As Chinese intelligent mobility companies accelerate global expansion, Central Asia has become a proving ground for integrated V2X solutions.
Now, attention is shifting further west — to the Middle East — where countries like Saudi Arabia and the UAE are actively opening new windows for cooperation in smart transportation.
Vision 2030: Driving Smart Transportation in Saudi Arabia

Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 positions digital transportation as a core pillar of national infrastructure modernization. The Public Investment Fund (PIF) is investing heavily in intelligent mobility — including autonomous driving pilots, smart traffic signal systems, connected highway infrastructure, and more.
Meanwhile, the UAE is advancing its smart city plans across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and Sharjah, deploying infrastructure for V2X communication, fleet management systems (FMS), and EV charging networks.
These developments provide real-world testing grounds and commercial opportunities for Chinese companies with V2X platforms, FMS products, and smart terminal solutions.
Chinese Carmakers in the Middle East: From Sales to Systems

Chinese NEV brands like BYD, SAIC, and Chery have already established sales and distribution networks across the Gulf region. Their exported models increasingly carry smart vehicle connectivity capabilities, and NIO and XPeng are exploring deeper tech collaborations.
The next critical transition lies in shifting from exporting vehicles to exporting intelligent systems:
▶ Middle Eastern countries have mature regulatory frameworks, requiring compliance in data governance, cross-border transmission, and fleet safety monitoring.
▶Most smart transportation projects are public-private partnerships (PPPs) or government-led initiatives, with high integration demands and long project life cycles.
▶ V2X and fleet platforms must be modular, quickly deployable, and customizable for multi-stakeholder use.
Three Key Capabilities for Platform Export

To seize these Middle East opportunities, V2X solution providers must demonstrate:
1. Local Compliance Expertise
Ability to adapt to local data laws and cross-border transmission rules.
2. Modular & Scalable Platform Architecture
Seamless integration with RSUs, edge devices, TCU/ECU units, and cloud backends.
3. Multi-Stakeholder Service Delivery
Simultaneously meeting the needs of OEMs, platform operators, city governments, and regulators.
Replicating Success: From Central Asia to the Gulf

Sirun has already deployed compliant platforms and terminal integration projects worldwide. Now, we’re working with multiple OEM partners to explore end-to-end smart mobility solutions for Saudi Arabia and the UAE — combining hardware, platform, and local operations.
This is not just about technology export — it’s about becoming a contributor to the next generation of intelligent transportation ecosystems in the Gulf.
The next frontier is here. And we’re ready.
