As Saudi Arabia's capital, Riyadh represents a key stage of these growth plans in the Kingdom, and the launch of these new facilities will provide the foundation for the introduction of an exceptional product offering from Stellantis in 2022.”

The launch of the new facility was achieved in a record time of just 60 days, following an extensive search to secure the location in Riyadh's premier automotive district of Khurais Road, where space is in very high demand.
