If you need a Hyundai in Dubai, Rent-Trip offers 6 models from AED 55 per day, delivered anywhere in Dubai, 24/7, including airports.
6 Hyundai Models for Rent in Dubai at One Transparent Rate
Renting a Hyundai here with Rent-Trip means choosing from six models at fixed daily rates, with delivery to your door anywhere in the city. Whether you need a compact hatchback for solo commutes along Sheikh Zayed Road or a nine-seater minivan for a group trip to Hatta, the right Hyundai is a matter of matching seats and engine to your plans. Every rate below includes comprehensive CDW insurance and 250 km per day, with any additional terms set out in the rental agreement.
Grand i10, Accent and Elantra — city hatchbacks and sedans
Grand i10: our entry-level Hyundai at AED 55 per day — a 1.2 L hatchback with 87 hp, ideal for short hops between Dubai Marina and Downtown. Accent: a 1.6 L sedan at AED 75 per day, adding a proper boot for airport runs or grocery trips in Karama. Elantra: the midsize option at AED 110 per day, with a 1.6 L engine producing 128 hp and extra rear legroom for passengers.
For daily commutes through Salik gates, the lighter 1.2 L engine in the Grand i10 keeps fuel costs lower than the larger sedans — worth factoring in if you plan to cross the city several times a day.
Creta and Tucson — crossover or full SUV
The Creta, a 1.6 L crossover at AED 130 per day, handles city driving with ease and sits higher than a sedan for better visibility in traffic. The Tucson, our 2.0 L SUV at AED 200 per day with 156 hp, gives you more power for highway runs to Abu Dhabi or Al Ain. Families of four staying in JVC or Al Barsha usually pick the Tucson for its rear legroom and boot space.
Staria — the nine-seater for larger groups
The Staria is our only minivan, seating nine across three rows at AED 300 per day with a 3.5 L engine producing 272 hp. For a group of six to eight travelling together, the daily rate splits below what two separate sedans would cost — and keeps the whole party in one vehicle for stops in Fujairah or Ras Al Khaimah.
Which Hyundai Rental in Dubai Fits Your Trip
Matching the right car to your trip comes down to passenger count, luggage and where you plan to drive. Our fleet spans from the AED 55 per day Grand i10 hatchback to the nine-seat Staria at AED 300 per day, so there is a car for solo commutes, family weeks and group transfers alike. Below is the full lineup with daily rates, followed by a trip-based breakdown.
Grand i10 vs Accent vs Elantra — economy hatchbacks and sedans
The Grand i10 at AED 55 per day is our entry-level city car, and the Accent adds a proper boot for AED 75 per day when you need to carry two or three suitcases. The Elantra, a midsize sedan at AED 110 per day, brings a 128 hp engine and extra rear legroom for longer drives along Sheikh Zayed Road. For Marina-to-Downtown commutes, the 1.2 L engine in the Grand i10 keeps fuel costs the lowest of the three.
Creta vs Tucson — crossover or full SUV
The Creta crossover at AED 130 per day suits city driving with its compact footprint, while the Tucson SUV at AED 200 per day gives you a 2.0 L, 156 hp engine for highway runs to Abu Dhabi or Al Ain. Families of four staying in JVC or Al Barsha usually pick the Tucson for the rear legroom and higher seating position. If you only need a raised ride for speed bumps and mall car parks, the Creta is the lighter, cheaper choice.
Staria — the 9-seater for groups and families
The Staria seats nine across three rows at AED 300 per day and is our only minivan. A group of six to eight splits the rate below two sedans, and the sliding doors make hotel pickups in Deira or Bur Dubai noticeably easier. The 3.5 L engine handles a full load without strain on the climb to Hatta.
| Trip type | Model | Seats | Why it works | Rate per day |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Solo city commutes | Grand i10 | 5 | Cheapest rate, lowest fuel use | AED 55 |
| Couple with luggage | Accent | 5 | Boot space at economy price | AED 75 |
| Business driving | Elantra | 5 | Midsize comfort, 128 hp | AED 110 |
| Small family in the city | Creta | 5 | Crossover height, easy parking | AED 130 |
| Family highway trips | Tucson | 5 | 2.0 L power, rear legroom | AED 200 |
| Groups of six to nine | Staria | 9 | One car instead of two | AED 300 |
Before you book, count your passengers and full-size suitcases — the Grand i10 fits two soft bags, while the Staria takes a group plus luggage in one trip. If you are unsure which model matches your itinerary, send us a WhatsApp request with your dates and we will suggest the car that fits.
Documents and Eligibility for Renting a Hyundai
Before you can drive any of our six Hyundai models here, you need to meet the licence and age rules. The requirements differ for tourists and residents, so check which set applies to you before you send a booking request.
Licence rules for tourists in Dubai
Tourists rent with their passport, a UAE entry stamp or visa, and a valid home driving licence. If your licence is not printed in Latin script, you must carry an International Driving Permit (IDP) alongside it — the rental agreement and the local traffic police both expect to see it. Licence holders from India, Russia, China and Japan fall into this group, so an IDP is not optional for them. A licence in English or Arabic from the UK, the US, Europe or the GCC needs no IDP. Keep your passport and entry stamp with you while driving — police checks do happen on Sheikh Zayed Road and near the airports.
Residents — Emirates ID and UAE licence
Residents can take a Hyundai with just two documents: a valid Emirates ID and a UAE-issued driving licence. No IDP is needed for UAE licences, and we verify both documents during delivery at your hotel, apartment or office. If your UAE licence is newly issued and you are under 21, you cannot book with us yet — the minimum age applies to everyone, residents included. For those living in Deira, Bur Dubai or Mirdif, delivery to your home address is the same 24/7 service we run across the city.
Minimum age and young drivers
The minimum age across our entire Hyundai fleet is 21; the 25-year minimum applies only to luxury, sports and exotic classes, which sit on other pages of the site. At 22 you can take a Tucson or a Staria without any young-driver surcharge on standard models. The deposit is held on your card at pickup and released after you return the car — the release terms are set out in the rental agreement. Before you book, confirm that the named driver on the contract is the person who will actually drive, because the insurance covers only approved drivers.
Rental Terms, Deposit and What the Rate Covers
Before you drive off in a Hyundai, it helps to know exactly what the daily rate includes and where the extra charges sit. Our terms are the same across all six models — Grand i10 through Staria — so the numbers below apply whether you hire for a day or a month.
What the daily rate includes
Every Rent-Trip rate covers comprehensive insurance (CDW) and 250 km per day, with no office visit or paperwork beyond the documents you bring. The car is delivered to your address in Dubai, and the price you see in the quote is the price you pay before VAT.
CDW insurance: included in every rate across the Hyundai fleet, so a scrape or minor collision is covered under the agreement. Daily mileage: 250 km per day is included; additional kilometres are charged per the agreement. VAT 5%: shown separately in your quote, never hidden inside the daily figure. 24/7 delivery: included to any address in the city, including DXB and DWC airports.
Security deposit and its release
A security deposit is held on your card at pickup and released after the car is returned and inspected. The hold is released back to the same card, usually within a few days of return.
Use a credit card rather than a debit card for the deposit hold — credit cards keep your available cash untouched while the amount is reserved. If you plan a longer trip, check your card limit beforehand so the hold does not interfere with other spending.
VAT and additional fees
VAT 5% is added to the amount and itemised separately in your quote, so the daily rate and the tax are never blurred into one figure. Salik toll charges and any traffic fines are billed after the hire, based on the gate records and the fine notice.
The deposit amount, the excess on the insurance, the extra-kilometre price and the delivery fee are all set out in the agreement before you confirm. Ask for the full breakdown in writing when you send your booking request — that way the final figure matches the quote.
Hyundai Rental Prices by Class in Dubai
The six Hyundais on our page split into three clear price bands, from the AED 55/day city runabout to the AED 300/day nine-seater. Every rate covers the same essentials — CDW insurance and 250 km per day — so the only real decision is how much car your trip needs. Here is the full picture, model by model.
Daily rates across the Hyundai range
| Model | Class | Seats | Engine | Rate per day |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Grand i10 | Economy hatchback | 5 | 1.2 L, 87 hp | AED 55 |
| Accent | Economy sedan | 5 | 1.6 L, 123 hp | AED 75 |
| Elantra | Midsize sedan | 5 | 1.6 L, 128 hp | AED 110 |
| Creta | Crossover | 5 | 1.6 L, 123 hp | AED 130 |
| Tucson | SUV | 5 | 2.0 L, 156 hp | AED 200 |
| Staria | Minivan | 9 | 3.5 L, 272 hp | AED 300 |
What moves you up the price ladder
- Engine and body size: the 1.2 L Grand i10 suits solo commutes along Sheikh Zayed Road, while the 2.0 L Tucson handles highway runs to Abu Dhabi with more authority.
- Seating capacity: jump from 5 to 9 seats with the Staria — the only minivan in our Hyundai fleet and the top of the range at AED 300/day.
- Boot space: Accent and Elantra add a proper boot over the hatchback, useful for collecting guests from the airport or a week of shopping in Dubai Marina.
- Ride comfort: Creta and Tucson raise the seating position and cabin space, which families staying in JVC or Al Barsha tend to prefer.
How the numbers work out per week and month
Booking longer changes the arithmetic. A week in the Grand i10 starts at AED 330, and a month in the same car from AED 1155 — the daily equivalent drops well below the AED 55 day rate. The Tucson at AED 200/day works out to roughly AED 1400 for a week, which makes sense for visitors covering both the city and a Fujairah weekend. For a group of six to eight, the Staria at AED 300/day splits into less per person than two separate sedans, and you travel in one vehicle. VAT at 5% is added to whichever rate you choose, and extra kilometres beyond the daily 250 km are charged per the agreement.
Airport Delivery and Dubai Pickup for Your Hyundai Rental
With no rental counter or office to visit, every Hyundai on this page comes to you — we deliver the car to wherever you are in the city, at any hour. The handover takes about 15 minutes, and the paperwork is done on the spot, so you are driving within a quarter of an hour of meeting us.
Collecting Your Hyundai at DXB or DWC
We deliver to Dubai International Airport (DXB) Terminals 1 and 3 and to Al Maktoum International (DWC) around the clock, seven days a week. You land, clear arrivals, and message us on WhatsApp — a Rent-Trip driver meets you at the designated pickup point with the Hyundai you booked. For DWC, the advantage is sharper: the car meets you at arrivals and you skip the city entirely, heading straight for Abu Dhabi or the south of Dubai. If your flight is delayed, the delivery simply shifts with your new arrival time — there is no penalty for a late landing, and the exact holding arrangements are set out in the rental agreement.
Delivery to Marina, Downtown and Other Districts
Your Hyundai arrives at any address here — a hotel in Downtown, an apartment in Dubai Marina, an office in Business Bay, a villa in Mirdif or Al Barsha. We cover every district, from Deira and Bur Dubai in the older centre to JVC, Dubai Silicon Oasis and Al Quoz. Delivery times to JLT and Business Bay are agreed when booking. Fuel policy is set out in the rental agreement.
- Hotel delivery: the car is handed over at the valet or main entrance; we coordinate with the concierge if needed.
- Apartment and office delivery: we meet you at the building lobby or designated parking bay.
- Airport handover: DXB Terminals 1 and 3 and DWC — look for the Rent-Trip driver holding a name board.
- After-hours requests: delivery runs 24/7, so a 2 a.m. landing at DXB is met the same as a midday arrival.
For a stay in the UAE, out-of-city delivery to Abu Dhabi, Al Ain, Sharjah and the other emirates is set out in the rental agreement.
Driving Your Rented Hyundai Beyond Dubai — Salik, Fuel, Borders
Taking a Hyundai beyond the city is straightforward, but the rules differ once you pass the last toll gate. This section covers the toll system, fuel costs across the six models, and what happens when you head toward Abu Dhabi, Hatta or the border with Oman.
Salik toll gates and fuel costs
Salik is the barrier-free toll system here: AED 4 off-peak and AED 6 peak per gate, with charges applied automatically to the rental plate and billed after you return the car. The gates sit on Sheikh Zayed Road and other main arteries, so most commutes through Marina, Downtown or Business Bay cross at least one. On fuel, the engine size makes the real difference — a Grand i10 with its 1.2 L unit uses noticeably less petrol than a Tucson's 2.0 L on the same daily run, so city drivers save twice: a lower daily rate and fewer trips to the pump.
Weekend trips to Abu Dhabi, Hatta and beyond
Cross-emirate driving is set out in the rental agreement, so a weekend hire can cover Abu Dhabi, Al Ain, Hatta, Fujairah and Ras Al Khaimah. The drive to Abu Dhabi runs down the E11, while Hatta takes you inland toward the Hajar mountains — a paved, straightforward route with no off-road sections. What we cannot allow is desert driving or dune bashing in any car from our fleet: the agreement prohibits it, and desert excursions are done with a licensed tour operator, not in a self-drive Hyundai. For Oman, plan ahead — the border requires a separate permit and separate insurance, which you arrange before departure, not at the crossing.
What to check before you leave the city
- Fuel policy: the terms for refuelling are set out in the rental agreement.
- Salik balance: tolls are settled after return, so keep the plate number if you want to verify the statement.
- Documents for the border: carry your passport and licence even on domestic trips — police checks happen on the E11.
- Crossing into Oman: confirm the permit and insurance with us before you go; without them the border will turn you back.
Weekly and Monthly Hyundai Rental Options
For stays longer than a few days, the rate structure shifts: weekly bookings start at AED 330 and monthly from AED 1155, which drops the effective daily cost well below the single-day price. We offer these terms across the whole Hyundai fleet on this page, from the Grand i10 to the nine-seat Staria, with the same CDW coverage and 250 km daily mileage included.
Weekly rates from AED 330
A full week in a Grand i10 comes to AED 330 — that is seven days of city driving in the Marina, Downtown or Deira loop for less than the cost of two single-day bookings in a Tucson. The Accent at AED 75 per day works out to AED 525 for the week, while the Elantra, Creta, Tucson and Staria scale up from there. Because the UAE weekend runs Saturday and Sunday, a weekly booking neatly covers a Friday-to-Thursday work trip or a Saturday-to-Friday holiday without juggling extensions. If your plans shift mid-week, we adjust the return time on the request — just message us on WhatsApp or call before the agreed hour.
Monthly rates from AED 1155
Monthly rates start at AED 1155 for the Grand i10, which suits residents waiting for their own car to arrive or visitors on extended stays. The Accent runs higher, and the Tucson for a month lands well above that — the exact figure depends on the model and is set out in the rental agreement. For context, a month of daily Uber rides across Dubai typically exceeds this, which is why we see contractors and project staff on three-month contracts choose the monthly Hyundai option. The 250 km daily allowance rolls over per day, so a commute from JVC to Business Bay plus evening trips rarely hits the cap.
- Deposit: held on your card and released after return — the amount is stated in the rental agreement.
- Insurance: CDW comprehensive cover stays included at weekly and monthly rates, no change from daily bookings.
- Documents: residents show Emirates ID and UAE licence; tourists need passport, entry stamp and home licence, plus an IDP if the licence is not in Latin script.
- Delivery: the car reaches your Dubai address or the airport at no extra step — DXB Terminals 1 and 3 and Al Maktoum (DWC) are covered around the clock.
For a month-long hire, we recommend the Creta or Tucson if you plan weekend runs to Abu Dhabi or Al Ain — the larger engine holds speed comfortably on the E11, and the extra kilometres beyond 250 per day are billed per the agreement. Send a WhatsApp request with your dates and model, and the terms are agreed when booking.
