Dubai Police Boost Fleet With All-New Volkswagen Amarok
The delivery of the high-tech new vehicle comes from long-term partner Al Nabooda Automobiles, Dubai’s official VW distributor.
Al Nabooda Automobiles LLC, the officially authorized distributor for Volkswagen in Dubai and the Northern Emirates, has formally delivered the all-new Volkswagen Amarok to the Dubai Police fleet. Featuring a comprehensive redesign, robust performance, and off-road capabilities, the new Amarok is poised to support officers in ensuring safe travel for motorists throughout Dubai.
Al Nabooda Automobiles has maintained a longstanding partnership with Dubai Police, supplying the fleet with cutting-edge vehicles renowned for their performance, dependability, and versatility.
H.E. Lieutenant General Abdulla Khalifa Al Marri, Commander-in-Chief of Dubai Police, affirmed the General Command’s dedication to outfitting the tourist security patrol fleet with the latest luxury models:
“We are delighted to cooperate with Al Nabooda Automobiles, a longstanding national company deeply committed to initiatives that positively enhance Dubai’s image and its position as a top destination for living, working, tourism, and investment. We are confident that these cars will contribute to enhancing both the traffic and security sectors, thereby supporting police operations and achieving the strategic goals of maintaining road safety and community security,” His Excellency explained.
Dubai Police hopes that the new Volkswagen vehicles will not only bolster the security presence of the tourist police but also facilitate engagement with tourists, visitors, and the public.

With its exceptional on-road and off-road capabilities, the Amarok is a reliable asset for the Dubai force.

Equipped with advanced 4MOTION all-wheel-drive technology and a differential lock, the Amarok excels in navigating the kinds of harsh terrains often encountered by Dubai Police officers. The adaptable all-wheel-drive system offers four customizable drive modes, ensuring optimal performance on any surface by intelligently distributing power among all four wheels via a multi-plate clutch.
Add in a powerful turbocharged engine, impressive safety features, and a stylish new design, and it’s clear Dubai’s traffic officers will be eager to get behind the wheel of the new Amarok.

At I/O 2026, Sundar Pichai Concedes AI Must Deliver Real Value
Gemini 3.5, a personal agent called Spark, agentic shopping, and Android XR eyewear are all aimed at making AI feel useful, not just impressive.
Google’s annual I/O developer conference (I/O 2026) has recently become a status update on the same question: can the company turn its AI spending into products people use every day? This year, chief executive Sundar Pichai described Google as being in a phase of hyper progress, while conceding this is the part of the cycle where people want to see real value in the products they use on a day-to-day basis.
The strategy on display was to push agents — AI systems that act on a user’s behalf — into nearly every Google product at once. Search now has an “intelligent search box” that returns generated explainer videos alongside links. Gmail, Docs, YouTube and Maps are gaining their own agent layers, including a Docs Live feature that turns spoken instructions into drafted text with citations.
Two new models, Gemini 3.5 and a cheaper Gemini 3.5 Flash, arrived the same day. Google says 900 million people now use Gemini, and that more than 50 billion images have been generated with it. The pricing tier names are likely to confuse buyers: a new AI Ultra plan launches at $100 a month, while the older Gemini AI Ultra drops from $250 to $200.
The flashier announcements were Gemini Omni, a video generator pitched as a more realistic answer to OpenAI’s discontinued Sora 2, and Gemini Spark, a personal agent that handles recurring tasks across a user’s Google account. A new universal shopping cart lets agents complete purchases across multiple retailers from inside Google itself, placing the company between the merchant and the buyer, and also owning the checkout.

Google also confirmed its Android XR eyewear, built with Samsung and frames from Warby Parker and Gentle Monster. Audio-only glasses ship this autumn; a display-equipped version, which would superimpose live translations into the wearer’s field of view, is still in development. Both sets translate, however only the display version shows you the result.
What Pichai did not resolve is the bargain underneath all this. An agent is only useful to the degree it knows your calendar, your inbox, your shopping history and your physical surroundings. Google has now confirmed that, in time, the same context may carry advertising.
