The Egyptian new car market continues to satisfy this year, up 13% year-on-year in April to 18,500 registrations, which brings the year-to0-date total to 67,106 units, up 12% on 2012. The Chevrolet TFR, a previous generation Isuzu D-Max, tops the sales charts for the third consecutive month and the 5th time in the last year thanks to 1,882 sales and 10.2% share, logically maintaining its 2013 leadership at 6,832 units. However this month the Hyundai Verna (an Accent from two generations ago) is only 46 units below at 1,836 sales and 9.9%.

Hyundai Elantra

The Hyundai Elantra is back to where it belongs: in third position – which was its ranking over the Full Year 2012 – at 955 units and 5.2% but is still only #9 in 2013 so far. The Mitsubishi Lancer is stable at #4 followed by the Chevrolet Lanos and Aveo. Notice the Geely Emgrand EC7 brilliantly spending its 2nd month in a row among the Top 10 most popular models in Egypt at #8 with 525 sales and 2.8% while the Renault Sandero is up a mammoth 47 spots on March to land in 9th place at 503 units and 2.7%, potentially on the back of runout promotions on the current generation as the new model hasn’t launched yet in the country.

Kia Carens

Below, the Kia Sportage is up 11 ranks to #12, the Opel Astra Notchback lodges its third month in the Top 20 for the year at #18 and we welcome no less than 3 all-new models within this month’s Top 50: the Speranza Envy (aka Chery E5) lands at #27 with 160 sales and 0.9%, the Skoda Rapid is #29 at 151 units and 0.8% and the Kia Carens ranks 45th with 50 sales and 0.3%.
