People in Qatar will be the first in the Middle-East to get behind the steering wheel of Volkswagen’s mid-sized electric SUV ‘ID.4’. German automotive giant said that Qatar will be the first market in the Middle East where ID.4 would be launched.
The automaker will also play its role in creating supporting infrastructure needed for growth of electric vehicles in the country. It will install charging stations in Qatar for electric vehicles.
Qatar is a key market for Volkswagen Group. Earlier this year in March, Volkswagen Group inaugurated its new regional headquarters at Msheireb Downtown. The inauguration marked a new business entity set up with the establishment of Volkswagen Group Middle-East QFZ LLC (VWGME).
This new regional headquarters is responsible for core business functions for the company in the region, including strategy, finance, human resources, information technology, procurement and legal operations. This new entity will lead and support the VW Group activities in all markets where the VW Group brands are active in the Middle-East.
The new regional headquarters and business entity symbolises the group’s commitment to Qatar and the region. With a presence of over 15 years, the company recognises the exceptional value it offers and plans to continue its growth together with local partners.
