The media has blown a lot of smoke over the last few months over Philadelphia Motors's new Compact SUV. It has stiff competition though from market leaders like the Giza and even the bottom feeders like the Q9347. Does the Cairo live up to the hype? Find out more below!
On my first track run in the Philadelphia Motors Cairo suffered 2 cracked rips and a ruptured spleen. Not from wrecking it, but from the sheer raw power of this Compact SUV. The Cairo's 139 hp @ 4767RPMs 4778 cc I3 engine drives you into the seats while you accelerate with an impressive 14.546s 0 to 60 mph time and a top speed of 101 mph. The Cairo is able to keep this speed all the way up to the the top speed of 101 mph. The engine puts out 123 lb-ft of torque making it able to tow 2581 lbs which is average for this class. On the track testing the Philadelphia Motors 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. After my hospital visit, I came to the conclusion that this is the best Compact SUV I've ever tested on the track. Buy IT NOW!!!
When it comes to comforts and luxury, the Philadelphia Motors 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 Philadelphia Motors 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.
The manufacturing process of Philadelphia Motors has really found something. The Cairo seems like a hand built car through and through. The workmanship is amazing. Only fine artisans could produce something like this.
The Philadelphia Motors 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.
Here is a pro-stock tip. If the Philadelphia Motors Cairo sells any meaningful number of vehicles, be sure to buy fuel stocks! It's that bad! The Cairo gets an abysmal 11.6 mpg! This is not the vehicle for trying to save money on fuel expenses.
With some focus on safety, Philadelphia Motors Cairo has been able to outshine most in its class. It almost makes you believe the marketing hype that Philadelphia Motors does actually believe in the safety and security of your family.
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!
