Mitsubishi’s newest three-row SUV enters the UAE market with a clear brief: deliver space, usability and climate comfort at a price that undercuts larger full-size SUVs. In a region where seven-seat practicality matters more than badge prestige, the Mitsubishi Destinator positions itself as a sensible, value-driven alternative.
So does it deliver where it counts?
The 2026 Haval H9 arrives in the UAE as a completely fresh proposition, with a bold, boxy aesthetic that feels tailor-made for the region’s love of rugged SUVs. With no predecessor sold officially in the local market, this all-new model lands with a clean slate, aiming to disrupt the dominance of established Japanese family haulers by offering serious off-road hardware and a premium cabin at a price point that makes you look twice.
If the Tank 300 is the fun-loving rebel and the Tank 500 is the sensible family hauler, the 2026 GWM Tank 700 is the villain’s lair on wheels. It is Great Wall Motor’s most ambitious, most expensive creation to date. While the Chinese giant has been chipping away at the establishment with value-for-money offerings, the Tank 700 kicks the door down, demanding to be seated at the same table as other premium established brands in the market.
Chery Group recently launched its dedicated electric-led sub-brand, iCaur, with the flagship of this new lineup, the 2026 iCaur V27, making its global debut here in the UAE. It is a mid-size SUV that combines the boxy aesthetic everyone currently wants with a Range-Extended Electric Vehicle (REEV) powertrain that promises to kill range anxiety dead.
The 2025 Audi SQ5 marks a compelling evolution for Audi’s performance-oriented mid-size SUV. It takes the Q5 underpinnings and infuses them with greater athleticism, stronger engine performance, and a markedly more expressive presence on the road.
The 2025 Tesla Model Y Long Range Dual Motor AWD continues to prove why Tesla remains at the forefront of the electric revolution. It’s not just an SUV—it’s a smart, fast, and remarkably refined electric machine built around some of the best software and safety engineering in the industry.
The all-new Škoda Superb has officially made its Middle East debut, marking the flagship of the Czech automaker’s renewed push into the region. To experience the new model firsthand, we travelled to Prague, the heart of Škoda’s operations, to test drive both the Superb sedan and the Superb Combi, the elegant station wagon variant that remains incredibly popular across Europe.
The Porsche Cayenne Coupe Turbo GT sits at the sharp end of the performance SUV spectrum, and in many ways, it is the most extreme SUV Porsche has ever built. While the standard Cayenne remains a benchmark luxury SUV, the Turbo GT is an unapologetic exercise in engineering excess, designed to out-accelerate supercars while still carrying the family in relative comfort.
The Voyah Free is one of the latest entrants into the UAE’s growing premium electric SUV segment, bringing with it a mix of Chinese engineering, European design influences, and advanced tech features aimed at standing toe-to-toe with established luxury brands.
The Hummer nameplate is back, but not as you remember it. Gone is the gas-guzzling brute of the early 2000s. The 2025 GMC Hummer EV SUV is a bold, electric reimagining that blends military-inspired design with supertruck tech. Now available in the UAE in limited numbers, it’s marketed as the go-anywhere, do-anything EV for those who want to stand out—on-road and off.
