Dubai Autodrome
The heart of Motor City, Dubai Autodrome hosts international motorsport events, karting, driving experiences and track days, giving the community its distinctive identity.
Discover Motor City Dubai
Originally conceived around a motorsport-inspired vision, Motor City Dubai has evolved into one of the city’s most established residential neighbourhoods. Developed by Union Properties, the community was designed as a mixed-use destination where homes, offices, retail and leisure facilities coexist within a thoughtfully planned environment. While the Dubai Autodrome remains its defining landmark, Motor City is equally recognised for its landscaped streets, low-rise architecture and generous open spaces. Its central position within Dubailand and well-developed infrastructure continue to attract families, professionals and investors seeking a quieter alternative to Dubai’s higher-density districts.
Residential options across Dubai Motor City include spacious apartments, villas and townhouses spread across neighbourhoods such as Uptown Motor City and Green Community Motor City. Residents enjoy a walkable environment supported by parks, cycling paths, fitness centres, cafés, restaurants and First Avenue Mall, while the Dubai Autodrome adds a recreational element unique to the community. Schools, healthcare facilities and everyday retail are already well established, allowing residents to meet most daily needs close to home. Convenient road connections via Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road place Dubai Marina, Dubai Hills Estate, Arabian Ranches and other key destinations within easy reach.
The off-plan market in Motor City continues to expand, with new residential launches complementing one of Dubai’s most established communities. Buyers can choose modern apartments with flexible payment plans while benefiting from completed infrastructure, established amenities and consistent residential demand. Strong interest in Motor City properties, including apartments, villas and townhouses, continues to support long-term capital appreciation and rental performance.

Its location between Dubai Sports City, Arabian Ranches and Dubai Studio City also places residents within easy reach of key destinations across Dubailand.
Life in Motor City extends well beyond its motorsport heritage. First Avenue Mall acts as the community’s retail and dining hub, while cafés, restaurants, supermarkets, fitness centres and healthcare facilities support everyday living.
