TAM-Europe says its partnership with Al Ghurair allows it to contribute directly to the UAE’s ambitious sustainability goals.
The commercial vehicle manufacturer is based in Maribor, Slovenia, and under the terms of a recently signed agreement Al Ghurair Motors is now serving as the exclusive dealer for TAM-Europe all electric vehicles across the UAE.
The announcement was made at the Electric Vehicle Innovation Summit in Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre (ADNEC), a platform showcasing cutting-edge electric vehicle technologies from around the world.
A highlight of the event was the electric delivery van Model T600 displayed at the booth, which drew high interest from various leading logistics companies from around the world.
The integration of electric vehicles in urban mobility systems plays an important role in achieving the UAE’s net zero goal by 20501 . A significant contributor to global greenhouse gas emissions, the electrification of the transport sector is critical to reducing overall carbon intensity, said the new partners.
“At Al Ghurair we take pride in contributing to cities of the future across the industries we operate in. In the automotive sector, we actively seek innovative solutions and technologies that disrupt the status quo and create lasting value for our customers,” said John Iossifidis, GCEO, Al Ghurair.
“This partnership exemplifies our commitment to supporting the UAE’s long-term vision for safe, smart, and sustainable urban mobility solutions. We look forward to collaborating closely with TAM-Europe to turn this vision into reality.”
As a leading manufacturer of high-quality buses and coaches, TAM-Europe serves three key market segments including airport buses, public transport, Light Commercial Vehicles (LCVs) and Heavy Commercial Vehicles (HCVs). The company’s VivAir airport buses segment boasts of a 40% market share globally, excluding China.
Yusef Ma, CEO, TAM-Europe, described TAM-Europe as a leader in sustainable transportation solutions with its eco-friendly vehicles specifically designed to endure the UAE’s demanding climate, ensuring optimal performance without compromise.
“This partnership allows us to contribute directly to the UAE’s ambitious sustainability goals. We’re excited to join forces with Al Ghurair Motors and be a part of the nation’s journey towards a cleaner, greener future,” added Ma.
