Abu Dhabi Adds Tesla To Its Taxi Fleet To Achieve Sustainable Transport Environment

UAE is the land of tech and innovation. And while the country wants to be number one in technology and innovation, it also aims to be number one in achieving its sustainable development goals. From banning single plastic bags to designing Expo City 2020 residential areas based on sustainable goals, there’s a lot that the world needs to learn from the UAE. And now, to add more to its glory, UAE’s capital, Abu Dhabi, has announced Tesla Taxis as a part of its taxi fleet.
