Tesla has formally opened its online Design Studio in Qatar, marking a significant step in the company’s expansion into the Middle East. The update allows Qatari customers to configure and order their preferred Tesla, with deliveries set to begin in the first quarter of 2024.
A Seamless Electric Experience
The launch of the online Design Studio is just the beginning of Tesla’s commitment to the Qatari market. In early January, the company will also open a pop-up location at Doha Festival City. The location is expected to offer customers a chance to get up close and personal with Tesla vehicles. Visitors will also be able to test drive vehicles.
For added convenience, Tesla will also establish a dedicated Store and Service location in Doha during the first quarter of 2024. The facility should provide Tesla owners with quick and efficient service.

Supercharging Qatar

In a press release, Tesla highlighted that it is not only supporting electric vehicle owners with the Supercharger Network. The company also offers a range of home charging solutions, including the Tesla Wall Connector, which ensures convenient daily charging for EV owners.

Tesla’s new Safety Report shows Autopilot is nine times safer than humans
Tesla released its Vehicle Safety Report for Q3 2025, and it showed that one crash was recorded every 6.36 million miles drive in which drivers were using Autopilot technology.
Tesla’s new Safety Report for Q3 shows Autopilot technology contributed to accident frequency that was nine times lower than the national average.
Tesla released its Vehicle Safety Report for Q3 2025, and it showed that one crash was recorded every 6.36 million miles drive in which drivers were using Autopilot technology.
This is a stark contrast from the most recent data made available by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), which shows there is an automobile crash approximately every 702,000 miles.

The figure for Q3 2025 is slightly lower than the one that Tesla released in Q3 2024, which eclipsed 7 million miles between accidents for drivers using Autopilot technology.
Over the past seven quarters, Q1 has been Tesla’s strongest showing with the Vehicle Safety Report, with Q4 being the weakest. This is usually attributed to weather and driving conditions deteriorating toward the end of the year.
Q1 2024 was Tesla’s best performance so far, with one crash every 7.63 million miles.
Autopilot and Full Self-Driving have been a major focus of Tesla over the past few years, and recent versions have improved on what has already proven to be an extremely safe way to travel, as long as it is used correctly.
Tesla’s Full Self-Driving (Supervised) suite is a suitable way to allow the vehicle to navigate through any traffic setting and has been widely effective for day-to-day travel. With the data Tesla gets from its use across its vehicle fleet, it gets more refined and more accurate with every passing mile.
The company has teased the potential for completely unsupervised Full Self-Driving releases in the future, but Tesla has to solve autonomy before it can offer anything like that to the public.

Back in July, Tesla officially registered its presence in the Moroccan market with the $2.75 million initial capital investment, according to The Habari Network.
The move marked a formal attempt at market entry for the EV maker, and it could signal even more opportunities through its other business operations, like energy.
Morocco is looked at as one of the countries in Africa that is most prone to transition toward EVs, as its government has focused on renewable energy and strategic investments in transportation.
It also has local production advantages, as Renault operates a plant in Morocco.
