Al-Futtaim Electric Mobility Co. And e& To Deploy 100 EVs

Two brands, e& and Al-Futtaim Electric Mobility Company, part of the Al-Futtaim Group, have partnered to boost UAE’s aim for net-zero emissions by 2050. The agreement is to deploy a fleet of 100 BYD Atto 3 vehicles in the country. Those will help reduce net carbon emissions by replacing the company’s fleet of light vehicles. The Atto 3, with multiple electric motors, boasts a WLTP-certified range of 420km on a single charge. That means it has enough juice to serve the operational needs of e&.

This partnership with e& will also propel Al-Futtaim Group towards its ‘Green’ targets. It has pledged that by the end of the decade (2030), at least 50 per cent of its total vehicle sales in the UAE will come from new energy vehicles. That comprises hybrid and pure electric models. Also, the Group is en route to installing 10 per cent of the UAE’s electric vehicle charging stations within the same timeline.
