Al-Laith Al-Lami' Group had the biggest single presence. As the agent for ROX, JAC and Forthing, it covered three brands and three price points. JAC is the most affordable, Forthing sits in the middle, and ROX is at the top. The ROX Adamas is listed from SAR 320,000 and makes 475 hp from its range-extender setup.
Tesla in Jeddah gave visitors a chance to see the Model Y and Cybertruck side by side and book a drive. BYD Saudi Arabia, through Al-Futtaim, covered both sides of the electric shift with pure EVs and plug-in hybrids on one stand.
All powertrains under one roof: petrol, hybrid, range-extender and electric
The 2026 show was billed as the first in the region to put every powertrain in one hall, which helps if you're still choosing a technology.
Powertrain | How it works | Charging | Who showed it |
Petrol (ICE) | Engine drives the wheels | None | JAC, Forthing |
Hybrid (HEV / PHEV) | Engine and electric motor share the work | PHEV only | BYD, Forthing |
Range-extender (EREV) | Electric motor drives the wheels; a petrol engine only charges the battery | Optional | ROX |
Battery electric (BEV) | Battery and motor only | Required | Tesla, BYD, iCar, Silence |
A range-extender suits long Saudi highway runs: electric in the city, with petrol backup between Jeddah, Makkah and Riyadh.
