How Much Does It Cost to Rent a Car in Dubai?
Renting a car in Dubai costs from around AED 89–110 per day for economy cars, AED 175–230 for sedans and SUVs, and AED 800+ for luxury cars. Monthly rental cuts the effective daily rate by more than half.

Daily rates by car type
Economy (Sunny, Picanto): AED 89–120/day. Sedan (Camry, Accord): AED 175–200/day. SUV (Sportage, Patrol): AED 220–550/day. Luxury (S-Class, 7 Series): AED 800–900/day. Supercar (Huracán, 488): AED 1,500–3,500/day. Rates move with season — winter (Oct–Apr) is peak.
Monthly rates — the real saving
Monthly plans start around AED 1,399 for economy — under AED 47/day. If you need a car for 3+ weeks, monthly is always cheaper than extending a daily rate.
Extra costs: Salik, fuel, deposit
Salik toll gates charge AED 4 per crossing, billed monthly. Fuel is on you — return the car at the same level. Deposits (AED 1,000–10,000) are pre-authorised, not charged, and released 14–30 days after return. No-deposit options exist on selected cars.
