How the score works (published formula)
A weighted average of four pillars from catalogue data only: Heat range 35% (from the Real-Range Index), Charging 25% (power + 10–80% time), Value 20% (price vs its body-class median), Dealer support 20% (Gulf markets with an official dealer). A pillar with no data is dropped and weights renormalise — no number is invented. Pure EVs only.

Seen in these markets through a dealer or independent channel. Verify the warranty provider before paying.
Independent importer
1 market signal(s)
It may be in stock or inbound at an independent showroom without an official dealer. Warranty there comes from the seller, not guaranteed — exactly what our managed EV Gulf route replaces.
Import via EV Gulf
Inspection + freight + registration
We source it for you through our network of contracted partners: VIN, battery and software checked before shipping, then local registration — one contract, one invoice, instead of coordinating separate parties yourself.
Where have we observed an access route?
UAE
Independent-market activity we've verified in these markets — an internal signal, not a referral to an outside seller.
If you buy elsewhere: Request a live video of voice languages, software version, charging port, phone-app activation and OTA, plus a written warranty naming who pays for battery, parts and labour.
