RTA is set to host the first-ever Dubai International Electric Vehicle Exhibition and Conference from 10–12 November 2026
Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) is set to host the inaugural Dubai International Electric Vehicle Exhibition and Conference 2026 from 10–12 November at the Dubai World Trade Centre, under the theme “Driving a Smart and Sustainable Mobility Future.” The event will convene a diverse range of companies in the electric vehicle (EV) and sustainable mobility sectors, alongside decision-makers, specialists, and experts from around the globe.
The exhibition and conference aim to support national strategies driving the transition to zero emissions, including the Dubai Net Zero Carbon Emissions Strategy, the Dubai Clean Energy Strategy, and the UAE Net Zero Strategy 2050. The event will also reinforce the RTA’s strategic goals, attract high-quality investment, and promote circular economy initiatives, particularly in the recycling of EV batteries and the development of sustainable transport solutions.
Visitors will have the opportunity to explore advanced mobility technologies, ranging from electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft (eVTOL) and drones to autonomous systems. The event will serve as a global showcase for the latest developments in EV manufacturing, battery management systems, hydrogen fuel cells, and sustainable energy solutions. Complementary smart infrastructure innovations, including fast-charging technologies and solar energy applications, will also feature prominently.
The exhibition is expected to host over 300 local and international companies, authorities, and organisations, alongside more than 30 specialised business partners in autonomous vehicle software and sustainable transport. The event anticipates welcoming upwards of 10,000 professional visitors, while the conference will feature a distinguished line-up of speakers, including global leaders and experts in EVs, advanced technologies, and smart mobility.
The initiative aligns with the RTA’s vision of becoming “The World Leader in Seamless and Sustainable Mobility” and reflects its commitment to fostering an integrated, safe, and technologically advanced transport system. The exhibition will also highlight innovations and services designed to enhance customer experience, in line with international best practices.
