General Motors (GM), in partnership with Al-Mansour Automotive, the exclusive distributor of Chevrolet in Egypt, has launched two fully electric Chevrolet models for the first time in the Egyptian market: the all-new Chevrolet Captiva EV and the Chevrolet Spark EUV. The launch marks a further step in GM’s collaboration with Al-Mansour Automotive to advance electric mobility solutions in Egypt, supporting the country’s national vision for sustainable transport, green mobility, and environmental sustainability.

General Motors announced the launch of two fully electric Chevrolet models in Egypt on January 14, 2026, in partnership with Al-Mansour Automotive. This move aligns with Mansour Group's strategy to drive the transition to electric mobility, in line with Egypt's clean energy agenda, while supporting the national economy through long-term investments and introducing advanced automotive technologies to the local market. The initiative aims to enhance the competitiveness of Egypt's automotive sector and provide consumers with smart, practical, and affordable mobility solutions.

The Chevrolet Spark EUV is positioned as a modern electric vehicle designed for younger drivers, offering strong value and competitive positioning within its segment. The all-new Chevrolet Captiva EV is a versatile, eco-friendly SUV featuring a comprehensive suite of class-leading technology, safety, and comfort features to meet the needs of modern families.

Both models come with comprehensive warranty packages, including an eight-year or 160,000-kilometer battery warranty, a five-year or 150,000-kilometer vehicle warranty, and three years of roadside assistance. These are supported by a nationwide dealer network and a 24/7 customer service center, aimed at building consumer confidence in switching to electric mobility.

Sharon Nishi, Chair and Managing Director of General Motors Egypt & Africa, stated that the launch represents a pivotal milestone in advancing GM’s global vision of zero crashes, zero emissions, and zero congestion. “With more than a century of automotive leadership across the region and over 42 years of Chevrolet market leadership in Egypt, GM is proud to build on this legacy by accelerating the transition to electric mobility—bringing advanced, reliable and accessible EV solutions tailored to the needs of Egyptian customers,” Nishi added.

Ankush Arora, CEO of Al-Mansour Automotive, said the launch of the Captiva EV and Spark EUV represents a strategic step in the company’s vision to accelerate Egypt’s transition towards electric mobility. He reaffirmed the group’s commitment to supporting the Egyptian economy through long-term investments and the introduction of the latest global technologies, noting that electric vehicles mark the beginning of a new phase in the development of the automotive market and its competitiveness, in line with Egypt’s national direction towards clean energy and green transformation.
