Cars on Egyptian Streets: Then and Now
See how far some of Cairo’s iconic cars have come along over time.
Cairo is nothing without her traffic, and what’s traffic without its cause? We’re not talking about poorly layered asphalt, the 1,049,291 potholes every 100 meters, or the death-wish pedestrians crossing the streets with the same nonchalant attitude as a comatose patient; we’re talking about the vehicles!
Of course, cars have come a long way over the years, from the bold futuristic designs of the 70’s, to the cuboidal office-inspired shapes of the 80’s and who can forget the funky 90’s? How about we take a quick trip down memory lane, checking out some of the iconic cars we’ve seen on Cairo’s streets over the past 50 or so years and how far they’ve come over time?
