With expected rise in electric vehicle infrastructure, the demand for electric vehicles would surge exponentially over the coming years. The sale of electric vehicles is concentrated in the Dubai Emirate on account of more than 200 EV charging stations in the region. The growth is also attributed to the availability of electric vehicles dealers in the region.

According to Ravi Bhandari, Manager, Research and Consulting, 6Wresearch, "Passenger cars captured the highest revenue share in the overall UAE electric vehicle market followed by the two-wheeler segment. Electric bus and truck had a non-existent share in the market as the EV models for the same are not yet available in the country."

Companies such as Solva Technologies are providing electric two wheelers in the country; however, the primary consumer base of electric two wheelers are still corporate based rather than individual based, "Ravi further added.

The future of the electric bus in the country depends on the result of the test runs and the government initiatives towards its adoption."

The EV market of UAE is still in the nascent stage and just few models of EV such as Tesla, Chevrolet Bolt and Renault Zoe are most prominently sold in the country," Prithu further said.
