- Chinese automaker Brilliance -- which achieved Internet fame for YouTube videos of cars virtually disintegrating in crash tests -- showed their full lineup and announced their intention to enter the US market in 3 to 5 years. By that time, most of their products will most likely have been replaced. The FRV is a small hatchback styled by Italian design firm Giugiaro, and it offers an optional 1.8 liter turbocharged engine. We have not got the turbocharged engine in Egypt, only 1.3 and 1.6 liter.
- Brilliance designed the M1 luxury sedan (Galena in Egypt) with help from German engineering firm FEV. The M1 is powered by a 168 horsepower 1.8 liter turbocharged engine. The 2.0 liter engine is the only available in Egypt.
- Brilliance says the M2 (Splendor in Egypt) was designed with Porsche technology. Their slide presentation said "National Excellent Vehicle". In quotes. Perhaps that's China's answer to the North American Car of the Year? The M2 is powered by a 1.8 liter turbocharged engine. Only available with 1.6 liter in Egypt.
- The M3 (Not marketed yet in Egypt) appears to be a slick coupe version of the M2 sedan. Like the M2, it is powered by a 1.8 liter turbo engine and features "interior and exterior trim design and chassis technology inspired by Porsche".
