Dubai's US$10bln infrastructure spending key to the growth of the commercial vehicle market
The latest automotive advancements and regional industry updates will be showcased at Automechanika Dubai from 9 to 11 December Dubai, UAE: Automechanika Dubai returns from 9 to 11 December at the Dubai World Trade Centre and in the lead up to the event, industry experts have emphasised that significant investments in large-scale construction and infrastructure projects are key to ensuring the growth of the GCC commercial vehicle market. In 2024, the global commercial vehicle market experienced a downturn, with the medium and heavy-duty truck segment particularly impacted. Light commercial vehicle volumes also declined in Asian markets such as China, India, and the ASEAN countries despite strong growth in recent years. Amid these shifts, China's electric truck segment emerged as a standout, more than doubling sales from the previous year due to strong government support and a growing focus on sustainability. However, according to industry experts, the GCC's commercial vehicle market is poised for growth, driven by substantial infrastructure investments and strategic economic initiatives in key member states. Sunny Manjani, Mobility Consultant at Frost & Sullivan, said: 'Dubai has earmarked US$10 billion for infrastructure spending, focusing on scaling the Emirate's tourism economy. Meanwhile, Saudi Arabia has announced investments worth US$267 billion, and Qatar is focusing on tourism and hospitality under its Third National Development Strategy 2024-2030.' According to Frost & Sullivan's research, Saudi Arabia is leading the commercial vehicles industry in the Middle East, leveraging its strategic location and substantial infrastructure investments. Manjani continued: 'Current supply chain disruptions in maritime routes are creating short-term opportunities for road transportation in the region. For example, goods from Europe are currently being transported from Saudi Arabia, through the UAE, and then to Asia.' He further noted that the Middle East is emerging as a prime destination for investment and emphasised that supportive policies and increasing trade ties with Asian partners are catalysing multisector growth across the region. Looking at the year ahead, Frost & Sullivan's research predicts that the non-oil economy in the Middle East will remain a key driver of economic growth, with key industries identified as manufacturing (including automotive), renewables, infrastructure, construction, tourism, artificial intelligence, and fintech. In the UAE, a resilient non-oil economy performance will push GDP growth to 5.8% in 2025, up from 4% in 2024, while investments in Saudi's non-oil segments including, tourism, technology, infrastructure, and renewables, will see real GDP growth reach 4.8% in 2025. Both scenarios have the potential to positively impact the commercial vehicle market due to increased demand. Commenting on the upcoming edition of Automechanika Dubai, Tommy Le, Show Manager for Automechanika Dubai, said: 'Automechanika Dubai is the largest international trade show for the automotive aftermarket industry in the MEA region. The 22nd edition will span 20 halls at the Dubai World Trade Centre, featuring over 20 Pavilions and a host of new features. 'This year, we are excited to introduce a brand-new Commercial Vehicles vertical dedicated to the mining, construction and agricultural industries. Other new features include a Road Safety Day and a regional focus on the GCC, which spotlights manufacturing. We look forward to welcoming the industry back to Automechanika Dubai as we drive business growth in the automotive aftermarket.'

Commercial vehicle experts convene at Automechanika Dubai Network event ahead of Automechanika Dubai 2025
The commercial vehicle sector in the GCC is projected to grow at a CAGR of 6.6% until 2028 Electrification, green mobility and digitalisation are key topics on the agenda as the sector prepares for its next phase of growth Dubai, UAE: Messe Frankfurt Middle East, the organiser of Automechanika Dubai, has officially launched the first Automechanika Dubai Network event for 2025. This bi-annual focused industry forum is designed to promote insight, collaboration, and transformation within the region's automotive aftermarket. The first edition for 2025, powered by Bridgestone, took place at the Hyatt Regency Dubai Creek Heights, with the theme ' Commercial Vehicles—Trends & Transformation". Automechanika Dubai, the largest international automotive aftermarket trade show in the Middle East and Africa (MEA) region, continues to develop as a year-round platform focused on fostering strategic discussions within the sector. The annual Automechanika Dubai Network event gathered thought leaders and industry stakeholders to explore the latest innovations in fleet management, sustainability, and vehicle electrification. Sunny Manjani, Principal Consultant for Growth Advisory at Frost & Sullivan, was the first speaker to address the audience. He presented a market outlook for commercial vehicles, highlighting opportunities in emerging markets such as India, ASEAN, and Latin America. Additionally, he discussed regional trends in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), including the effects of declining oil prices, innovative strategies implemented by the Public Investment Fund (PIF), and tourism growth in Saudi Arabia. 'According to Frost & Sullivan's Top 5 Predictions for 2025, counter tariffs from various countries have made global trade and logistics unpredictable, impacting freight movement and vehicle demand. Meanwhile, growth in commercial vehicles is expected in India, ASEAN, and Latin America, while EV targets face setbacks in North America and Europe. Under current conditions, internal combustion engines are evolving into cleaner, fuel-agnostic solutions, and OEMs are exploring M&A opportunities to integrate advanced software and AI," Manjani said. In a keynote on smart trucking, Wahaj Malik, Vehicle Sales Director, UD Trucks Middle East, discussed how digitalisation and telematics are revolutionising fleet operations. He highlighted the importance of data-driven decision-making, real-time vehicle monitoring, and predictive maintenance strategies that improve operational efficiency and reduce downtime. 'Logistics is the lifeblood of society. We believe that people depend on logistics, and logistics depend on people,' Malik said. 'The inefficiency is the biggest challenge of our sector — the safety aspect for road users, the public, congestion, and the environmental issues it brings. However, it is moving towards digitalisation and becoming smarter.' Hans Wising, Sales Director at Scania Middle East, addressed the topic of green mobility, sharing insights on the decarbonisation of transport. Additionally, Berk Berksoy, Fleet Solutions, OE & Retread Manager at Bridgestone Middle East Africa, presented the company's Fleet Care programme.
