For the first time, cars were delivered to the UAE by rail — this was a new stage in the development of the country's transport and logistics system.

What happened

• Nissan cars were delivered from Fujairah to Abu Dhabi
• the route ran from the seaport to the ICAD dry port
• for the first time, the railway was used for ready-made cars

Why this is important

Previously, the UAE railway was used primarily for:

• raw materials
• industrial cargoes

Now it is also starting to work with more complex categories — finished products.

What are the advantages of the railway

• more stable delivery times
• less dependence on road traffic
• the ability to scale up traffic

Ecology and sustainability

Rail transportation:

• reduce CO₂ emissions
• reduce the load on roads
• support the country's environmental goals

General trend

Logistics in the UAE is gradually becoming more:

• technologically advanced
• sustainable
• integrated

The result

The first transportation of cars by rail is not a one-time project, but a signal that the country's transport system is starting to work in a new way, combining seaports, railways and domestic logistics centers into a single network.
