CAIRO, May 20 (MENA) – The Egyptian state attaches great importance to localizing the electric vehicle manufacturing, and is looking forward to cooperating with China on such an important file, especially in light of China's position as an EV market leader, Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly said.

He noted that under an agreement signed today between Kasrawy Group and the Chinese company, the new car models of Jetour T1 and T2 will be assembled locally for the first time. The government is now focusing on increasing local component ratio in assembling the new Jetour models, and any other future models, the premier said.
