BAIC’s Egypt operation has begun teasing two SUVs from its X family, sharing an image of the vehicles mostly covered in camouflage and hinting at an upcoming reveal. The image appears to show one smaller, lower SUV alongside a larger and taller one.

Egyptian reports say Alkan Auto, BAIC’s local distributor, is preparing to introduce the BAIC X55 and X7 on October 7. Those models are the leading candidates for the vehicles in the teaser, but BAIC Egypt has not confirmed their names in the post.

The teaser also points to new technology, and the local reports describe the two vehicles as range-extended electric vehicles (REEVs). BAIC has yet to publish official specifications, pricing or a date for the start of sales, so those details remain unconfirmed ahead of the announcement.
