Raya Auto and Sungrow Launch Electra to Power Egypt’s Next-Generation EV Charging Network

Raya Auto, a subsidiary of Raya Holding for Financial Investments and Egypt’s first authorized electric vehicle distributor, has officially unveiled its new EV charging brand, Electra, in a strategic partnership with Sungrow, the global leader in renewable energy technologies and power conversion systems.

Electra introduces a full suite of home chargers, AC chargers, and ultra-fast DC chargers with capacities of up to 180 kW, designed to meet the evolving and diverse needs of Egypt’s rapidly growing electric mobility market. Powered by Sungrow’s advanced isolated air-cooling technology, Electra delivers ultra-fast charging speeds, intelligent load management, and high energy efficiency, setting a new benchmark for EV charging infrastructure performance in Egypt.

This partnership marks a significant milestone in the development of Egypt’s electric mobility ecosystem. By combining Raya Auto’s strong market presence, expertise in EV solutions, product development, integrated manufacturing, and after-sales support with Sungrow’s global R&D and technological leadership, Electra aims to deliver a faster, smarter, and more reliable charging network than what is currently available in the market.

Mohamed El Naggar, CEO of Raya Auto, commented:

“As Egypt’s first authorized EV distributor, we have embraced the responsibility of introducing cutting-edge technologies and building a comprehensive ecosystem to support their adoption. Bringing EVs to Egypt was only the first step; our mission is to enhance the entire user experience and remove the barriers that prevent customers from transitioning to electric vehicles.

Electra is a testament to this commitment. Through our partnership with Sungrow, we are not just delivering advanced charging technology; we are helping to drive sector growth and enabling more drivers to adopt EVs with confidence. With premium quality, high-speed performance, flexibility, and 24/7 technical support, Electra ensures a seamless, reliable, and elevated charging experience for every EV owner.”

Mostafa Mohamed, North Africa Director at Sungrow, added:

“With Raya Auto’s deep market expertise and Sungrow’s technological leadership, Electra will reshape Egypt’s charging landscape and accelerate the shift toward cleaner, more sustainable transportation.”

Looking ahead, Raya Auto plans to expand Electra beyond home and commercial charging to establish a wide network of public charging stations across East and West Cairo, major travel routes, and key intercity corridors. This expansion directly addresses one of the main challenges hindering EV adoption in Egypt: the availability, accessibility, and convenience of charging points.
