It is locally produced and for now the only car made in Saudi Arabia. The Saudi government promised to buy 100,000 Lucid cars over 10 years as part of the investment deal and building a factory in Saudi Arabia. Not out of the ordinary for governments to give companies money.

I wonder if there will be HiPhi police cars as well considering the investment.

I like the car and that they enable the company to produce more cars, go EVs! I just don't understand why you make it into a police car, but as I said, at least it looks cool 😎
