7 tips when buying a new car in UAE
Before you rush out there, we’ve got a few tips for you to bear in mind.
✅ What stands out (Strengths / Key Highlights)
• Plug-in hybrid + full-size SUV versatility
The Leopard Titanium 7 uses a 1.5-litre turbo petrol engine + dual electric motors (front + rear) — a PHEV/plug-in hybrid + AWD (4WD) setup.
Battery: uses a lithium iron phosphate (LFP, “Blade-type”) pack — considered more stable and thermally safe (important for hot climates like UAE).
Electric-only (CLTC) range is claimed around 190 km — good for daily city commuting or short trips without using fuel.
Combined with its hybrid generator + fuel tank, total driving range becomes very large — useful for long drives or desert trips.
• Strong performance for a hybrid SUV
The 4WD “Ultra” version reportedly does 0–100 km/h in about 4.5 seconds (in top spec), which is impressive for a 5-seat SUV — quite sport-SUV-like performance.
Top speed is around 190 km/h.
• Spacious, premium and well-equipped for comfort / luxury / practicality
Size: approx. 4,999 mm (L) × 1,995 mm (W) × 1,865 mm (H), with a 2,920 mm wheelbase. Good size for a full-size SUV.
Seating: 5-door, 5-seat SUV — enough for typical family or group use.
Interior: Ultra trim offers premium cabin — leather/Nappa-type seating, likely ventilated/heated seats, multi-screen digital cockpit, panoramic sunroof/glass roof, modern infotainment and smart connectivity, and comfort-oriented features.
Additional tech: suite of driver-assist systems and smart driving aids (from braking/traction control, 4WD/terrain modes, to ADAS/LiDAR-based assist depending on spec), 360° camera — useful for city driving and UAE road/terrain conditions.
• Balanced for UAE lifestyle: city, desert, long trips
Because of hybrid + AWD + SUV size + comfort/tech — the car seems tailored for a mix of city commuting, weekend desert/off-road / dune or mountain trips, and longer road trips. Good for people who want SUV footprint without purely diesel/petrol drawbacks.
