Chevrolet Groove to Be Assembled Locally in Egypt with 145 HP

The Chevrolet Groove 2026 is set to join Egypt's locally assembled vehicle lineup through General Motors' plants, packing 145 horsepower from a 1.5-liter turbo engine. The new model arrives in two trims, LT and RS. The move expands Mansour Automotive Group's push into local passenger car manufacturing.

Chevrolet Groove Engine and Front-Wheel-Drive Setup

The regional spec numbers are straightforward. The Chevrolet Groove runs a 1.5-liter turbocharged petrol engine producing 145 hp and 255 Nm of torque, paired with a CVT automatic transmission and front-wheel drive. These figures remain the official regional reference until final specs for the Egyptian-assembled units are confirmed.

Groove Interior: 10.25-Inch Screen and LT/RS Trims

Inside, the Groove brings real substance to the compact crossover class. Both LT and RS trims get a 10.25-inch infotainment screen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, five seats. Up to 1,120 liters of cargo space with the rear seats folded in a 60:40 split. The LT makes do with a 3.5-inch driver display, while the RS steps up to a 7-inch digital cluster.

Chevrolet Groove Safety Features

Safety is a core part of the package. Standard equipment includes multiple airbags, rear parking sensors, and a rearview camera. That kit puts the Groove head-to-head with rivals like the Hyundai Tucson and Kia Sportage in an increasingly crowded compact crossover segment.

Made in Egypt: GM's Next Step

Local assembly is nothing new for GM. The company already builds the Chevrolet Optra in Egypt under the Automotive Industry Development Program. Now the Groove joins that list. Expect more vehicles carrying the Made in Egypt badge going forward.

The local launch could give Chevrolet a pricing edge in the crossover segment, leveraging an existing manufacturing base and proven Optra assembly experience. Final specs and official pricing remain under wraps for now.
