Saudi startup Ceer made public its first two fully electric vehicle models on Monday and said it will launch five more models by 2030 as part of Saudi Arabia's goal to create a viable auto industry to curb the country's dependence on oil.
Called Exobot, the futuristic premium electric sedan and SUV will start sales in Saudi Arabia in early 2027.
With designs reminiscent of cars from sci-fi thriller "Tron", both vehicles have "gullwing" doors that open upward.
Ceer has also removed the pillars normally found between a car's front and rear seats and relies instead on high-strength materials to provide structural support, Ceer CEO Jim DeLuca said.
"We wanted to make sure the world could see what Saudi Arabia is capable of," he said.
