JAKARTA - Sharjah Taxi has started testing the Chinese-made Skywell electric vehicle for its limousine service.

The test, which began in early June at Sharjah International Airport, United Arab Emirates, will evaluate Skywell's advantages and suitability for its luxury fleet, based on standards of comfort, safety and security.

Sharjah Taxi, part of Osool Transport Solutions, said it was expanding the number of electric charging stations across all emirates to serve various electric vehicles. The company also plans to explore other electric vehicle models.

"This vehicle is in line with our commitment to providing environmentally friendly transportation, reflecting our dedication to the sustainability and preservation of the environment," Khaled Al Kindi, acting general manager Osol Transport Solutions, who is a subsidiary of Sharjah Asset Management, told The National News July 20.

Previously, Sharjah Taxi announced in October plans to turn 60 percent of its fleet into hybrid vehicles by the end of 2022, as part of a broader plan to turn all cars into environmentally friendly.

Furthermore, this test is part of Sharjah's goal of achieving carbon-free public transportation by 2050.

In March, Sharjah's Roads and Transport Authority added 10 Tesla Model 3 cars to its fleet.

Separately, Minister of Energy and Infrastructure Suhail Al Mazrouei last week said the UAE plans to own fifty percent of electric vehicles on the streets by 2050. He also announced plans to develop a new network of electric vehicle charging stations across the country.

It is known that the Skywell ET5 SUV has a distance of 520 km and can charge from 20 percent to 80 percent within 40 minutes.

Meanwhile, China's car popularity in the UAE has increased sharply in recent months, with one manufacturer, MG, revealed by Yallamotors as the fourth best-selling brand in the Emirate from January to March.
