UAE car news websites

Erstwhile, it was an ordeal for consumers and automotive fanatics to not just obtain valuable intel about the vehicle they hanker or have gaped at on the tarmac, but even while striking a deal with an automotive distributor. They often felt vulnerable being at the mercy of some nasty sales executives who would commit follies by blithering incorrect information and manipulate one’s decision causing agony to the consumers. 

Out went those times and in came a new forum or platform as a merit of the wake of computers and digitisation era in the form of car news websites. Similar to the regular news websites divulging information on realms such as Current Affairs, Sports, Biz, Health and Wellness, Fashion, etc, these platforms had content and templates curated for not just those infested in the field with plenary interest, but even those folks who are remotely enthused wanting just a regular dose of information on cars, prices, expert reviews, consumer feedbacks, automobiles with great calibre and even those which are a cachet of stodgy construction and consider their habitat as repair garage rather than the asphalt. 

Since the Early 2000s, there has been a great influx of car news websites in Dubai. This ensued an increasing number of brands incepting in the region, each with their own set of model and variant idiosyncrasies making it uncanny for the masses to narrow down on a car. These car news websites offer reviews on new automobiles, new and used car buying guide, service costs of cars belonging to discrete segments, variant-wise information on cars’ prices, features and specifications and some even allow one to list an advertisement to sell their car and disperse their opinion or experience of a model making it elliptical for potential buyers to take into account what matters most to them while considering a slew of cars. 

To quote a paradigm example of Dubai car news and such identical information about the automotive industry in other GCC regions, YallaMotor.com provides a regular dose of such knowledge in a swift and user-friendly demeanour. It is the leading automotive portal in the UAE and GCC, founded in 2012. It provides all the functions mentioned atop and even links to the YallaMotor YouTube reviews where the car can be seen in action and through POV videos, sounds of some cars in motion can also be heard giving a real-life perspective of the vehicle along with its unique features and quirks. The website has an edge over other forums as the videos can be found in English and Arabic.   

Nowadays, it is not an uncommon trend of automobile manufacturers sponsoring their advertisements and television commercials on such news websites with the aim of reaching a larger audience and creating a favourable impression in the viewer’s mind for their offering which might lead to sale of their products against the contention. 

Several pre-owned and certified pre-owned dealerships also get bestowed with an opportunity to showcase their inventory on such websites whereby, enquiry and sale can be generated. Finally, cars can also be compared against each other to make an accurate decision or have know-how about the nuances of cars and which one suits the purchaser’s requirements better. 

It’s heartening to see how far such car news websites have come from being crude forums having simple, obnoxious templates and articles flanking just news to those which provide almost everything one could rummage for and more in a flamboyant panache that one would endear for long. Dubai has for long, been the centre of attraction for cars and it isn’t without reason, why such car news websites have exceled in the region and have burgeoned with continued alacrity to multiply in number.
