  • Attractive price with best features

    The BJ40 S with its 2.5 litre engine, offering the power of 250HP and 350NM is a good offroad SUV in the market. With safety, and good features at an attractive price positions it well if you see the options under SAR 200K. However, not everyone is really familiar with or trusts the Chinese brand, however, the numbers are starting to increase because I think the products are fine and priced well for people in the country. I think the Saudi Market is now seeing more and more Chinese automakers.

  • Great car with high tech

    Got to drive the Tesla Model Y in Jeddah for the last three months, and I’m so amazed with the great experience of this sleek and modern EV. What I liked? A lot, like the electric power which is not just smooth but also very quick, and the quiet ride unlike an engine vehicle is just so much fun. The Model Y is ideal for city driving and also highway drives too, with superb range and not to mention the fast charging. Love the interior too, which is clean, modern and very minimalistic, with a big touch screen and a lot of space.
