Kasrawy Group, the exclusive distributor of Citroën in Egypt, today officially announced the launch of the new locally assembled Citroën C4X.
The new Citroën C4X will be assembled at the Arab American Vehicles (AAV) factory in Cairo, a facility of the Arab Organization for Industrialization (AOI), in collaboration with Stellantis—Citroën's parent company.
This milestone highlights Egypt's ability to meet global manufacturing standards, and reflects the strong partnership between the private sector and national institutions in advancing local automotive production. It also reinforces Kasrawy Group's commitment to strategic growth in Egypt, in line with the national vision to localize vehicle manufacturing and elevate the local automotive industry through world-class quality and innovation.
Kasrawy Group unveiled the new Citroën C4X's features, available to Egyptian consumers in two trim levels: the entry trim 'Feel', comes well-equipped with Citroën signature comfort features and safety technologies. While the premium 'Shine' version offers premium styling touches such as a panoramic sunroof and advanced driver assistance features. With starting prices of EGP 1,289,000 for the Feel trim and EGP 1,449,000 for Shine, the C4X enters the compact crossover segment as a strong contender, reinforcing Citroën's commitment to offering European quality at accessible prices for the Egyptian market.
'We are proud to introduce the new Citroën C4X—now built by Egyptian hands. This milestone reflects our confidence in the strength and potential of the Egyptian market and reaffirms our mission to expand locally and deliver high-quality vehicles supported by local capabilities,' said Eng. Mostafa Hussein, Vice President of Kasrawy Group Automotive Sector. 'Our partnership with Stellantis continues to focus on customer-centric strategies, from local production and access to cutting-edge technology through AOI facilities, to competitive pricing and exceptional after-sales service. This launch marks the beginning of a new chapter in Egypt's automotive landscape—where global innovation seamlessly merges with local expertise to deliver vehicles truly 'Made in Egypt'.'
Similarly, Hesham Hosny, Managing Director of Stellantis Egypt, emphasized: 'The local assembly of the new Citroën C4X is a strategic move that puts the Egyptian customer first. Local manufacturing not only ensures more stable pricing in a dynamic market, but also enables faster parts availability, and more responsive after-sales support through Kasrawy Group's extensive network. This initiative reflects Stellantis' unwavering commitment to supporting Egypt's industrial progress and to delivering vehicles tailored specifically to local conditions—whether through performance on Egyptian roads or climate-adapted air conditioning. By assembling the C4X locally, we can better meet the growing demand, shorten delivery times, and enhance overall customer experience, making the C4X more accessible and reliable for Egyptian drivers.'
The new C4X is powered by a 1.2-liter turbocharged PureTech engine producing 130 horsepower and 230 Nm of torque, mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission. The design merges the sophistication of a fastback sedan with the practicality and elevated stance of an SUV, offering spacious interiors and a generous 510-liter trunk.
Since becoming Citroën's exclusive distributor in Egypt in May 2019, Kasrawy Group has driven remarkable growth by revitalizing the French brand through new model launches, competitive pricing, and improved aftersales services. In 2020, Citroën Egypt recorded the highest global growth rate outside France, with a 166% market share increase and over 5,300 units sold—despite pandemic challenges—positioning Egypt as a key market in the brand's global strategy. Achieving this remarkable success in a short time helped reinforce Citroën's presence in Egypt, and position the Egyptian market as a key driver in the brand's global expansion strategy.
Today, Kasrawy Group stands as one of Egypt's most prominent automotive distributors, known for its diverse portfolio of international automotive brands such as Citroën, Jetour, JAC, IVECO, and JAC Motors commercial vehicles. With a robust nationwide network of aftersales and distribution centers, the group continues to play a vital role in expanding Citroën's presence in Egypt, while contributing meaningfully to the transformation and growth of the local automotive sector.
