AliExpress Launches EV Sales in the UAE
AliExpress has introduced online EV sales in the UAE, offering customers access to electric vehicles from brands like BYD, Geely, and Jetour as part of its Summer Sale campaign.
AliExpress has officially launched its first electric vehicle (EV) sales channel in the UAE, allowing customers to purchase EVs entirely online. The launch is part of the platform’s Summer Sale campaign and marks a regional first for e-commerce-based automotive retail.
Vehicles are available through the site’s “Big Save Channel”, with brands including BYD, Geely, Jetour, and Toyota. Once purchased, the EVs are delivered via sea freight directly from China, with all logistics and shipping handled through AliExpress’s integrated platform.
The initiative supports the UAE’s broader environmental and economic goals under Vision 2031, particularly as the country ramps up infrastructure and incentives to support low-emission transport. As of 2024, the UAE has had more than 147,000 electric and hybrid vehicles on its roads, as well as a 25% year-on-year rise in EV registrations.
According to AliExpress, the new service aims to streamline access to EVs across income levels, combining convenience with the growing demand for sustainable mobility options.
AliExpress plans to expand EV sales to other GCC countries in the coming months.
