Benefits of Owning Electric Cars in the UAE
A revolution of sorts, Electric Cars are taking over the automotive industry with manufacturers such as Chevrolet, Nissan, Renault, and Tesla making headlines across the country. While Tesla has developed a niche for itself with high-performance electric cars, more affordable options like Chevrolet Bolt, Nissan Leaf, and Renault Zoe are equally impressive.
Benefits of Owning Electric Cars
Below are a few benefits of owning an Electric Car in the UAE:
1. No Petrol Costs
Electric Vehicles (EVs) are completely charged by electricity, eliminating the need to stand in petrol station queues every few days. Even with low petrol prices in Dubai, electric cars are cheaper to run than fuel-based vehicles, allowing you to save money.

2. No Emissions
Electric Vehicles operate on electrically-powered engines, making them 100% eco-friendly. They do not emit smoke or other toxic gases, significantly reducing air pollution compared to hybrid cars, which still rely on gasoline.
3. Reduced Noise
The motors on electric cars are significantly quieter than combustion engines, providing a more luxurious driving experience with minimal noise, primarily from road and wind.

Charging bays are also available at many major malls and hotels.
