Buying the Suzuki Motor Corporation e Vitara (global) in United Arab Emirates
- 1Range: the 500 km figure quoted in United Arab Emirates is on the WLTP test cycle. In 45°C summer heat with the AC working hard, expect 15–25% less than the WLTP figure.
- 2Charging: a 61 kWh pack refills overnight on a 7 kW home wallbox; on the road you'll use CCS2 (DC fast) and Type 2 (AC); DEWA EV Green Charger network in Dubai, ADDC in Abu Dhabi — this model does 10-80% in 45 min (70kW DC).
- 3Incentives: No federal purchase subsidy. Public charging is now paid (DEWA ~AED 0.70/kWh AC, ~AED 1.20/kWh DC, plus VAT, since late 2024). Dubai EVs get a free Salik tag but pay normal tolls. Perks like free public parking vary by emirate — confirm locally.
- 4Climate: Heat is the main range factor here — covered/shaded parking and overnight charging help battery longevity in the Gulf climate.
- 5Fit: enough range for daily Dubai/Abu Dhabi driving plus inter-emirate trips, even with summer-heat derating.
