From Riyadh to Beijing The Five Biggest Automotive Headlines of the Week
We're back with our weekly roundup of the most impactful developments across the automotive industry—from cutting-edge launches and exclusive test drives to major strategic moves shaping the future of mobility. This week, Riyadh marks a historic milestone in smart transport, Xiaomi makes a bold debut in the EV segment, and global headlines swirl around Tesla, Bentley, and a politically charged trade deal. Here's what you need to know. Saudi Arabia Launches Pilot Program for Self-Driving Taxis In a regional first, Saudi Arabia's General Transport Authority has launched a pilot phase for autonomous taxis in Riyadh, with the participation of the Minister of Transport and Logistics, Eng. Saleh Al-Jasser. The 12-month trial includes 13 electric charging stations spread across seven strategic locations in the capital. While the vehicles operate autonomously, safety drivers are present during the initial phase. With a top speed of 100 km/h, the initiative reflects Saudi Arabia's strategic push toward innovative, sustainable mobility solutions. Xiaomi Enters the EV Arena with a Powerful Debut Drive of the YU7 Arab GT was granted exclusive access to test the all-new Xiaomi YU7, the luxury electric SUV that marks the tech giant's ambitious leap into the automotive world. Our colleague Ahmed Abu Jameel tested the 'Max' variant—the most powerful version—equipped with dual electric motors delivering a combined output of 673 horsepower and 866 Nm of torque. The YU7 accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.23 seconds. With such performance and refinement, Xiaomi signals it's not here to experiment—it's here to compete. Tesla's 'New' Affordable Car Is Just a Cheaper Model Y After months of speculation, Tesla has confirmed that its anticipated affordable EV isn't an all-new model but a lower-priced version of the existing Model Y. During the Q2 earnings call, CEO Elon Musk stated, 'It's simply the Model Y,' reaffirming the company's current focus on optimizing existing platforms instead of introducing new nameplates. While this strategy could offer short-term relief amid slowing sales, it raises critical questions about whether pricing alone can fuel Tesla's long-term growth. Trump-Japan Trade Deal Sparks Outrage in the U.S. Auto Industry A new trade agreement between former U.S. President Donald Trump's administration and Japan has drawn sharp criticism from American automakers—especially the Detroit Big Three. The deal imposes a 15% tariff on Japanese cars and parts, while U.S. brands manufacturing abroad continue to face tariffs of up to 25%. Beyond the numbers, the deal reignites the debate between protectionism and free-market competition, potentially disrupting global supply dynamics. Bentley Bentayga Speed Tested by Arab GT's Mousub Shashaa In a rare and exclusive drive, Arab GT founder Mousub Shashaa got behind the wheel of the latest Bentley Bentayga Speed—the most powerful version of the British marque's top-selling SUV. While the model has moved away from the iconic W12 engine, it's now bolder than ever. A key highlight is the Akrapovič titanium exhaust system, which adds an exhilarating acoustic edge to the driving experience. It's a clear example of Bentley's unmatched ability to merge ultra-luxury with uncompromising performance.

From Tuwaiq to Qasioun: building a bright future with hearts before hands
It has been nearly 15 years since my last trip to Damascus as chairman of the Saudi-Syrian Businessmen Council. Since then, bilateral business and investment activities have been suspended due to the geopolitical situation. Last week, it was a delight to witness the tremendous success of the first investment forum between the two countries, held under the new Syrian leadership and its government. Led by Investment Minister Khalid Al-Falih on the Saudi side, more than 20 government agencies and more than 100 private sector companies from Saudi Arabia participated in the forum. These represented various sectors, including energy, infrastructure, financial services, healthcare, agriculture, and communications and information technology. Approximately 47 agreements worth SR24 billion ($6.4 billion) were signed, covering a wide range of fields, including energy, real estate, finance, logistics, healthcare, and tourism. In his speech, Al-Falih emphasized that the forum reflects the belief that the private sector is a key partner in achieving shared investment goals between the two countries. He encouraged Saudi and international investors to explore opportunities in the Syrian Arab Republic and contribute to its strategic projects, thereby fostering mutual benefits across vital sectors. It is worth noting that the timing of the forum was ideal, especially following the lifting of global sanctions on Syria and the release of the revised investment law. The updated law aims to enhance the investment climate by offering investors more guarantees and incentives, streamlining procedures, and improving transparency. One of the signed agreements was between the Saudi Tadawul Group and the Damascus Securities Exchange, aiming to enhance cooperation in financial technologies, dual listings, data exchange, and the creation of investment funds to boost investment in Syria. Subject to regulatory approval, we at BMG plan to reopen our offices in Damascus, establish a country fund, take family businesses public, and offer advisory services for dual listings between the two exchanges. The new chairman of the Saudi-Syrian Businessmen Council, Mohammed Abu Nayan, who is also the chairman of ACWA Power, said during the forum that Syria and Saudi Arabia are one nation, and that 'we came to Damascus as long-term partners, not just traders. We, as the private sector, are committed to investing in Syria, and we have already begun.' With the direct blessing and endorsement of Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and Syrian President Ahmed Al-Sharaa, the path to Syria's economic prosperity has already been laid. Between the iconic Mount Tuwaiq in Riyadh and Mount Qasioun in Damascus, a bright future will be built — by hearts before hands. • Basil M.K. Al-Ghalayini is chairman and CEO of BMG Financial Group.
