UAE News - October 2021
“Shifting
preference of consumers from availing public transportation to private vehicles
fueled by the impact of COVID-19 has driven the growth of Used Car Market in
UAE.”
Increased
Awareness on Health and Hygiene: With the
advent of COVID-19, consumers were witnessed to be more concerned on
maintaining personal health and hygiene. Therefore they are preferring the
option of private transportation rather than availing public transport system.
The change in consumer’s behavior and preference is expected to act as an
opportunity for the used car market in UAE. Due to weaker economic sentiment
and financial constraint followed by the aftermath of COVID-19, consumers are
not willing to spend a huge amount in buying new cars rather they are
preferring to buy affordable used cars which helps them in maintaining their
health by spending less. Therefore the future prospect of the industry looks
strong wherein used cars players in the market could utilize this opportunity
to integrate the market.
Technological
Impact and Omni Channel Strategy: Technology
has deeply impacted the used car market as it has altered the buying behavior
of the customers. Most of the customer journey today begins with online search;
hence it gives the retailers to mark their presence at the start of the
customer journey. Currently many companies are using Omni channel strategy to
reach out to the customer. The players in the market have realized the
importance of a multichannel approach to sales wherein they provide seamless
customer experience combining the use of digital as well physical platforms
such as communication through mobile and laptop devices or brick and mortar
space therefore formulating Omni channel strategies to reach out to customers.
This type of channel is useful as the digital presence is an important
parameter to improve the customer penetration while the physical presence helps
in building of trust of the customers. The need of such Omni channel strategy
would help the players in increasing their visibility in coming years as more
and more customers adapt to the digital medium of buying and selling followed
by the aftermath of COVID-19. The advent of digital technology has given
varied domains to the customers which they can explore to find the most
suitable way to buy a car. In general, the customer uses both the digital and
the physical channel simultaneously in order to find the best product according
to their needs.
Large Number
of Expatriate Population: As of July
2021 it is estimated that expat population in UAE constitutes 88.6% of the
overall population. Mostly expats in UAE are living for a specific duration of
time till their employment contract expires. Due to this nature, these expats
prefer buying a pre-owned vehicles rather than spending huge sum of money in buying
a brand new car which has resulted in increased demand of used cars over the
years. Affordability plays a deterministic role in choosing a used car over a
new car. In coming years, the expat population in UAE is estimated to
constitute 90% of the overall population which will keep the demand prospect of
used cars at an all-time high.

Value Added
Services: Used car market players in UAE,
in an effort to differentiate its offerings are providing a number of
value-added services along with the used cars which serve as one of the major
competition parameter in UAE. These value-added services include warranty,
financing options, accessories and others. Many dealerships have tie ups with
loan providing financing companies. These value-added services have a placebo
effect on the assuring quality of the car in the mind of customers. Thus, help
in creating a positive brand perception in front of the customers. These
value-added services also prompt the customers to pay a marginally more while
buying through a dealership. This trend will help in consolidating the market
share of players selling via B2B/B2C channel in the market as players selling
via C2C sales channel does not offer a wide range of necessary value-added
services such as transfer of ownership, tax registration and payment, quality
check and assurance and others. Thus, in the future value added service
offerings would play a pivotal role in developing the demand ecosystem of used
car market.
Expo 2020: In recent years, UAE has been initializing the process
of shifting away from oil dependence and enhancing its economic capability to
develop others sectors, such as tourism, IT, pharmaceuticals, automotive, real
estate etc. Therefore Expo 2020 is seen as a platform which will contribute to
major investment opportunities in diversified sector of UAE especially Dubai.

imported from Japan, Germany, America, and South Korea among others. Therefore,
expo 2020 will act as a platform to develop and attract investment in the
automotive sectors coupled with efficient technological solution, which will
change the ecosystem of the industry. With the structural change in automotive
sector, there is a greater possibility to enhance the capability of used car
market in Dubai wherein players in coming years would look forward to adapt to
effective digital solutions to attract consumers and participate in growing the
used car market in UAE.
