Gargash Motors has entered into a strategic partnership with Ilyas & Mustafa Galadari Group – Metro Taxi, marking a major step forward in the UAE’s sustainable transportation landscape. As part of this collaboration, Gargash Motors will supply a fleet of GAC Motor EMKOO Hybrid vehicles to Metro Taxi, underscoring a shared commitment to eco-friendly innovation and sustainability in the UAE.
This landmark partnership makes GAC Motor one of the first Chinese automotive brands to provide such a large fleet to a local taxi company in the UAE. With this initiative, GAC Motor strengthens its position in the region, demonstrating the growing confidence in the brand’s commitment to quality, innovation, and sustainability. The introduction of the GAC Motor EMKOO Hybrid into Metro Taxi’s operations highlights both the operational efficiency and environmental consciousness that are central to Dubai’s Clean Energy Strategy.
The EMKOO Hybrid’s remarkable fuel efficiency is a standout feature, offering an impressive range of up to 1,000 kilometers on a single tank. This is particularly valuable for Metro Taxi’s high-demand service, enabling enhanced operational performance while contributing to reduced carbon emissions. This move also aligns with Dubai’s Clean Energy Strategy, which aims to reduce the emirate’s environmental impact and promote greener solutions for public transport.
Mr. Shehab Gargash, Managing Director and Group CEO of Gargash Group, expressed his pride in the partnership:
“This partnership is a testament to Gargash Motors’ commitment to driving sustainable innovation in the automotive sector. By introducing the GAC Motor EMKOO Hybrid to the Metro Taxi fleet, we are proud to support Dubai’s clean energy goals while providing a practical, eco-friendly solution for public transportation.

As part of this agreement, Metro Taxi will continue its commitment to operational excellence and eco-conscious practices, offering passengers a comfortable and efficient travel experience. The fleet of GAC Motor EMKOO Hybrids further solidifies Gargash Motors’ role in expanding sustainable automotive options in both the UAE and the broader GCC region.
