Advanced safety features include lane-keeping assist adapt cruise control, remote locking systems and high beam LED lights equipped with auto adaption to the surrounding traffic.

Meanwhile, the initial commitment in bringing 500 commercial vehicles to the UAE in 2023, will help build the ‘green transportation industry’, especially in the lead up to climate change conference, COP28 next year, a statement said.

The company will provide multiple ways to support public and private sector businesses, through assisting with charging network requirements, managing after-sales services, as well as offering attractive leasing model arrangements.

Frank Bernthaler, chief operating officer, Admiral Mobility, said: “As we transition towards more environmentally-friendly energy and transportation solutions, we are proud to play a key role in building an infrastructure that empowers the government’s electrification strategy, and we are looking forward to supporting businesses as they move towards electric vehicles in the region.”
