The spotlight at the 4th edition of the EV Auto Show Riyadh, held from October 27–29, 2025, at the Riyadh International Convention & Exhibition Center (RICEC), shone brightly on a newcomer: the iCAUR V27 REEV SUV. The vehicle’s Middle East debut earned high praise from attendees and media alike for striking a perfect balance between rugged design and intelligent electrification.
The V27 REEV impressed visitors with its futuristic yet practical approach, signaling iCAUR’s determination to redefine mobility across the Middle East.
iCAUR’s Bold Entrance into Saudi Arabia
iCAUR, the dedicated new energy brand under Chery Automobile Co., Ltd., made a commanding appearance at the show. Its stand was bustling, drawing attention from industry leaders and visitors alike. The brand chose this prestigious platform to unveil the V27 REEV in the Kingdom for the first time.
Brand executives, including Vice President Mark, Country Head George, and Head of Brand & Marketing Muhammad Daniyal Khan, highlighted iCAUR’s commitment to the Saudi market and to driving forward a sustainable future.
What makes the V27 REEV especially compelling is how it perfectly suits Saudi Arabia’s blend of city driving and desert exploration. Arriving at a time when the Kingdom’s EV infrastructure is rapidly developing, it represents a timely and strategic move.
What Makes the V27 REEV SUV Stand Out?
At its heart, the V27 REEV is a range-extended electric vehicle, with the wheels driven entirely by electric motors, and a compact petrol engine serving only as a generator to recharge the battery when necessary.
V27 REEV SUV Key Highlights:
- Fully electric drive system, powered by a 1.5-liter petrol generator.
- Up to 200 km of electric-only range (CLTC standard).
- Total driving range exceeding 1,000 km (CLTC combined).
- Maximum power output of about 335 kW (449 hp), available in RWD and AWD variants.
- Distinctive, boxy SUV design praised for its adventurous and modern appeal.
For Saudi drivers, the V27 REEV addresses the key issue of “range anxiety,” delivering long-distance confidence without sacrificing the clean, quiet drive of an EV.
Why the V27 REEV SUV Matters for Saudi Arabia
The arrival of the V27 REEV aligns perfectly with Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030, which champions sustainability and advanced mobility solutions. iCAUR’s focus on smart, youthful, and outdoors-oriented SUVs fits naturally with local consumer preferences.
In a market long dominated by traditional-fuel SUVs, this hybrid-electric solution bridges the gap between practicality and innovation. The V27 REEV not only offers extended range and power but also embodies a lifestyle shift toward a cleaner, tech-forward future.
iCAUR has confirmed that regional launches are planned soon, with detailed pricing and specifications to be announced.
