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
To further enhance the electric driving experience of Tesla owners in Qatar, the electric vehicle maker will open its first Supercharger station in Doha in January. A second location is expected to go online in February. These stations will offer a combined 12 individual Superchargers, each delivering up to 250 kW of power. This means that a Tesla can regain an impressive 200 miles of range in just 15 minutes of Supercharging.
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.
