According to the African Products Growth Facebook page, Thembelani Zondo from Woodford, Bergville in KwaZulu-Natal, built the ‘car’ with his hands.
It’s not clear what materials he used, but the post references Zondo saving his Sassa R350 grant payments to purchase materials for the model car.
It’s not clear what engine is in the ‘car,’ but apparently, it has a top speed of 100km/h.
Thembelani spoke exclusively to Briefly News and revealed that he’s:
“Still creating it (the engine)…I’m using the generator and electric motor.”

South Africans responded to the viral post with their opinions; here are several comments:
Brian Madala said:
“How do I apply for R350? I want to build my own polo!”
Ayanda Lento said:
“This shows that this boy does not need this R350. If he needed it groceries would be priority more than this thing.”
Dìra Zama Mna said:
“So he’s buying materials with R350 while others who need it for food are being declined.”
