The revamped compact SUV masterfully combines modern design elements with advanced safety features and a comfortable interior, making it a compelling choice for families and urban drivers alike.
With a bold exterior, the new TIGGO 4 showcases Chery's signature "Tiger Face" flashing a biomimetic tiger face front design that exudes strength and sophistication.

Best budget cars in the UAE for less than Dh100k, from BYD and Jetour to Toyota and Mazda
Inflation is real. You only need glance at the receipts of your weekly groceries to glean that your hard-earned dirhams don't carry you nearly as far as they used to five years ago. Even so, those in the market for a new car can take heart as there's still an assortment of capable vehicles priced under the Dh100,000 mark – be it a sedan or SUV. The influx of Chinese brands in recent years has added great depth to the market and triggered even keener competition among carmakers to snare budget-conscious buyers. Here is our guide to the dozen best sub-Dh100,000 buys. BYD Qin Plus Design, from Dh74,900 China's BYD (Build Your Dreams) is on a charge, last year eclipsing Tesla as the world's biggest seller of EVs. The Qin Plus Design sedan is the brand's most affordable model, priced from Dh75,000. Propulsion comes from a 1.5-litre hybrid motor that ekes out 177hp and 316Nm, so you get lively performance, along with a claimed touring range of 755km on a tank of fuel. The cabin is smartly presented, and standard kit includes twin airbags, Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, cruise control and a 10.1-inch infotainment screen. Chery Tiggo 7 Pro Max, from Dh82,500 Chery's Tiggo 7 Pro Max represents great value for money as it's a spacious and feature-laden SUV for just over Dh80,000. The Tiggo 7's motive power is provided by a 1.6-litre turbo motor that cranks out 197hp and 290Nm, with drive relayed to the wheels via a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic. Chery quotes a respectable 0-100kph split of 8.28 seconds, and a miserly fuel consumption of 6.6 litres per 100km. The generous standard features quota includes LED headlights and taillights, 18-inch alloys, an electric tailgate, eight-speaker Sony audio, dual 12.3-inch display screens and Apple CarPlay/Android Auto. Geely Preface, from Dh87,400 Geely has some excellent vehicles in its line-up, and among these is the stylish Preface. Offering prestige-car comfort and quality at a wallet-friendly price, the 4.8-metre-long sedan is also decently rapid. Its 2.0-litre turbo motor sends outputs of 215hp to the front wheels via a seven-speed dual-clutch auto, enabling it to dash from 0 to 100kph in just 6.9 seconds. The tastefully trimmed cabin features a 13.2-inch infotainment screen and a 10.2-inch full-colour LCD instrument cluster. Among the safety features on offer is ADAS driver assistance system that includes adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist and automatic emergency braking. Hyundai Kona, from Dh85,000 The futuristically styled Hyundai Kona is a popular seller in the UAE, and with good reason. Embodying the comprehensive engineering and immaculate build quality synonymous with the South Korean marque, the Kona also hits the sweet spot with its affordable price tag and compact yet spacious dimensions. Serving up polished ride and handling that's up there with European brands, the Kona is a pleasant chariot to pedal, although the standard 149hp 2.0-litre engine is a bit short on grunt. The attractively presented cabin features a dual 12.3-inch digitised display and premium (for the price) trim materials. Jetour Dashing, from Dh93,450 The Jetour Dashing is another Chinese offering that's been a hit in the UAE, with its striking looks and impressive fit and finish serving as major drawcards. Measuring 4.6 metres, the Dashing offers comfortable seating for five and a decently sized cargo bay. The standard 1.5-litre turbo engine doles out a modest 157hp and 210Nm but spending a bit more will get you a livelier and more desirable 1.6-litre engine with 190hp/275Nm. The cabin is cutting edge for its segment, with an expansive 15.6-inch infotainment screen dominating the user interface. The Jetour is backed by an industry-leading 10-year, warranty up to 1 million kilometres. Kia K4, from Dh81,990 Kia has steadily expanded its reach with an ever-growing portfolio of capable offerings, and the latest addition to the range is the space-age-inspired K4 sedan. Its mould-breaking design language sets the Kia fastback apart from anything else in its segment, and the rest of the package is appealing too. The driver is faced by a huge 29.9-inch panoramic display that houses three screens, providing an immersive digital experience across the dashboard. The rest of the cabin is also ultra-modern in look and feel, while standard features include front and rear parking sensors, dual airbags and LED headlights. Mazda CX-30, from Dh92,000 If driver engagement and aesthetic appeal are the yardsticks, Mazda is among the best of the Japanese car brands. The CX-30 is the embodiment of both these attributes, and its keen pricing means you can acquire a premium-feel vehicle for an affordable outlay. The pleasingly proportioned bodywork is complemented by an attractive and sensibly laid-out cabin, even if larger individuals might find rear space a bit tight. The Mazda is a delight to drive, and even the base model is equipped with 18-inch alloys, seven airbags, an eight-speaker stereo, cruise control, rear parking sensors and a reversing camera. MG HS, from Dh88,830 The HS compact SUV showcases the engineering depth and stylistic appeal that are characteristics of MG's recent offerings, and it's also excellent value. Measuring just under 4.7 metres from bumper to bumper, the MG seats five in comfort and offers 507 litres of luggage space, making it a sound choice for couples with two or three kids in tow. Unlike some SUVs, the HS isn't a frumpy looker, and it also drives with a decent level of flair. A 1.5-litre turbo motor with 173hp and 275Nm is standard, but an added spend gets you a punchier 231hp 2.0-litre engine. Nissan Kicks, from Dh84,900 The second-generation Nissan Kicks is altogether more desirable than its predecessor, debuting eye-catching new styling and a much more substantial footprint on the road as it's 71mm longer and 41mm wider than the oldie. Its chunky bodywork clothes a capable chassis that delivers tidy ride and handling, while the 2.0-litre engine's outputs of 142hp and 190Nm make for respectable performance. Although compact in exterior dimensions, efficient packaging means the Kicks isn't claustrophobic inside. Cabin highlights in the base model include a 12.3-inch infotainment screen, cruise control and Apple CarPlay/Android Auto. Renault Arkana, from Dh83,900 Renault is a brand that flies under the radar in the UAE, but there's plenty to like about the coupe-esque Arkana SUV. A 1.3-litre turbo motor might seem small for a mid-size five-seat SUV, but outputs of 155hp and 262Nm deliver a 0-100kph sprint in 9.1 seconds, which is decent for its segment. The seven-speed dual-clutch auto is a smooth-shifting unit, and the Arkana rides and handles with a decent level of composure. Renault is big on safety, and among the accident-avoiding features available in the Arkana are a 360-degree camera, adaptive cruise control and emergency braking. Toyota Corolla, from Dh76,900 The trusty Toyota Corolla is the best-selling automotive nameplate of all time, with more than 50 million units sold since the original launched in 1966. It's no surprise, as bulletproof reliability and user-friendly driving characteristics have ensured the Toyota stalwart remains a popular choice around the world. Although past Corolla generations have been somewhat staid, the latest version is a decent looker and engaging to drive. Build quality is immaculate, too. The base model is powered by a 121hp 1.6-litre motor, but we'd recommend spending Dh7,000 extra for the 168hp 2.0-litre unit if you can afford it. Volkswagen T-Roc, from Dh94,900 Volkswagen is another brand that has traded on its robust durability and day-to-day dependability. The T-Roc blends these traits in a practical and neat-looking compact SUV that brings German quality within the grasp of many buyers. Its 1.4-litre turbo engine punches out 150hp and 250Nm, with an eight-speed auto dispensing these outputs with utmost smoothness. As you'd expect, safety is a strong point, with standard features including six airbags, front and rear parking sensors and lane-change assist with blind-spot monitor. The base model rides on 16-inch alloys and is equipped with black roof rails and LED headlights and taillights.

Revolutionising Accessibility with Tongue‑Driven Computing
A pioneering device, the MouthPad by Augmental, now enables users with paralysis or limited mobility to control digital devices using only tongue and head movements. Introduced this year, the device combines a tongue‑sensitive touchpad and motion sensors embedded into a custom dental retainer, delivering seamless Bluetooth cursor control and click functions across phones, tablets, and computers. Developed by MIT alumnus and CEO Tomás Vega, the MouthPad capitalises on the tongue's unique neurological and muscular traits. Vega points out that substantial brainpower manages tongue control, and the organ's slow‑twitch muscles resist fatigue — making it suitable for sustained interaction. Each MouthPad is precision‑fitted using intraoral scans and 3D printing, ensuring comfort and invisibility during use. Users report significant improvements in autonomy. A college student with quadriplegia now uses it daily for studying and note‑taking, activities previously difficult with speech‑based aids. Testimonials on Augmental's website describe seamless device switching via Bluetooth, five‑hour battery life, and intuitive learning curves — some mastered functional use within an hour. ADVERTISEMENT At the CSUN Accessibility Conference in Anaheim, Augmental's team confirmed that production for their next batch will begin this summer, primarily catering to those with mobility impairments, while exploring new verticals during hands‑busy activities, such as surgery or musical performance. Priced at approximately US $1,500, funding partnerships with veterans' services and vocational rehabilitation programmes have facilitated acquisition. Looking ahead, Augmental is advancing toward US Food and Drug Administration clearances to support integration with wheelchairs, exoskeletons, robotic limbs, and potential insurance coverage. Future iterations aim to incorporate whisper detection and subtle internal speech recognition — especially useful for individuals with impaired lung function. Academic innovations like ChinMotion and silent speech EMG systems provide complementary advances in hands‑free control, but Augmental's blend of custom design, comfort, and real‑world delivery places it at the forefront of assistive hardware this year. The MouthPad exemplifies a broader trend: designing for accessibility can spark mainstream breakthroughs. As Vega highlights, many everyday technologies began as assistive tools — voice assistants, captioning, predictive text — and later permeated wider consumer use. By rethinking fundamental human–computer interfaces, devices like the MouthPad not only expand accessibility but also redefine interaction paradigms.

Infiniti QX80 Redefines Luxury with Striking 2025 Overhaul
The 2025 Infiniti QX80 marks a significant departure from its predecessor, delivering a blend of commanding presence and refined agility rarely seen in full-size luxury SUVs. Infiniti's latest iteration sheds the bulkiness that once defined the model, replacing it with a sleeker, more aerodynamic silhouette while enhancing interior sophistication and technological integration. This transformation reflects the brand's push to compete more aggressively within the crowded luxury SUV segment dominated by the likes of Cadillac Escalade and Lincoln Navigator. The most immediately noticeable change is the QX80's exterior design. Infiniti's design team has introduced sharper lines, a more prominent grille, and sculpted body panels that give the SUV a poised yet muscular stance. The vehicle's length and height have been marginally reduced, improving road handling without sacrificing cabin space. The all-new platform supporting the 2025 QX80 enables this balance, engineered to provide both strength and lighter weight, enhancing performance and fuel efficiency. Infiniti has also employed active aerodynamic features to reduce drag, a feature typically reserved for sports cars, underscoring its commitment to marrying power with efficiency. Beneath the hood, the QX80 retains a robust 5.6-litre V8 engine, delivering 400 horsepower and 413 lb-ft of torque. However, the powertrain benefits from a refined direct-injection system and improved engine management software that contribute to smoother acceleration and a slight boost in fuel economy compared to previous models. An advanced 10-speed automatic transmission further refines the driving experience, offering quick gear changes and better adaptability across varying driving conditions. Infiniti has also incorporated a new adaptive suspension system that automatically adjusts to road surfaces, ensuring a balance of comfort and handling precision. ADVERTISEMENT The interior of the 2025 QX80 showcases Infiniti's renewed focus on luxury and technology. The cabin has been redesigned with higher quality materials, including open-pore wood trims, hand-stitched leather upholstery, and metal accents that elevate the tactile experience. Space remains generous for all seven passengers, with second-row captain's chairs and an optional premium rear-seat entertainment package catering to family comfort and convenience. Ambient lighting is now customizable, providing a mood-enhancing atmosphere that complements the quietness achieved through improved sound insulation. Infotainment advances include a large, vertically oriented touchscreen interface that integrates navigation, media, and vehicle settings with greater responsiveness and clarity. The system supports wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, alongside a bespoke 19-speaker Bose Performance Series audio setup that delivers immersive sound quality. Infiniti has also expanded its suite of driver assistance features, adding adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go functionality, lane-keeping assist, and a 360-degree camera system, all aimed at enhancing safety and ease of driving in urban and highway environments. Market analysts view the 2025 QX80 as a critical model for Infiniti, given the brand's ambition to regain lost ground in the competitive luxury SUV market. The refreshed model is positioned to attract both loyal Infiniti customers and newcomers seeking a vehicle that combines traditional luxury cues with modern performance and technology. Pricing is expected to be competitive, aligning with rivals while offering unique value through Infiniti's distinctive design language and feature set. Industry insiders note that the QX80's evolution reflects broader trends in luxury automotive design, where manufacturers increasingly focus on blending capability with refinement and sustainability. While the 2025 QX80 does not yet incorporate hybrid or fully electric powertrains, Infiniti has confirmed ongoing development in electrification, hinting that future versions could embrace greener technologies to meet tightening emissions regulations and changing consumer preferences.
