Dubai's automotive market is shifting gears. With some of the world’s highest car ownership rates and a consumer base that expects luxury and innovation, traditional showroom visits and newspaper ads are no longer enough.
Today’s car buyers in Dubai begin their journey online, and their expectations for a seamless, high-tech experience have never been higher. From the initial spark of desire to the final signature and beyond, the entire customer journey is being reimagined.
At ULEGENDARY Digital, we help automotive brands—from luxury dealerships to pre-owned specialists—navigate this new landscape with cutting-edge digital strategies that drive discovery, conversion, and lifelong loyalty.
The New Customer Journey: It Starts Online
The days of spending weekends hopping from one dealership to another are fading. Over 95% of car buyers in the UAE now use digital channels to research their purchase.
Their journey is a digital-first experience:
- Inspiration: Browsing social media (Instagram Reels of luxury car reviews, TikTok tours).
- Research: Comparing models, features, and prices on Google and specialist sites.
- Virtual Experience: Exploring vehicles through immersive tools.
- Decision: Booking a test drive or initiating a purchase online.
“In Dubai, the test drive starts with a scroll. Your digital presence is your new showroom floor.”

1. Immersive Virtual Showrooms & Augmented Reality
Bring the dealership to your customer, wherever they are.
