Saudi Prince Says Teslas Are Nice, But He Won't Race You to Buy
- Prince Mohammed rode in one of Musk’s cars during visit to LA
- Says EVs ‘will be a really promising industry in the future’
Saudi Arabia’s wealth fund may have recently bought a big chunk of Tesla Inc. But the country’s next king doesn’t seem that desirous of its electric cars.
Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman told Bloomberg News that he took a ride in a Tesla with the King of Jordan during a recent visit to Los Angeles. He enjoyed the experience, he said, though he wasn’t anxious to drive the car himself.
