Many vehicles come and go. Most are duds like the Q9347 but a few stand out like the Giza. So this month, we'll be looking at the Cairo to see where it stands out among the crowd. Is this new Durack a keeper? Or should it rust away with time?

As always, our first stop with the Durack Cairo was the track. This Compact SUV may wow some people. It's certainly has better power and performance than most of its peers. The 101 hp @ 1985RPMs 4778 cc I3 engine is able to put a healthy amount of rubber on the road. When you do this properly, you're able to propel the Cairo to a top speed of 92 mph and drag times of 16.476s 0 to 60 mph are a breeze. If that wasn't enough with the 214 lb-ft of torque will melt the tires off the rims. When hooked to a trailer, this baby will haul an amazing 6433 lbs! Durack really did well with the Cairo when it comes to the track. I certainly think this vehicle is better than most in its class. On the track testing the Durack Cairo did have some slight issues. Of course it was not designed to be a track car. But as a Compact SUV it should have better handling than it does. In most cases in the real world this shouldn't be any problem. But it is still sub-par at best.

When it comes to comforts and luxury, the Durack Cairo isn't going to win any awards. It barely meets what you need in a vehicle. The seats are hard and uncomfortable for long trips. Features are a little barren, but it has the basic necessities. Material quality leaves a bit to be desired. We would not pay a premium price for this interior finish, but if you're looking for A to B transportation, it is almost tolerable.

Basketball players and sumo wrestlers should probably avoid the Durack Cairo. If not for any other reason, the 30 cu-ft of cargo and passenger space is slightly cramp for even an average sized person such as my self.

Serious effort goes into every Durack Cairo produced. The build quality of these vehicles is amazing! We could not find a single flaw in its construction while we were testing it. Everything fits properly, nothing is misaligned or misplaced. All of us here at GCM commend Durack in their efforts when it comes to the production of this vehicle.

The Durack Cairo is easily one of the most dependable vehicles ever made, it is excellently designed, excellently produced. And with just a little TLC will last forever and a decade.

While the Durack Cairo isn't the most economical vehicle, it is better than most. At 19.0 mpg, the Cairo is fairly close to average. If fuel economy is a major concern of yours, we would recommend another vehicle. Otherwise, it shouldn't be much of a factor in your decision.

While the Durack Cairo is certainly impressive in term of safety, it's not overly designed in this fashion in a way that would imped its enjoyment. Never the less this vehicle is more than safe enough for even the most uptight and poor drivers among us.

When it comes down to it, the Durack Cairo is one of the best Compact SUV on the market. For almost everyone on the looking for a Compact SUV, you won't find a much better vehicle than the Cairo. It testing team was astonished by the results. We give it our total and complete recommendation.
