The Kaiyi E5 has become one of the cheaper new automatic sedans of its size in Egypt. Kaiyi Motors Egypt, the local agent for the Chinese brand, has cut the 2027 E5 Premium by EGP 38,100, from EGP 888,000 to EGP 849,900, Masrawy reported on 8 November. The agent did not say from which day the new price applies, so buyers should confirm it with a showroom.

The E5 Premium is the only version named in the new price list. It is a front-wheel-drive saloon with a 1.5-litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine making 156 horsepower and 230 Nm of torque, paired with a CVT automatic gearbox. It is 4,666 mm long, 1,825 mm wide and 1,483 mm tall, on a 2,700 mm wheelbase, and the boot holds 455 litres.

On equipment, the car has ABS with electronic brake-force distribution, stability control, hill-start assist, an electronic parking brake with automatic brake hold, a digital instrument cluster, a multifunction steering wheel, keyless entry and start, a wireless phone charger and air-conditioning vents for the rear seats.

The cut comes in a month of price moves in the Egyptian market. Several brands have raised prices in November, among them Nissan, which added up to EGP 63,000 to the Sunny and Magnite, while others, Toyota for its commercial vehicles, have held prices. A lower sticker on a car under EGP 900,000 is the less common direction.

Kaiyi's after-sales offer stays in place with the new price. The company pays for four of the car's first eight scheduled services, alternating with the owner and starting with the owner paying for the first, for four years or until the eight services are done, whichever comes first. The car carries a six-year or 160,000 km warranty, and the engine is covered for ten years or one million kilometres, whichever comes first.

Anyone shopping in this price range can now compare the E5 at EGP 849,900 with the price lists of its rivals this month; ask the dealer to confirm the price on the invoice and whether the servicing offer is written into the contract.
