Saudi Arabian Mobility Partnerships
Backlane and Lucid Partnered on Sustainable Mobility
Colin Smith — March 26, 2026Blacklane and Lucid have formed a strategic partnership to expand premium electric mobility services across Saudi Arabia. The agreement integrates Lucid’s electric vehicle lineup into Blacklane’s chauffeur service platform, beginning with the Lucid Air sedan and followed by the Lucid Gravity SUV as production scales. The collaboration supports Blacklane’s plan to double its regional operations by the end of 2025, with a focus on major cities such as Riyadh and Jeddah. It also aligns with Lucid’s objective to increase opportunities for consumers to experience its vehicles in the Middle East market.
The partnership includes joint efforts to advance electric vehicle charging infrastructure in the Kingdom, contributing to broader national goals for sustainable transportation under Vision 2030. Blacklane positions the initiative as its most extensive regional undertaking to date, aimed at expanding a reliable network of electric mobility options. Lucid highlights the collaboration as a means to introduce its long‑range, high‑capacity vehicles to a wider customer base through established chauffeur services. Both companies frame the partnership as a step toward accelerating the adoption of low‑emission mobility solutions and supporting the development of an advanced transportation ecosystem in Saudi Arabia.
