Vehicles industry in the Middle East
Within the Middle east, the vehicles market has increased overall over the years. Saudi Arabia had by far the largest number of vehicle sales within the GCC in 2018. As vehicle manufacturing facilities in the Middle East are not very well developed, the region is highly dependent on importing vehicles. During 2018, Toyota, a Japanese automotive manufacturer, was the leading vehicle brand in Saudi Arabia, holding the highest market share. However, initiatives are being taken to advance the region’s own vehicle manufacturing industry.
