Implementation Guide (2025 Standards)
1. Choosing Your System
✔ RTA-certified devices only (new 2025 approval list)
✔ Hydrogen/EV-ready for future fleets
✔ Arabic-language AI assistants
2. Installation Process
-
2025 regulations require:
-
Government-licensed technicians
-
Live testing with RTA monitoring portal
-
-
1-hour per vehicle for self-calibrating sensors
3. Driver Training
-
VR simulations for eco-driving
-
AED bonuses for top 10% fuel savers
The Future (2026 Preview)
-
