The Middle East is accelerating its shift toward electrified mobility, with Jordan, UAE and Saudi Arabia leading the regional charge. In 2025, Jordan has over 120,000 EVs (both 100% battery powered and plug-in hybrids) on its roads, thanks to strong government incentives, tax rebates, and charging infrastructure investments. The UAE has over 50,000 EVs registered in the country, due to its ambitious green mobility targets like Dubai’s Net Zero Emissions Strategy. Saudi Arabia, backed by massive investments like the PIF-funded Lucid Motors plant and Ceer Motors plant, alongside national EV infrastructure initiative EVIQ, is expecting to hit somewhere north of 25,000 EVs on its roads by the end of 2025.
Egypt also has a sizable and growing EV market, due to a growing middle class and rising fuel costs. This chart underscores how the EV transition is no longer a fringe movement in the region—it’s gaining traction reflecting both policy shifts and changing consumer sentiment.
