Riyadh – Sharikat Mubasher: Tesla is set to start deliveries of its much-anticipated Cybertruck in Saudi Arabia later in 2025, according to Reuters. The announcement follows the electric vehicle (EV) giant’s entry into the Saudi market earlier this month, marking its first official sales in the Kingdom.

The move comes as Tesla aims to replicate its success in neighboring markets like the UAE. With a growing, albeit still small, number of EV buyers in Saudi Arabia, the company sees strong potential for future demand in the region.

Tesla's push into the Saudi market aligns with the Kingdom’s broader vision to diversify its economy and promote sustainability through cleaner technologies. The availability of Tesla models, including the futuristic Cybertruck, may help accelerate the adoption of electric vehicles in line with Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 goals.

Despite facing global challenges, including declining sales and increased scrutiny over CEO Elon Musk’s political activities, Tesla appears to be doubling down on its expansion in the Middle East. The company hopes that Saudi Arabia’s evolving automotive landscape and rising interest in EVs will create fertile ground for long-term growth.
