Mansour Automotive, in collaboration with SAIC Motor Group (SAICMG), is set to establish a new manufacturing facility in Egypt for assembling both conventional and electric MG Motors vehicles. This initiative is part of the company’s broader strategy to boost local production of automobiles. The factory is expected to begin operations within the next two years, marking a significant step in Egypt’s automotive industry, according to Ankush Arora, Managing Director of Mansour Automotive, as reported by Asharq Business.
In addition to this development, Sharon Nishi, Chairwoman and CEO of General Motors (GM) Egypt and North Africa, revealed that GM plans to introduce two new models to the Egyptian market in 2025. One of the models will be an electric passenger car, while the other will be a conventional vehicle, further expanding GM’s presence and commitment to the Egyptian automotive sector.
These announcements were made during the annual Egypt Automotive Summit, underscoring Egypt’s growing importance as a key player in the Middle East’s automotive market. Both Mansour Automotive and GM’s new initiatives are expected to contribute to the country’s economic growth, create local job opportunities, and enhance the shift toward electric mobility in the region.
