Istanbul Volvo Rental

Would you like to rent a Volvo S60 and XC40 in Istanbul for 4,750-4,900 TL per day? With prices starting from 28,500 TL per week, pick up your vehicle on the European or Asian side, at Istanbul Airport (IST) or Sabiha Gökçen Airport (SAW).

Volvo S60 and XC40 — Which Model Suits You?

Rent-Trip's Volvo fleet consists of two models: the S60 sedan and the XC40 compact SUV. Both come in Premium trim, with a 2.0 L engine and 197 hp power; the difference is determined by the body type and the daily price difference of 150 TL. Below, we compare both models based on business, family, and out-of-town use scenarios.

Volvo S60 — Comfortable Sedan

The Volvo S60 is a sedan that stands out with long-distance comfort and driving dynamics. Its 2.0 L petrol engine produces 197 hp; automatic transmission and 5-seat layout are standard. In city driving, its lower center of gravity compared to a compact SUV makes it feel more stable in corners.

In metropolis traffic and on the highway, the S60's drive is quieter and smoother compared to SUV models. Its trunk is spacious relative to its sedan body; for weekend trips to Şile or Sapanca, two suitcases and shopping fit comfortably. Rear legroom is sufficient for tall passengers, but the XC40's upright roof is more practical when installing a child seat.

At Rent-Trip, the daily price for the S60 is 4,750 TL, including VAT. We recommend this model for trips of one or two people who will mainly drive in the city and seek comfort on long journeys.

Volvo XC40 — Compact SUV

The Volvo XC40 differs from the S60 with its high seating position and spacious interior. The same 2.0 L petrol engine and 197 hp are offered in an SUV body with automatic transmission; 5-seat capacity is standard. The elevated seating position enhances city visibility, and the tailgate height makes it easy to load a stroller or large shopping bags.

In the city's narrow streets, the XC40's compact SUV dimensions are an advantage; being shorter than the S60 makes parking easier. Although the trunk volume is similar to the sedan's, the upright-opening tailgate offers more flexibility when loading bulky items. The rear seat folds in a 40/60 split, allowing you to carry a ski bag or a folding bike.

At TRY 4,900 per day, VAT included, the XC40 is the option at Rent-Trip for drivers who want an SUV advantage for family use and out-of-town routes. If you are used to high-bodied vehicles, this model gives a more familiar driving feel than the S60.

S60 and XC40 Comparison Table

Since both models use the same engine, fuel consumption is similar. The S60 is more economical for highway-heavy long trips and business travel; the XC40 is advantageous for urban practicality and family use. Since automatic transmission and petrol engine are standard in both options, the decision depends on body type and budget.

A — Volvo S60 — comfortable sedan

The Volvo S60 is the mid-size sedan option in Rent-Trip's Volvo rental fleet; due to its body type, it combines long-distance comfort with city practicality. This premium segment vehicle, with its 2.0-liter petrol engine and 197 hp, offers adequate power both on the D-100 highway and at motorway speeds. The automatic transmission spares the driver the hassle of manual shifting during stop-and-go traffic; its 5-seat capacity provides comfortable space for four adults and luggage.

Most of our customers who choose the S60 prioritize comfort for business trips or intercity visits. The sedan body has a lower center of gravity compared to SUV models; this means more balanced handling in corners. The interior features a Scandinavian design line: a minimalist dashboard, leather upholstery, and equipment such as heated front seats come as standard. The trunk capacity handles daily use scenarios from a weekend bag to a golf set; for short getaways like Sapanca or Bursa, there's no need for extra roof bars.

The daily rental rate for this model is 4,750 TL, and the price includes VAT. In the weekly rate, the daily fee is calculated on a six-day basis; in the monthly rate, a twenty-one-day basis is used; thus, the daily cost decreases for long-term rentals. The S60, which is only 150 TL cheaper than the XC40 SUV with the same engine and equipment level, is a sensible starting point for drivers who want to keep their budget balanced but do not want to compromise on the Premium segment.

In Turkey, compulsory traffic insurance legally covers every registered vehicle; it also applies to the S60 rented from Rent-Trip. Coverage options beyond the scope are set out in the contract. When taking delivery of the vehicle, it is worth reminding that if the driver's license is not written in Latin script, an international driving permit (IDP) is required; this detail prevents time loss at airport delivery.

B — Volvo XC40 — compact SUV

The Volvo XC40 is our model offering premium features in the compact SUV class; its daily rental price is 4,900 TRY including VAT. In city use, the high seating position and short body provide practicality in narrow streets and heavy traffic. The 2.0 L petrol engine producing 197 hp is paired with an automatic transmission and has a 5-seat capacity.

The XC40's ground clearance makes it easier to park against curbs on the European side and to drive on rough surfaces like the Şile road. Its trunk opening is more upright than the S60 sedan's, making it practical for loading a stroller or large suitcases. We deliver the vehicle to both sides of the metropolis; during delivery, we check the vehicle's condition and fuel level together. Details regarding rental conditions, deposit, and insurance coverage are set out in the rental agreement.

SUV rental: The XC40 offers a higher driving position and more interior space than sedans. Automatic transmission: In both Volvo models, automatic transmission is standard; gear changes provide comfort in city traffic. Petrol engine: The 2.0 L turbo petrol unit runs quietly at low revs on long journeys and produces 197 hp.

For families and passengers with children, the XC40's rear doors open wide, so installing a child seat requires less effort than in the S60. The rear seats fold in a 60/40 ratio to increase luggage capacity; this allows ski bags or camping equipment to fit easily on weekend routes like Sapanca or Uludağ. Although it may snow in the city in winter, since there are no mountains around, four-wheel drive is not needed; our XC40 is front-wheel drive and its standard equipment is sufficient for daily use.

C — S60 vs XC40 Comparison Table

Volvo S60 and XC40 belong to the same premium class, but their body types cater to different needs. The table below shows the two models side by side in terms of technical specifications and price.

Both vehicles share the same engine, same transmission, and same fuel type; the only difference is the body type and, accordingly, the daily price difference of TRY 150. The S60, with its sedan body, offers lower fuel consumption on long journeys, while the XC40's SUV structure provides a high driving position and ample luggage space. Both models have 5 seats, meaning a comfortable journey for four passengers plus the driver.

Body type: The sedan (S60) is more aerodynamic; the SUV (XC40) is advantageous in city maneuvers and tight parking spots. Trunk capacity: The XC40's upright rear section is more practical for bulky items compared to the S60's sedan trunk. Driving position: The XC40's high seating position widens the field of view, especially in city traffic. Price difference: The 150 TL/day difference between the two models equals 900 TL on a weekly rental.

At Rent-Trip, both Volvo models are delivered to every point in the metropolis and to IST/SAW airports. If city driving is predominant, the S60 is sufficient; but if you are traveling with family or frequently heading out of town, the XC40's SUV advantages justify the price difference.

Volvo Rental Prices — Daily, Weekly, Monthly

At Rent-Trip, Volvo rental prices start from 4,750–4,900 TL per day, including VAT. Prices vary by model: the S60 sedan is 4,750 TL/day, and the XC40 SUV is 4,900 TL/day. As the rental period lengthens, the daily cost decreases—in weekly and monthly rates, the charge for each day is more advantageous compared to a single-day rental.

Daily Prices — VAT included

At Rent-Trip, the daily rate for the S60 is 4,750 TL, and for the XC40 it is 4,900 TL; both figures include VAT. Since the value-added tax rate in Turkey is 20%, the amount you see on the site is the final amount you will pay—no extra tax surprises. The price also includes compulsory traffic insurance, which legally covers every vehicle registered in Turkey. The daily rate is suitable for short city plans and single-day business meetings. Pricing including VAT is especially practical for those who want to clarify their budget in advance for corporate travel.

Weekly and Monthly Rates

• Weekly rental: Starts from TRY 28,500 – calculated for 6 days for the S60, while for the XC40 it amounts to TRY 29,400.
• Monthly rental: Starting from TRY 99,750 — covers 21 days of use for the S60, while for the XC40 it becomes TRY 102,900.
• Calculation logic: The weekly rate is 6 times the daily fee, and the monthly rate is 21 times; thus, over the long term, the daily cost decreases.
• Long-term advantage: In monthly rental, the daily cost becomes more economical when the daily rate of 4,750 TL is distributed over 21 days instead of paying 4,750 TL per day.
• Flexibility: Weekly and monthly plans are designed for those staying in Istanbul for medium to long periods.

What's included in the price?

All daily, weekly and monthly Volvo rental prices include VAT and compulsory traffic insurance. Vehicle delivery is free within Istanbul and to both airports — this service is included in the price. HGS bridge and highway tolls are your responsibility from the moment you pick up the vehicle. The conditions of additional services, such as adding an extra driver or different insurance coverage, are set out in the rental agreement. The fuel policy is also explained in the agreement; you can confirm from the contract whether the vehicle is delivered with a full tank or at its current level. If you are planning an out-of-town trip, it is advisable to review the contract details before renting to get information about long-distance tariffs.

A — Daily prices — VAT included

At Rent-Trip, daily Volvo rental prices start from 4,750 TL and vary depending on the vehicle model: 4,750 TL for the Volvo S60 sedan and 4,900 TL for the Volvo XC40 SUV. Both prices include VAT, so this is the final amount you need to pay. As the rental period lengthens, the daily cost decreases; with weekly and monthly rates, you go below the daily price.

In addition to VAT, the daily price also includes mandatory traffic insurance. This insurance legally covers every vehicle registered in Turkey and also applies to rental cars. The deposit amount, mileage limit, and scope of additional insurance packages are specified in the vehicle's contract — these conditions are clearly stated in the agreement before the rental.

• Volvo S60: TRY 4,750/day — Premium sedan, 2.0 L engine, 197 hp, automatic transmission, petrol, 5 seats.
• Volvo XC40: TRY 4,900/day — Premium SUV, 2.0 L engine, 197 hp, automatic transmission, petrol, 5 seats.

Both models share the same engine and equipment class; the price difference comes from the body type. You can adjust your budget with a difference of TRY 150/day depending on whether you prefer a sedan or an SUV. In city use, the S60's driving comfort stands out, while if you need high clearance and luggage space, the XC40's practicality does.

B — Weekly and monthly tariffs

Weekly rental for the Volvo S60 and XC40 starts at 28,500 TRY and monthly at 99,750 TRY; these rates are calculated by multiplying the daily price by 6 and 21 days, respectively. Using the S60, with a daily rate of 4,750 TRY, for a week makes a noticeable difference compared to booking single days: while the daily total for 7 days amounts to 33,250 TRY, the weekly rate is 28,500 TRY. The same logic applies to the XC40: based on a daily fee of 4,900 TRY, you pay 28,500 TRY instead of a weekly 29,400 TRY. Weekly and monthly plans are more advantageous than daily rentals for those staying longer than a week or taking long trips out of town.

• Weekly rental: Starts from TRY 28,500; it is the daily rate multiplied by 6 days, with the 7th day effectively discounted.
• Monthly rental: Starting from TRY 99,750; the daily rate is calculated over 21 business days, and weekends are not subject to additional charges.
• VAT included: All prices given include 20% VAT; no additional tax item will appear in the contract.
• Flexibility: Even with a weekly or monthly package, vehicle delivery is free to every point in the city and to IST and SAW airports.

The monthly rate offers the lowest daily cost for business trips or long stays: dividing 99,750 TL by 30 days brings the daily cost down to 3,325 TL. This is a 32% advantage compared to the daily rate of 4,900 TL for the XC40. In weekly and monthly rentals, a lower daily rate is a general industry rule; at Rent-Trip, this difference is directly reflected in the rate. Whichever duration you choose, the total amount and payment terms are clearly set out in the rental agreement — specified in the contract.

HGS and Bridge Crossings — Practical Guide

When traveling with Volvo in Istanbul, HGS (Fast Pass System) is mandatory for bridge and motorway crossings; all Rent-Trip vehicles are equipped with an HGS tag. From the moment you receive the vehicle, toll fees are your responsibility and are clearly stated in the contract.

Current Bridge and Tunnel Tolls

Unpaid crossings ("violation crossings") can incur a penalty of four times the fee if not paid on time; therefore, we recommend checking your HGS balance after each crossing. For intra-city Asian–European crossings, using the Eurasia Tunnel at night is 140 TL more economical than during the day.

Delivery and Return Process

At Rent-Trip, Volvo rental delivery is free to all districts of Istanbul and to both airports; since we have no physical office, the entire process is conducted online. You receive the vehicle at your desired address, hotel, or airport arrival point.

Delivery Checklist

• Documents: Passport, entry stamp, and driver's license; if not written in the Latin alphabet, an international driving permit (IDP) is required.
• Security block: A credit card issued in the main driver's name is mandatory; the hold amount is set out in the rental agreement.
• Vehicle condition: At delivery, existing damages and the fuel level are checked together and recorded in the report.
• HGS balance: Is the car's HGS tag active and is the balance sufficient for tolls—this is confirmed at the time of delivery.

During the return process, the vehicle is returned with the fuel level you received it and in accordance with the conditions in the contract. If you are coming from out of town, simply notify us in advance of your arrival time at Istanbul Airport (IST) or Sabiha Gökçen Airport (SAW) — the vehicle will be ready for you.
