BMW, Fiat, Seat, Opel and Audi Round Out the Top Tier
BMW registered 2,335 vehicles in eighth place despite competing in the luxury segment. Fiat came ninth with 2,478 cars, followed by Seat in tenth with 2,279 units. Opel ranked eleventh with 2,180 vehicles, and Audi twelfth with 1,441 cars. BMW clearly outsold Audi by a comfortable margin.
Volvo Trails with Just 580 Units
Volvo registered only 580 vehicles in thirteenth place. That is a relatively weak figure compared to its rivals. Volvo focuses on the premium safety segment, but its high prices limit its reach. The full list reveals a clear German dominance over Egypt's European car market.
