Lucid Motors prepares to launch EV models in UAE

Lucid Motors, the luxury electric vehicle manufacturer backed by Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund, is set to bring its first models to the UAE, signaling the company's growing ambitions in the Middle East. Following the debut of its flagship Lucid Air sedan and the establishment of its regional studio in Riyadh, the brand is poised to make a significant mark in the region, leveraging the increasing appetite for sustainable and innovative automotive solutions.
