Motor City

Motor City is a freehold, mixed-use community developed by Union Properties, centred on the Dubai Autodrome racing circuit. It sits within the broader Dubailand zone and draws buyers who want space, lower density, and a neighbourhood feel without a premium address price tag.

Location & connectivity

Motor City sits along Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road (E311) and is accessible via Hessa Street. DIFC is roughly a 25-min drive, Dubai Marina around 20 mins, and Downtown Dubai about 25 mins. There is no metro station in Motor City; residents rely on cars or taxis, though the Sharafuddin Road Bus Stop on nearby routes provides limited public transport.

• •Apartments: Green Community Motor City (low-rise blocks), SpeedO, Uptown Motor City (high-rise towers with retail podiums)

Things to consider

Motor City has no metro access, making car ownership essential. Traffic on Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road during peak hours can add meaningful time to commutes toward central Dubai.
