Dubai-based mobility innovator Autostrad has emerged as a dominant force in the United Arab Emirates’ transportation sector, achieving remarkable expansion with its fleet surpassing 6,000 vehicles while maintaining an extraordinary 50% year-on-year growth trajectory over the past two years. The company’s strategic positioning within the rapidly evolving UAE mobility market demonstrates how specialized, sector-specific solutions are reshaping corporate transportation.
Autostrad has pioneered a unique operational model that delivers tailored mobility services across diverse industry verticals including oil and gas, aviation, port operations, educational institutions, and government fleets. This sector-focused methodology ensures each vehicle is purpose-engineered with advanced safety systems, regulatory compliance technologies, and data-driven management platforms. The company’s substantial footprint includes over 500 dedicated vehicles serving long-term contracts in the oil and gas sector alone, while its educational transportation division now safely transports more than 14,000 students daily—a significant increase from 9,000 the previous year.
Technological integration forms the cornerstone of Autostrad’s operational excellence. The company has deployed sophisticated telematics and fleet management systems that enable real-time vehicle monitoring, predictive maintenance algorithms, and operational optimization. Their digital ecosystem features integrated booking platforms, customer relationship management systems, and a proprietary mobile application that has exceeded 2,000 downloads, creating seamless customer experiences across all touchpoints.
The UAE’s mobility sector continues to demonstrate robust growth, with market research projecting the car rental and leasing market to reach AED 14.3 billion by 2027, representing a compound annual growth rate of 6.4%. This expansion is primarily driven by increasing demand for digital fleet optimization solutions and connected mobility services across corporate and institutional sectors.
Karunesh Arya, General Manager of Autostrad, emphasized the company’s vision: ‘We are delivering comprehensive mobility ecosystems rather than merely providing vehicles. Our solutions combine technological sophistication, operational reliability, and sector-specific customization that addresses the unique transportation challenges faced by different industries. Our sustained growth reflects both market confidence in our approach and our unwavering commitment to innovation, safety, and service excellence across the UAE.’
