Expansion of logistics infrastructures such as intermodal connectivity, logistics parks and ports are creating business opportunities for road freight industry in KSA. Increased investment in the development of roads, excellent cross-border connectivity with other GCC countries along with cheaper mode in terms of freight transport are the major growth drivers in the industry.

Potential of Electrical Vehicles in Saudi Arabia Market
EVs are slowly gaining traction with less than 0.5% of vehicles deployed as PHEVs in Saudi Arabia. Efforts to create a market for EVs are consistent with the Saudi Crown Prince Muhammed bin Salman’s Vision 2030 plan, which aims to reduce the country’s dependence on oil, diversify the economy, and implement a range of social reforms. The EV infrastructure in Saudi Arabia is still lagging behind, as the government is yet to install charging stations in public areas.
However, KSA could witness an LEV penetration between 5-7% by 2025. The neutral case scenario predicts KSA will build a framework like UAE such as free charging stations, discounted car registrations, toll exemptions, and other perks to incentivize people to give up their traditional cars for EVs. However, barriers such as TCO parity, high battery cost & infrastructure challenges such as mass deployment of charging stations in public area may slow down the adoption rate. Introduction of new model vehicles to provide greater choice along with promotion of greater levels of understanding of the capabilities, benefits and imperatives for adopting EVs will accelerate adoption.
