Dubai Media Office

Dubai Taxi Company PJSC (DTC) has added 600 new cars to its fleet following the latest auction by the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) to meet the growing demand for public transport services.

The new taxis will be introduced through a phased plan from July.  

With this addition, DTC’s taxi fleet will grow from 6,217 to 6,817 vehicles and increases its market share to 47 per cent.

"The acquisition of 600 new taxi plates is a meaningful step forward for Dubai Taxi Company and reflects our confidence in the continued growth of Dubai’s mobility sector,” said Mansoor Rahma Alfalasi, Group CEO of Dubai Taxi Company.

"As demand for transport services rises alongside the emirate’s urban development, we remain focused on scaling our operations to address our customers’ demand."

This supports the Dubai Economic Agenda (D33), by reinforcing the Emirate's position as a global leadership in urban services.
