In December 2025, FAW Bestune signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with two leading local mobility companies in Saudi Arabia, GOCAB and HANCO Group, and secured 400 intentional orders on site, marking a new step in its in-depth layout of the Middle East market. In addition to Saudi Arabia, the Bestune T99 is gradually expanding to other overseas markets such as Southeast Asia and Europe, with the goal of bringing high-quality Chinese automotive products to more global consumers and enhancing the international influence of the Bestune brand.
