Article Summary

Chery raised the Arrizo 5 price by EGP 20,000 across two separate increases in one week in Egypt — EGP 5,000 on October 15 and EGP 15,000 on October 22. The car runs a 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine with 114 hp and a CVT automatic. The hikes come amid a broader wave of price increases hitting Egypt's car market due to regional tensions and import costs.

Chery has raised the price of the Arrizo 5 by a total of EGP 20,000 across two separate increases in a single week. The first hike of EGP 5,000 landed on October 15, followed by a second EGP 15,000 increase on October 22.

Why Is the Chery Arrizo 5 Getting More Expensive?

Egypt's car market is under heavy pressure. Regional tensions have disrupted import flows and driven up the cost of sourcing vehicles, forcing dozens of models to adjust their pricing. The Arrizo 5 — the most affordable Chery model in Egypt — was hit twice in quick succession.

GB Auto, the local distributor for Chery, announced the second increase on October 22, just one week after the first. The combined EGP 20,000 jump reflects the broader cost pressure squeezing the entire market.

Engine and Performance

A 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine producing 114 hp sits under the hood. Buyers can choose between a manual gearbox in the base trim or a CVT automatic with 6 speeds. Acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h takes 11.5 seconds. Average fuel consumption sits at 7 liters per 100 km.

Those figures put the Arrizo 5 in direct competition with other budget sedans from Chery and rival Chinese brands. Performance is modest but adequate for daily city driving.

Safety Systems and Equipment

The car comes equipped with TCS traction control, ABS with EBD, and HSAC hill-start assist. Four airbags are standard, along with an ESM speed alert system. Interior features include leather-upholstered seats with multi-directional adjustment.

Will those features justify the higher price? The market will decide. Chery is working to hold its position as a go-to choice for buyers seeking an affordable sedan with reasonable equipment. The latest increase may push some shoppers to reconsider, but the brand remains among the lowest-priced options in its segment.
