Soueast S05 prices in Egypt rose by EGP 20,000 in October, pushing the 2027 model to EGP 1.09 million from EGP 1.07 million previously. The compact SUV remains the cheapest Soueast model on sale in the Egyptian market, according to the updated price list from the local distributor.

Soueast S05 retains 1.5-liter turbo engine with 156 hp

The S05 is powered by a four-cylinder 1.5-liter turbocharged engine producing 156 hp and 230 Nm of torque. It mates to a 6-speed wet dual-clutch automatic transmission and sends power to the front wheels. This setup balances performance with fuel efficiency for daily driving.

Dimensions and cabin flexibility of the Soueast S05

Measuring 4406 mm in length, 1840 mm in width. 1654 mm in height, the S05 rides on a 2615 mm wheelbase. The rear seats split-fold 60:40, adding flexibility for luggage and interior space. It's offered in a single Highline trim.

10-year engine warranty boosts buyer confidence

The S05 comes with a 6-year or 150,000 km vehicle warranty, whichever comes first. The engine warranty extends to 10 years or one million kilometers, whichever comes first. Free maintenance is included for 4 years or 60,000 km, per the distributor's terms. This package could be a key draw in the compact SUV segment.

Soueast price increases across the lineup

The hike was not limited to the S05. All Soueast models in Egypt saw price increases, with the maximum reaching EGP 50,000. The move comes amid ongoing volatility in the Egyptian car market, adding pressure on buyers in a segment with fierce competition among Chinese brands.

The S05 serves as the entry point to Soueast in Egypt, combining compact dimensions, decent equipment, and relatively competitive pricing. Despite the latest increase, the long warranty package may keep it attractive to families seeking a small SUV.
