DONGFENG 007 is transforming the EV landscape in the UAE

The UAE’s electric vehicle revolution is accelerating, and at the heart of it stands the DONGFENG 007 — a striking new model redefining what it means to drive electric. Brought to the region by Mahy Khoory Automotive, this cutting-edge EV blends futuristic styling, advanced engineering, and remarkable efficiency, ushering in a new era of sustainable mobility for drivers across the Emirates.

Unveiled at EVIS Abu Dhabi 2026, the Middle East’s leading summit for electric vehicle innovation, the DONGFENG 007 showcases the next level of intelligent design and performance. Its sleek contours and aerodynamic build are matched by powerful hybrid technology that integrates an advanced electric motor with a 1.5-litre gasoline-assisted engine. The result? A smooth, responsive driving experience that delivers both power and endurance in equal measure.

Behind the wheel, drivers can expect a seamless balance of innovation and practicality. The DONGFENG 007 produces 218 horsepower and 310 Nm of torque, accelerating from 0 to 100km/h in just 7.2 seconds—impressive for an electric crossover designed with comfort and efficiency in mind. Yet the true standout feature is its extraordinary range of up to 1,200km on a single charge, redefining long-distance electric travel in the UAE and beyond.

According to Saj Jabbar, General Manager of Mahy Khoory Automotive, the exclusive distributor of Dongfeng Motor Corporation in the UAE, “The DONGFENG 007 represents a perfect fusion of innovation, performance, and environmental responsibility. It’s designed for forward-thinking individuals who want to embrace the future of driving.”

In celebration of the launch, Mahy Khoory Automotive is offering customers a limited-time special package that makes owning the DONGFENG 007 even more appealing. The offer includes 0% interest, free insurance, three years or 60,000km of complimentary servicing, and six years of roadside assistance, with payment plans starting in 2026—an unprecedented deal for the UAE’s fast-growing EV market.

More than just a vehicle launch, this moment signals a significant step in supporting the UAE’s clean energy and sustainability goals. Mahy Khoory Automotive, part of the wider Mahy Khoory Group—an organisation with nearly a century of excellence across industries such as green energy, recycling, and manufacturing—continues to drive the nation’s shift toward eco-conscious transportation solutions.

With the arrival of the DONGFENG 007, the message is clear: the future of driving in the UAE is smart, sustainable, and powered by innovation.

よかれと思ってやっているのに逆効果!? 愛車の寿命を縮めるNGカーケア5選
よかれと思ってやっているのに逆効果!? 愛車の寿命を縮めるNGカーケア5選
愛車を大切に扱っているつもりが、実は知らず知らずのうちに車の寿命を縮めてしまっていることがあります。日常的に何気なく行っているケアでも、間違った方法はトラブルの元に。今回は、意外と多い「やりがちなNG行動」を5つピックアップし、その理由と正しい対処法を詳しく解説します。NG行為1:下り坂でNレンジに入れて燃費を節約しようとする下り坂でAT車のシフトをNレンジにするのは、一見燃費が良くなりそうですが、実は逆効果。現代のAT車はDレンジのままアクセルを戻せば、エンジンが燃料噴射を抑えて効率的に走行してくれます。Nレンジにするとエンジンからの駆動力が断たれ、AT内部の潤滑オイルを送るポンプが停止し、内部の損傷リスクが高まるため非常に危険です。たとえ誤操作しても安全機能で保護されていますが、基本的には絶対に避けましょう。NG行為2:タイヤの空気圧を必要以上に高く設定する空気圧は車ごとに適正値が決まっており、燃費や走行性能を保つためにも守るべきポイントです。高めに設定すれば燃費がよくなると思われがちですが、過剰に高くするとタイヤの衝撃吸収力が低下し、足回りの部品にダメージを与えたり、偏摩耗や雨天
