Segway expands Middle East footprint with first GCC flagship store
Segway Powersports has expanded its presence in the Middle East with the opening of its first Gulf Cooperation Council( GCC) flagship store in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, while introducing its new flagship sport sideby- side, the Super Villain SX20T.
The new dealership, which opened July 2, serves as Segway Powersports’ primary retail and customer experience center in the Gulf region. Located in Riyadh’ s Industrial North district, the facility offers product displays, customer consultations, test- drive scheduling, after- sales service and promotional events.
The launch is part of the company’ s broader expansion strategy in the Gulf, where demand for off- road vehicles continues to grow. Saudi Arabia represents one of the region’ s largest off- road markets, fueled by its desert terrain and a strong recreational riding culture. The country is also home to the world- renowned Dakar Rally, making it an important market for performance- focused off- road vehicles.
The Riyadh flagship store showcases Segway’ s complete Saudi Arabian lineup, including the Snarler ATV family( AT5, AT6 and AT10), the Fugleman utility side- by- side
