Convertibles car rental in Tbilisi

From $69 per day, Rent-Trip offers convertibles car rental in Tbilisi — one Mini Cabrio in the fleet, a four-seat automatic petrol hatchback convertible with 136 hp, delivered to any address in the city and to Tbilisi International Airport (TBS) or Kutaisi International Airport (KUT).

Can you actually rent a convertible car in Tbilisi

Yes — but the open-top class here is one car, not a fleet, and that single fact shapes everything: how early you book, how firm your dates need to be, and why a manager rather than a calendar decides whether the Mini Cabrio is yours.

Which convertible is available for hire right now

Our open-top fleet is one car — a Mini Cabrio, the only model of its kind we list on this page. It is a four-seat hatchback with a petrol engine, an automatic gearbox, front-wheel drive and 136 hp, priced from $69 per day. There is no second convertible behind it, no backup colour, no alternative model to switch to if the dates clash. That is the honest picture of the class, and it is worth knowing before you build a trip around it. Because the class is a single unit, availability is a calendar question rather than a stock question — the date you want is either free or it is not, and only a manager can confirm which.

Why the open-top class is so thin here

A thin class rewards early planning: the practical move is to fix your dates first and choose the car second, not the other way round.

What that means for your dates

• Book around the car, not the calendar: with one unit in the class, the sensible order is to pick your travel dates, then confirm the car against them before you pay for flights.
• Ask before you assume: a manager checks the actual booking sheet, which is the only place that shows whether your window is open.
• Have a fallback in mind: if the dates are taken, the alternative is a different class of car rather than a different convertible.
• Longer bookings hold the car longer: a weekly or monthly booking removes the unit from the pool for that whole stretch, which is exactly why those windows need confirming first.

Convertibles car rental in Tbilisi costs and booking

One car, one daily rate, three ways to count it — and a booking that is not fixed until a manager has agreed the delivery address, the date and the time with you.

Daily, weekly and monthly rates for the convertible

How longer bookings are counted

The Mini Cabrio starts at $69 per day, $414 per week and $1,449 per month. Weekly is priced as the daily rate multiplied by 6, and monthly as the daily rate multiplied by 21 — so a month is not thirty separate days at the daily figure, and the difference between the three lines comes from the multiplier rather than from a seasonal discount. On a seven-day booking that works out at $414, which is the number to compare against the daily rate when you are deciding how long to keep the car.

How the booking is agreed with a manager

A booking is fixed only after a manager agrees the delivery address, the date and the time with you. That conversation is where the practical details land: where the car meets you, at what hour, and whether the dates you want are workable at all. It is also the right moment to ask what the rental agreement contains, because the deposit, the insurance excess and any fees sit in that document rather than in a headline number — read it before the hand-over, not after. We supply the car with a full tank and expect it back full; the missing fuel and a refuelling service fee are charged as set out in the same agreement.

What the price does not include

The daily rate covers the car itself, on the dates agreed. Fuel is yours, and so is parking — street parking in Tbilisi runs from 1 ₾ per hour after the first 15 free minutes, paid through the Tbilisi Parking app or at terminals. Georgia's international and domestic roads remain free of charge, so a run out of the city adds fuel and nothing else in tolls. Parking fines are the one figure worth remembering at 50 ₾, with a 20% discount for payment within 10 days.

Mini Cabrio specs for convertibles car rental in Tbilisi

One car sits in the Convertibles class on this page: the Mini Cabrio. What follows is what you actually get — body, seating, boot, engine — and how each number translates into a day of driving.

Engine, gearbox and drivetrain in plain numbers

The car runs on petrol with an automatic transmission, front-wheel drive and 136 hp. Check the tyre condition and pressures at hand-over: on mountain roads, correct pressure matters more than the badge on the sidewall.

How it drives in city conditions

Parking in the zoned street areas runs from 1 ₾ per hour after the first 15 free minutes, paid through the Tbilisi Parking app or the terminals. Fuel is petrol, currently around 4.06 ₾ per litre, and the car leaves our hands with a full tank and comes back full — full-to-full, as set out in the rental agreement.

Handover and fuel for convertibles car rental in Tbilisi

Hand-over is where a one-car class becomes practical or awkward, and the fuel rule is the one number that follows you to the end of the rental. Both are settled before you ever see the Mini Cabrio.

Delivery addresses we actually cover

• Any address in Tbilisi: we bring the car to the street and building you name, whether that is a hotel, a flat or a friend's courtyard, and the manager confirms the exact spot in advance.
• Tbilisi International Airport (TBS): the car can be waiting when you land, 17 km south-east of the centre by road.
• Kutaisi International Airport (KUT): 241 km from the capital, and still a delivery point we name rather than a request we field afterwards.
• Outside these three: arranged case by case and never promised on the site — ask the manager before you plan around it.
• The date and the time: agreed with a manager before the booking is fixed, not chosen from a drop-down list.

How the fuel works

The convertible car rental in Tbilisi comes with a full tank and goes back with a full tank — full-to-full, the only fuel option we offer. There is no pre-paid tank and no full-to-empty arrangement on this page. If the car returns short, the missing fuel and a refuelling service fee are charged as set out in the rental agreement. Petrol in Georgia cost 4.06 lari per litre on 21.09.2026, against 4.76 for diesel, so a full tank on the Mini Cabrio is the cheaper of the two fuels to replace.

What is agreed, and when

The delivery address, the date and the time are confirmed with a manager before the booking is fixed, so nothing about the hand-over is left to the day itself. Deposit, insurance excess, delivery fees and any discount sit in the rental agreement rather than in a headline figure — read that document before the car changes hands, not after. The car arrives clean with a full tank.

Driving a convertible car rental in Tbilisi on local roads

The open-top car changes very little about how you drive here — the rules are the same as in any other vehicle — but it changes a lot about what you notice.

How the road rules work with the roof down

Built-up areas are capped at 60 km/h, residential zones at 20 km/h, and outside built-up areas the limit for a category B car is 90 km/h, rising to 110 km/h on a motorway — the same figures that apply to every other car on the road. Seat belts are required for the driver and all front passengers; rear belts are not compulsory by law. Phones are hands-free only, with both hands on the wheel. Children under 3 travel in the rear in a child seat or restraint matched to height and weight, and a child under 6 may not be left alone in a parked car. The alcohol limit is 0.3 ‰, — and in an open cabin, belt and phone use are plain to see.

Parking, fuel and the small costs of a day out

Street parking in the capital is zonal: from 1 ₾ per hour after the first 15 free minutes, paid through the Tbilisi Parking app, at parking meters or on parking.tbilisi.gov.ge. An unpaid parking session carries a 50 ₾ fine, and a towed car costs 150 ₾ plus 20 ₾ per day of storage. Petrol was 4.06 ₾ per litre and diesel 4.76 ₾ per litre on 21.09.2026 — diesel runs about 17 % dearer. Georgia's international and domestic roads remain free of charge, with no vignettes and no transponders, and the 52 km Rikoti section of the E60, opened on 29.12.2025 with 51 tunnels and 97 bridges, is free as well.

Where an open car earns its place — and where it does not

• The Military Georgian Road towards Gudauri: the S3 climbs through Zhinvali, Ananuri, Pasanauri and Gudauri to the Jvari pass at 2,379 m, and the upper stretches close when avalanche risk is high — a route to check before setting out, not one to improvise.
• Winter months: winter tyres are mandatory from 1 December to 1 March, and in government-designated zones chains on at least two front wheels may be required in particular weather.

Open-top routes for convertibles car rental in Tbilisi

Below are the runs that suit the Mini Cabrio, with distances from Freedom Square.

North to the mountains: the Georgian Military Road

Stepantsminda is 153 km from the city, Gudauri 121 km, and the S3 climbs to the Jvari pass at 2,379 m before dropping to the Russian border. The upper sections see landslides and snow and close when avalanche risk is high, so build a spare day into the plan.

South and west: the long, dry runs

David Gareja is 98 km, Uplistsikhe 95 km, Borjomi 160 km, Bakuriani 184 km, Vardzia 225 km. Winter changes the picture — winter tyres are compulsory from 1 December to 1 March, and chains are required on at least two front wheels in government-defined zones under special weather conditions.

• Mtskheta, 26 km: the shortest roof-down loop, easy to fit around a half-day.
• Gudauri, 121 km: ski resort at the Jvari pass, roughly 2–2.5 hours from the city.

When to book a convertible car rental in Tbilisi

One car means one calendar. The Mini Cabrio is either free on your dates or it is not, so the timing question here is not about seasons or demand curves — it is about how far ahead you start looking, and how flexible you are willing to be.

The single-unit problem, stated plainly

A class with one car behaves differently from a class with twenty. With twenty, a busy weekend thins the choice but rarely empties it; with one, the car is booked or it is not, and no amount of calling changes that. The practical consequence is that you should treat the convertible as a date you claim rather than a car you shop for. Decide your window first, then confirm it — not the reverse. If your trip has any slack in it, a day either side of your preferred start is worth more than any amount of comparison shopping, because there is nothing to compare against.

How far ahead to start

• Last minute: still worth asking.
• Flexible travellers: if your trip allows it, name two or three possible start dates when you enquire. With one car in the class, a second option is often the difference between driving open-top and not.

What to have ready before you ask

The booking is agreed with a manager, and the delivery address, the date and the time are settled at that point — so the more of that you can answer in one go, the faster you get a yes or a no. Have your dates, your pick-up time and the address where you want the car brought. Everything else — the deposit, the insurance excess, any fees — sits in the rental agreement rather than in a headline number. Read that document before the hand-over, not after, and the timing question stops being about luck and becomes about preparation.
