In recent years, the Gulf country of Qatar has shown great favor towards Chinese car brands, with more and more Qataris choosing Chinese cars from government public transportation departments to ordinary consumers. This is a sunset scene captured on July 6, 2023 in Doha, Qatar. Xinhua News Agency reported that thanks to Qatar's policy of promoting new energy vehicles in the public transportation sector in recent years, China's car exports to Qatar will grow rapidly in 2024. According to data provided by the Chinese Embassy in Qatar, China's automobile exports to Qatar increased by 71.6% year-on-year from January to October 2024, with a total export value of 442 million US dollars. Shen Hui, General Manager of Yutong Bus Co., Ltd. in the Middle East region, told Xinhua News Agency that during the 2022 Qatar World Cup, 888 Yutong pure electric buses provided strong transportation support, picking up and dropping off nearly 100000 fans every day during peak hours, and continuing to serve the local bus network after the game. In addition, Qatar National Transport Company has also introduced Yutong's new energy light trucks and electric school buses to prepare for the comprehensive electrification of public transportation in Qatar. On December 15, 2024, the groundbreaking ceremony for the electric bus assembly plant jointly established by Yutong and Qatar National Transport Company was held in the Qatar Free Trade Zone. This is Qatar's first electric commercial vehicle assembly plant. Qatar's Transport Minister Mohammed said at the groundbreaking ceremony that establishing an electric bus assembly plant is in line with Qatar's national development strategy goals. Mohammed, CEO of the Qatar Free Trade Zone Authority, said that this cooperation marks an important step for Qatar in promoting industrial and transportation innovation and sustainable development. In the field of passenger cars, Chery Automobile's Jetour has become the fastest-growing Chinese car brand in Qatar in terms of sales. Jetour entered the Qatar market in April 2023, thanks to the rapid growth in sales of its star model Jetour T2. In the first 11 months of 2024, Jetour achieved the third highest overall brand sales ranking and the second highest SUV segment market ranking in Qatar, with a market share exceeding 12%. Abdullah, the owner of the Qatar Jetour, said, "I really like the Jetour T2. It not only has a high appearance, but also good performance. It is particularly suitable for driving in the desert on weekends to sand, and the general slope is not stressful. In addition, many Qataris will stay in tents in the desert for several months during camping season. It is necessary to have an off-road vehicle in hand, and the Jetour T2 is a great choice." Faisal, a car owner who specially traveled from Saudi Arabia to Doha to participate in the Jetour brand event last month, said, "I have carefully compared the off-road models of other brands, and the Jetour T2 is not only much more affordable, but also more intelligent. Now that Chinese car brands have entered the Saudi market, of course I have chosen Chinese brands
