With temperatures in Dubai reaching record highs during the summer months, the last thing you want is to hail a cab that’s polluting the air even more. But fear not! The new electric taxis are not only eco-friendly, but also efficient and will keep you cool as a cucumber on your way to your destination.

The Dubai Taxi Corporation (DTC) has kicked off trials of a new electric vehicle from Skywell as part of its limo service. The aim is to help Dubai reach its goal of having emission-free public transportation by 2050, as set out by the Dubai Roads and Transport Authority (RTA).

The DTC is putting several models of electric vehicles from different companies through their paces during a trial period. The Skywell EV will be tested on Dubai’s roads over the course of three months to see how it performs within the DTC fleet, with a focus on customer comfort, safety, and security.
