Review written on 1/1951.
Several months ago I thought to my self. "Philadelphia Motors should really make a Compact SUV that is better than the Giza." Someone at Philadelphia Motors must of been reading my mind because I got my hands on the latest Cairo and gave it a test spin. I hope it's not as bad as the 8490 but the real question is: "How far behind does it lag to the Giza?"
The first stop for the Philadelphia Motors Cairo was the track. I won't lie. I was scared. This Compact SUV is built for performance. Philadelphia Motors cut no corners when designing this vehicle for speed. The vomit stains on the carpet prove that the 104 hp @ 3892RPMs 4778 cc I3 engine roars this rocket to a top speed of 90 mph in an impressive 17.480s 0 to 60 mph. With 113 lb-ft of torque, our smoking wheels were able to tow 2667 lbs. I'm guilty wanting to steal this one for my self. When it comes to driveability, we wished that all the roads in the world were straight. Sadly they're not, it is unfortunate that the Philadelphia Motors Cairo could not handle like its Compact SUV peers. In no way can I recommend this vehicle for anyone who drives on the road. It is an accident waiting to happen.
The Philadelphia Motors Cairo reminds me of jail. The longer you're inside of it the less you want to be there. The interior is drab and non-existent. Devoid of form or functionality. There is nothing there. Nothing to write about. Just horrible, cold, nothingness. And that is how you can best describe the Cairo's insides.
30 cu-ft puts the Philadelphia Motors Cairo roughly in line with other vehicles in its class. We would consider this to be enough space for everyday use of a vehicle of this type. We certainly wouldn't use it if you're looking to haul a bunch of junk around.
'Spare no expense!' and 'Perfection!' are known to be mottos of Philadelphia Motors. And they show this off in their Cairo. The build quality is no short of perfectly amazing. Hats off to their hard work.
If there was one vehicle I believe would be able to hit 1,000,000 miles easily it would be the Philadelphia Motors Cairo. This vehicle was designed for dependability in mind.
At this point in testing we would normally take the Philadelphia Motors Cairo out on the roads. However our test driver barely made it out of the parking lot before running out of fuel. The Cairo's ghastly 11.0 mpg means you'll need to take a few jerry cans, scratch that, a few barrels of fuel just to make it to the grocery store.
While talking with engineers at Philadelphia Motors we found out that the Cairo was designed to be nuclear bomb proof. While we don't really know if that is bluster, we do sort believe them. Specially when it ran through the concrete brick during crash testing without leaving a dent on the hood.
When it comes to Compact SUV there should be only one vehicle to think of. Have you thought of it? Did you read this article? It's the Philadelphia Motors Cairo the best Compact SUV I have ever driven! And the best one you've ever read about!
