The Ford Bantam, produced from 2002 to 2008, was a compact pickup truck designed specifically for the South African market. It was a joint venture between Ford and its South African subsidiary, SAMCOR, and aimed to provide a robust and affordable workhorse for the region's demanding conditions. The Bantam was built on a modified platform shared with the Mazda B-Series, offering a combination of ruggedness and practicality. It was available in various trim levels, ranging from basic work trucks to more comfortable cab-and-chassis versions. The Bantam featured a 2.0-liter petrol engine or a 2.5-liter turbodiesel engine, offering ample power for its intended purpose.

The Bantam quickly gained popularity in South Africa, becoming a popular choice for businesses and individuals seeking a reliable and versatile pickup truck. Its durability and off-road capabilities made it particularly well-suited for the country's diverse terrain. However, despite its success in the South African market, the Bantam never gained widespread popularity outside of the region. Production ceased in 2008 as Ford shifted its focus to other models. Nonetheless, the Bantam remains a significant vehicle in South African automotive history, representing a period of local innovation and adaptation to meet specific market needs. Even today, many examples of the Ford Bantam can be found on the roads of South Africa, serving as a testament to its enduring legacy.
