Saudi EV Buyers Have Tesla As Choice - How Soon Before More Chinese Brands Join In?
More Saudi car buyers are in the mood to give EVs a chance with more dealerships in the Kingdom set to announce tie ups with leading Chinese carmakers to speed up the process. After what seems like a long gestation period, Tesla finally opened its first outlet in April, while Saudi-backed luxury EV brand Lucid Motors has done some of the preparatory work in creating a conducive environment for non-fuel automotive options. But as happened in UAE, a range of Chinese-made EVs are set to be introduced in the Gulf's biggest car market over the coming months. (In the UAE, more than 10 Chinese EV brands made their debut starting late 2023/early 2024 and until now, and many of them have started to pick up buyer backing for them.) By end 2024, new car registrations of EVs in the UAE made up around 4%-5%, according to estimates – in Saudi Arabia, it was 1% of new car sales. 'Saudi banks are starting to offer favourable EV auto financing options, and dealers are working with insurers to come up with buyer-friendly packages,' said a dealer source. 'The UAE auto market created the blueprint to launch and push new EV brands. It can easily be replicated in a market like Saudi Arabia.' The Saudi car market is expected to account for 600,000 plus units a year by the end of the decade. If EV sales can make up 10%-15% by then, the game is on, say auto analysts. 'The EV penetration in Saudi Arabia is relatively low compared to UAE,' said Vishal Pandey, Director of Dubai-based Glasgow Consultancy Group. 'However, given the emphasis from Saudi Government on electrification, there is high likelihood that growth is going to be faster. 'There is still a perception issue among Saudi consumers in regards to EVs, as they are concerned about the high cost of acquisition, charging infrastructure, and the after-market service. Plus, there is also the resale value.'

Netflix Inks First Middle East Content Bundle Deal With MBC Group
Netflix has entered into its first regional partnership of its kind in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA), teaming up with MBC Group to offer a combined streaming bundle alongside Shahid, MBC's Arabic-language video-on-demand service. The collaboration brings Netflix content to MBCNOW, a new entertainment platform launched earlier this year by MBC Group. The bundled subscription will give users access to Netflix, Shahid, and MBC's live TV channels under a single payment plan — a first in the region for the US-based streaming giant. This strategic tie-up represents a significant move for Netflix in Saudi Arabia and the wider Gulf market, where competition in digital streaming has intensified amid rising local demand for both Arabic and global content. The bundled subscription will be sold in Saudi Arabia through major retailers and e-commerce platforms, with MBC stating that the plan offers more than 20% in cost savings compared to purchasing separate Netflix and Shahid subscriptions. The MENA region has long been a high-growth market for streaming services, with consumers increasingly favouring digital content hubs that blend local and international viewing. By joining forces with MBC — the region's largest media company — Netflix is positioning itself to tap deeper into Arabic-speaking households, particularly in the Gulf. 'This collaboration is part of our ongoing commitment to provide unparalleled global and local experiences for our audiences in the region,' said Bhanu Chaddha, Director of Distribution and TV Products at MBC Group. Mohammed Al Kuraishi, Head of Business Development and Partnerships, Middle East and Africa at Netflix, added that the move would bring users 'easy access to our service and an incredible variety of international and Arabic shows, movies, documentaries, and more.' MBCNOW, launched in February 2025, functions as an aggregator platform and aims to bridge traditional broadcast and digital streaming under one interface. The addition of Netflix further positions it as a go-to content hub for Saudi and Arab audiences.
