History

Ceer Motors was formed through a partnership between the Saudi Public Investment Fund (PIF) and the Taiwanese contract manufacturer Foxconn.[7] Saudi Arabia's sovereign wealth fund is projected to partner with Apple Inc. to build a $9 billion facility that manufactures microchips, electric-vehicle components and other electronics.[8] The joint venture is part of an effort to diversify the Kingdom's economy apart from being oil-dependent, in line with the Saudi Vision 2030.[9][10][11]

The company will license component technology from BMW to use in the electric vehicle development process. Foxconn will develop the electrical architecture of the products.[12]

In June 2024, a contract worth $2.2 billion was signed between Ceer and Hyundai Transys, through which the Korean company will supply Ceer vehicles with the integrated electric vehicle drive system (EDS).[13]
