EVs in UAE: Cut Fuel Costs to AED 45 per 1,000 km

Petrol Savings of up to 84%: NIO’s Analysis Shows EVs Cost Just AED 45 over 1,000 km vs AED 280 for Petrol

Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, April 2026: With Super 98 petrol now at AED 3.39 per litre and Special 95 at AED 3.28, in the UAE, the cost gap between conventional and electric vehicles in the UAE has widened to levels that are forcing a rethink across corporate fleets and private ownership alike. An analysis by NIO MENA reveals just how significant the gap has become.

At current pump prices, a standard petrol vehicle averaging 12 km/litre costs approximately AED 275 to AED 280 to cover 1,000 km. An electric vehicle running on home charging covers the same distance for just AED 45, a saving of more than AED 230 per 1,000 km.

Even using rapidly growing public infrastructure, the economics favour EVs. Public AC charging brings the cost to around AED 120 per 1,000 km, while DC fast charging, the most expensive option, still delivers savings of roughly AED 90 per 1,000 km.
