuff.

The Jeep Wrangler Unlimited is a powerful tool in the legendary dunes of Namibia and takes No.4 on the list.

4.Jeep Wrangler

The Jeep Wrangler is not just a AWD it is practically a legend still in the heards of the 80's lot who followed the Makyver T.V series actually growing up to drive the predecessor of the legendary mini truck driven by their childhood hero, besides that it makes perfectctct driving even for a American made car it picks up well on acceleration and as decent steering and is more comfortable than it actually looks.

The 5th place on this countdown goes to a comedy icon the Mini copper.

5.BMW Mini Copper Clubman

The BMW Mini Clubman not your conventional AWD list maker is a small attractive little piece of art which one would mistake for a city car and not worth taking offraod but it handles extremely well offroad than it actually does on tared pavings this car of British origin even though powered by German Engineering has a long history behind it and that does not only include the Mr.Bean series it was build just like the VW Golf and was set to be in the same class with the Fiat 500 but staid far from it's humble beginnings to become what it was originally build to contest the gap in social equality but it's fame and brand would be in ruince if it had not change it's original brand.

At No.6 we have a car brand that recreated itself in this past 2 decades the Audi S4.

6.Audi S4

The Audi S4 just like the Mini had to change it's Brand sad for the original lot but it would've been dissolved by the VW Brand it had not make the leap into the luxury market and the transition was easy and painless since it's a original German Auto Brand the market just ate it up like a Luxury gap killer but the engineering team had just seem to have opened a new and untapped social class on its own and the Audi brand was went bezerck cars it Modern Designer trends in almost all of it's departments and the S4 the dynamic leader in the bunch archetype of the legendary WRC winning quatro.

The car that perfectly fits the purpose of this list in all compartments the Ford Fusion at No.7.

7.Ford Fusion

Ford Fusion is here because of class and ingenuity it's the closest thing to the original ford brand a car people actually liked in all its tasteless but original form you would just take a short climbse at it and say that a car right just typical thinks you expect when someone says that's a teenager despite its car look it hold its own,be it gravel or tared pavings it handles like a pro sports car and feels just like it should safe and comfortable even for a ford where one usually feel lonely a rare feat but well applauded.

The VW Tiguan is a worthy car to the addition to this list looking at it's offraod performance at No.8

8.Volkswagen Tiguan

The Tiguan the VW version of the BMW X3 and it actually ranked higher than it class mate not because of any unique aspect but because of it's incredibly night driving we all know Namibia is a very hazardous driving habitat especially on the tared paving and every little equipment counts on the gravel and the Tiguan has it in context and seem to become popular most possibly orchestrated by it Night Owl attributes.

A very popular car in Namibia barely used ofraod and mostly used for spotty affairs it's the Rav4 at 9th.

9.Toyota RAV4

The RAV4 very popular in Namibia mostly because it's a Industry Pioneers weapon of choice in Namibia that is and pretenders like to spot it for show and it just thumped every professional has one or has one on their minds it's good sale for Toyota,and it's not a bad car in anyway it hold down really well but at the end it's a Toyota they don't venture far from the customary you will find every think that is actually supposed to be in a modern day AWD and thats all.

It wouldn't be fair if we didn't have a Volvo on this list reason being the countries driving conditions at the final place we have the Volvo S4.

10.Volvo S60 T6

The Volvo S4 it's Safe,it's Safe and it's Safe it is a very well designed and oiled piece of Machinery it handles well offraod and has everything you will except from a competitive European Brand but mostly it takes on the Namibian Terain like a pro athlete at the Olympics diving course nothing below 8.2
