UAE used car market is expected to magnify at an exponential rate in the forecast period owing to the adoption of online platforms and growing investments by the market players to stay ahead in the market. The average time of keeping the vehicle by consumers is decreasing at a rapid rate. Buying used cars gives the driver feasibility to change the vehicles as used cars at lower rates than purchasing new vehicles. The introduction of used electric cars owing to growing environmental concerns and favorable government policies providing incentives and income tax rebates on purchase and manufacturing of electric vehicles is expected to create lucrative opportunities for market growth.
