Dubai, UAE:The Dubai International Electric Vehicle Exhibition and Conference 2026 concluded at the Dubai World Trade Centre after three days focused on electric and smart mobility, charging infrastructure, artificial intelligence, and clean energy in transport. Organised by Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority under the patronage of His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, the event was held under the theme “Leading the Future of Smart and Sustainable Mobility.” It attracted more than 300 local and international companies and organisations, over 30 commercial partners, 120 speakers, and around 18,000 professionals and visitors.
The exhibition also marked the UAE debut of the Sky Nomad hybrid, which arrived shortly after its global launch in Beijing. Gargash Prime founder Shihab Gargash said the vehicle offers economical fuel consumption, a spacious interior, and three versions: five-seat, seven-seat and a seven-seat camping edition with a roof-opening tent. He noted that hybrids can reassure drivers hesitant to switch fully to electric vehicles. Sessions explored ultra-fast charging, vehicle-to-grid technology, charging compatibility standards, electric cities, fleet management, predictive analytics, smart logistics, energy storage, and electric aviation, including eVTOL aircraft, cargo drones, and airport charging.
Daoud Al Shezawi, Chairman of EV World, said future mobility requires an integrated system of EVs, charging, clean energy, AI and autonomous transport. Dubai’s hosting of the event supports its smart, sustainable transport development and the RTA’s goal of zero-emission public transport by 2050. The final day also saw Gargash Prime sign an MoU with EVS for after-sales EV services, signed by Shihab Mohammed Gargash and EVS founder and CEO Saeed Al Junaibi.
