Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) will launch the first-ever Dubai International Electric Vehicle Exhibition and Conference from 10 to 12 November 2026 at the Dubai World Trade Centre.

Held under the theme “Driving a Smart and Sustainable Mobility Future,” the event is expected to gather more than 300 local and international companies, alongside policymakers, investors and mobility experts. Over 10,000 specialist visitors are anticipated.

The exhibition will spotlight the latest advances in electric vehicle manufacturing, battery systems, hydrogen fuel cells, fast-charging technologies and smart infrastructure. Emerging solutions such as autonomous systems, drones and electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft (eVTOL) will also feature prominently.

A high-level conference will run in parallel, bringing together global leaders in EVs and smart mobility. Panel discussions, technical workshops, live demonstrations and a hackathon aimed at fostering innovation will form part of the programme.

According to the RTA, the initiative aligns with Dubai’s Net Zero Carbon Emissions Strategy and the UAE Net Zero Strategy 2050, while reinforcing its vision to become a global leader in seamless and sustainable mobility.
