Commercial vehicles market in Saudi Arabia is forecast to be dominated by light commercial vehicles segment, followed by buses and medium & heavy commercial vehicles. With increasing government focus on diversification into non-oil sectors coupled with continuing growth being witnessed in Saudi Arabia's logistics sector, demand for light as well as medium & heavy commercial vehicles is expected to grow through 2020. Moreover, the bus segment is anticipated to witness the fastest growth rate in the forecast period due to strongly growing demand for public transportation.
