Saudi Arabia will host the first of its kind e-Motor Show in the Middle East for electric and hybrid cars between February 25 and 28, with the participation of major car manufacturers and agents.
The e-Motor Show-Middle East will highlight recent developments in the electric and hybrid vehicles sector and clean technologies in the region, which are expected to become a natural part of the environmental transportation system, given the advanced technical capabilities and the promising opportunities.
Saudi Vision 2030 encourages such industries that help build a competitive economy along with sustainable development and infrastructure that promotes the realization of the Kingdom’s strategic short and long terms objectives.
The show also aims to enhance public awareness about electric and hybrid vehicles, which reflects the future of transportation in the Kingdom.
In addition, investing in such types of vehicles is an important trend, both in terms of manufacturing, various applications, import and export.
Chairman of the Cars Agent National Committee at the Council of Saudi Chambers Faisal Abu Shusha said it was a “matter of pride” that such an important event is being organized inside the Kingdom.
He described it as a stepping-stone towards a prosperous future for modern transportation.
Abu Shusha stated it is important to prepare relevant policies and regulations pertaining to the electric vehicles (EVs) industry in both a clear and proactive manner.
He also called for activating the role of the private sector to provide new job opportunities and enhance the utilization of this technology.
Investing in the field of manufacturing electric vehicles in the Kingdom is something worth studying, especially as it falls in line with Vision 2030 and the national industry development program, he remarked.
