Tesla formally enters the Saudi Arabian market
In a significant move, Tesla is set to make its official debut in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia on April 10, 2025, at Riyadh's Bujairi Terrace. This marks a significant move for Tesla as Saudi Arabia continues to diversify its economy beyond oil.
At the launch event, attendees will have the opportunity to experience Tesla's vehicle lineup firsthand. The Model 3 and Model Y will be available for test drives, marking Tesla's expansion into the Philippines. The company has also expanded into Chile, marking its official entry into South America.
In addition to the vehicles, Tesla's humanoid robot, Optimus, will also be showcased. The new Cybercab is also expected to make an appearance.
The factory, which will soon transition to building cars from the ground up with a capacity of 150,000 cars per year, will initially reassemble cars built at Lucid's factory in Casa Grande, Arizona. The kingdom has already attracted Lucid, which opened a manufacturing facility in 2023.
During a recent all-hands meeting, livestreamed to the public for the first time, CEO Elon Musk announced that Tesla plans to enter several new markets this year. The expansion into Saudi Arabia is the first, but not the last entry into a new country for Tesla in 2025.
Tesla's expansion into Saudi Arabia is a strategic move as the company aims to dominate the electric vehicle market in the region. The country that Tesla will officially dominate after Saudi Arabia in 2025 is China.
