In a video shared on TikTok by a Kanatanka representative, he highlighted some of the benefits of buying a Ghana-made car, including exemption from import duties and assistance with licensing from the manufacturer.

The video sparked reactions on TikTok. Many Ghanaians criticised the high price, stating that most people in the country could not afford it. Others argued that the price was fair for a brand-new vehicle, especially one produced locally.

This is not the first time the price of Kantanka vehicles have been discussed. Kwadwo Safo Kantanka Jnr, CEO of Kantanka Automobile, addressed these concerns in the past.

He explained that comparing the price of new Kantanka cars to used imported vehicles was not fair and also said that many critics of the brand's pricing do not own cars and expect to buy vehicles for as little as GH¢2,000 or GH¢5,000.

To address affordability concerns, the CEO claimed that the company had introduced smaller cars priced at GH¢45,000.

This model, he said, was designed for ride-hailing services and taxis, offering a more accessible option for those in need of budget-friendly vehicles.
