Omega Seiki Mobility Opens First Overseas EV Plant in Dubai
Omega Seiki Mobility (OSM), an Indian electric vehicle manufacturer, has opened its first overseas assembly plant in Dubai, Jebel Ali Free Zone Access (Jafza). The plant, set to be operational by the end of 2025, will span over 42,000 sq ft and serve as a hub for the company's expansion into the Middle East and Africa.
OSM's Dubai plant will assemble its electric two- and three-wheelers, with a portfolio including 11 three-wheelers, two two-wheelers, and two commercial trucks. The facility will also function as a storage and distribution centre for components and spare parts. The company has earmarked an investment of $25 million (roughly ₹218 crore) in the Dubai plant over the next five years.
OSM plans to introduce Compressed Natural Gas (CNG)-powered commercial vehicles in select African markets as a temporary measure until Electric Vehicle (EV) infrastructure matures. The company has identified key markets in the Middle East and Africa, including the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, and various African nations, for its export strategy. Dubai's strategic location will facilitate logistical support for these markets via sea, air, and land routes.
The Dubai plant's opening marks a significant step in OSM's international expansion. By utilising Dubai as a strategic hub, OSM aims to serve its export markets across the Middle East and Africa, with a focus on countries showing strong potential for electric mobility adoption. The company's long-term vision aligns with regional political initiatives promoting sustainable development and reducing air pollution.
