1 million Motorist Guidebooks distributed throughout UAE to support move to unleaded

The Motorist Guidebook and pamphlet are part of the comprehensive public awareness campaign, entitled UAE Goes Green, which started earlier this week. Available from every UAE service station, this booklet gives general guidelines to assist motorists with the changeover.

With input from all UAE authorised car dealers and oil companies, the booklet covers a range of topics, including the benefits of unleaded gasoline, a detailed motor listing and general guidelines on how to make the switch to unleaded from leaded gasoline. The motor listing, provided by the UAE authorised dealers on behalf of the various Car manufacturers, outlines all car makes and models and provides information on the vehicles ability to run on unleaded gasoline.

"All cars in the UAE can run on unleaded gasoline, but with over 750,000 UAE motorists making the move to unleaded gasoline, we wanted to ensure that the general public are given comprehensive guidance and information regarding the changeover", said Dr. Saad Al Numairy, Environmental Advisor and Chairman of The Committee on Public Awareness for the Introduction of Unleaded Gasoline.

"We have produced one million pieces of printed material to support this campaign. Copies of the Motorist Guidebook and pamphlet will be distributed free of charge through a network of 500 service stations from today. With almost 8000 service station staff available to assist motorists, our goal is to educate and guide UAE motorists through the change with ease and this is just a first step in a very comprehensive information programme." Al Numairy concluded.
