Abu Dhabi: Automakers looking for more charging points for EVs

Automakers such as Audi, BMW, and MG Motors, along with several Chinese companies, showcased their luxurious electric vehicles at the Mobility Live Middle East event in Abu Dhabi. These EVs boast a mileage range of 250km to 500km, depending on engine type and pricing.

According to a German auto expert, electric cars are the future, and they have been receiving positive feedback from customers in the UAE. However, the lack of charging stations remains a significant hindrance. Despite the availability of technology and people’s interest in these EVs, there is a pressing need for more charging points. Even malls, which only have two or three charging points, are not enough.

A representative from the Chinese state-owned company, Chang’an Automobile, announced their intention to enter the UAE market during an exhibition. The company showcased two electric vehicles, Nevo and Deepal, with Nevo being the entry-level model priced at $25,000. The representative expressed their hopes of making a significant impact in the rapidly growing market.
