Aston Martin, BMW and Mercedes-Benz are just some of the manufacturers set to have vehicles displayed at the largest auto show in the Middle East, which begins later this month.

The Dubai Motor Show opens on December 16th and is the tenth instalment of the event, which takes place on a biennial basis.

BMW is set to unveil a new model range with a focus on sustainable mobility, while Mercedes-Benz will show off its SLS AMG, complete with gullwing doors.

According to the Independent, Trixee Loh, senior vice president of exhibitions for show organisers Dubai World Trade Centre, said: "To be hosting global launches for such high-profile brands as Arash Super Cars, Kepler, Kia, Mercedes-Benz and Renault puts the Dubai Motor Show and the Middle East in the world spotlight, and ends the year on an undeniably positive note."

In all, 14 vehicles are set to be handed their world launch at the event, with over 90 international manufacturers displaying their latest designs in 2007.

The last day of the show, which takes place at the Dubai International Convention and Exhibition Centre, is December 20th.
