Emirates National Auto Museum

Hameem Road, Abu Dhabi, Abu Dhabi

Description

The Emirates National Auto Museum is a collection around 200 cars belonging to Sheikh Hamad Bin Hamdan Al Nahyan. These include a mix of vintage/classic cars, military, and off-road vehicles including the world's largest truck. The museum is housed in a large pyramid-shaped building

Access & Transport

The museum is located 60km south of Abu Dhabi city centre (1h drive), just off Hameem road in the Al Dhafra district. There are no public transport options

Meta review

Most of the reviews unsurprisingly come from car afficionados and are therefore quite skewed. Nonetheless, feedback is quite consistent: there are several impressive showpieces but also a considerable number or more standard cars with very few sports cars in the mix (more truck oriented). The main issues are the difficulty in ascertaining whether the museum is open or not (website doesn't get updated), the cash-only payment policy, and the lack of curation with little info displayed for each vehicle.

Environmental & Social

Moderately negative from an environmental standpoint on account of the drive involved and electricity requirement (a/c mostly). Socially neutral

Conclusion

The ENAM is an interesting activity but is held back by its remote location which entails a longish and potentially expensive (if using a taxi) drive out of Abu Dhabi city. In our opinion, it is therefore best reserved to car lovers (obviously) but not that interesting for others unless you happen to be driving in the area for another purpose (such as on the way to or from the Qasr Al Sarab Resort).
