Rent a Nissan in Dubai: Models, Prices, and Handover Tips
Our fleet of 8 Nissan models starts at AED 60 per day, from the Micra to the GT-R. We deliver anywhere in Dubai, including airports, with insurance included.
Renting a Nissan for Your Dubai Trip
Choosing the right Nissan starts with how many people you carry and where you plan to drive. Our fleet spans 8 models from the AED 60/day Micra to the AED 1600/day GT-R, so there is a match for solo travellers, families and performance drivers alike.
Economy picks: Micra vs Sunny
The Micra at AED 60/day and the Sunny at AED 65/day are the most budget-friendly Nissans in our range, both running on 1.6 L petrol engines. The Micra is a 5-seat hatchback with 106 hp and a shorter body, which makes it noticeably easier to slot into tight parking bays around Dubai Marina and JLT. The Sunny, a 5-seat sedan with 118 hp, feels more settled at highway speeds on Sheikh Zayed Road and suits commuters covering longer daily distances. For solo city driving, the hatchback Micra is easier to park in Marina; Sunny suits highway commutes.
Family and group options: Patrol and X-Trail
The Patrol seats 7 at AED 700/day, while the X-Trail seats 5 at AED 230/day. The Patrol carries a 5.6 L engine with 400 hp and offers three rows of seating, so a family of six fits only the Patrol — no other model we rent has 7 seats. The X-Trail, with a 2.5 L engine and 181 hp, offers SUV ride height and boot space for a family of four or five without the fuel appetite of the bigger car. A family of six fits only the Patrol — no other Nissan on this page has 7 seats.
Enthusiast choice: Nissan GT-R
The GT-R, a 4-seat sports coupe with 570 hp from a 3.8 L twin-turbo engine, rents at AED 1600/day and requires the driver to be at least 25. This is the only model in our Nissan range with a 4-seat layout, and its launch feel on the open stretches toward Abu Dhabi is a different experience from the rest of the lineup. Availability is set out in the rental agreement, so check with us when booking.
Nissan Rental Dubai Prices Daily Weekly Monthly
Daily Nissan hire prices run from AED 60 for the Micra economy hatchback to AED 1600 for the GT-R sports coupe. Between those ends sit the Sunny, Kicks, Altima, X-Trail, X-Terra and Patrol, each priced by class, engine size and seat count. VAT of 5% is shown separately on top of every rate.
Daily rates across the lineup
| Model | Class | Seats | Engine | Power | AED per day |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Micra | Economy, Hatchback | 5 | 1.6 L | 106 hp | AED 60 |
| Sunny | Economy, Sedan | 5 | 1.6 L | 118 hp | AED 65 |
| Altima | Sedan | 5 | 2.5 L | 188 hp | AED 150 |
| Kicks | Crossover | 5 | 1.6 L | 118 hp | AED 120 |
| X-Trail | SUV | 5 | 2.5 L | 181 hp | AED 230 |
| X-Terra | SUV | 5 | 2.5 L | 166 hp | AED 280 |
| Patrol | Luxury SUV | 7 | 5.6 L | 400 hp | AED 700 |

Weekly and monthly Nissan hire
Weekly rates start from AED 360 on the Micra, and monthly from AED 1260. The Patrol works out more attractive by the week too: AED 700 per day compounds fast if you need seven seats for a full family stay. We see plenty of interest in the Sunny and Altima — visitors on long assignments prefer a quiet sedan with a 2.5 L engine for motorway runs to Abu Dhabi. Compare the per-day cost against your actual driving days before choosing — which rate period suits your dates is set out in the rental agreement. Long-term renters also avoid daily rate spikes when short bookings across the city tighten. Ask us on WhatsApp which rate period fits your dates — we confirm availability manually and adjust the term to your flight times.
How Our Nissan Car Rental in Dubai Works
We run a delivery-only model: there is no rental counter, no office to visit, and no queue. You book a Nissan from the 8-car lineup, and we bring the car to wherever you are — a hotel in Downtown, an apartment in Marina, or the arrivals level at the airport.
24/7 Delivery Across Dubai
Your Nissan arrives at any hour, any day of the week, anywhere in the city. We meet you at Dubai International Airport (DXB) Terminals 1 and 3 and at Al Maktoum International (DWC) with the keys in hand and the paperwork ready. Landing at 2 AM after a late flight? Your car is waiting at arrivals — no taxi queue, no waiting for a ride-share driver who cannot find the terminal.
- Delivery point: your hotel, apartment, office, or the airport curb — we come to you.
- Timing: we coordinate delivery to match your landing time or your morning schedule.
- Handover: we check the car together, note any existing marks, and go through the agreement on the spot.
For out-of-town starts, we can also arrange delivery to Abu Dhabi or Sharjah — the terms are set out in the rental agreement.
Booking by WhatsApp or Phone
Booking is a request, not an online checkout. You message us on WhatsApp or call, tell us the dates, the model, and the delivery address, and we confirm availability manually. This means a real person checks the fleet and your requirements before we commit a car.
- Request details: dates, pick-up time, delivery location, and your preferred model from Micra to GT-R.
- Confirmation: we reply with the exact car, the daily rate, and the delivery window.
- Extras: any additional requests are set out in the rental agreement — mention them when you book, and we confirm what is possible before you arrive.
Most requests are confirmed within a few hours, and we build the delivery schedule around your flight or check-in time rather than asking you to fit ours.
Nissan Hire Compared Seats Power and Fuel
All eight Nissans in our fleet run on petrol, with seating from 4 to 7 places and engines ranging from a 1.6-litre economy unit to the GT-R's 3.8-litre twin-turbo. The choice comes down to how many people you carry, how far you plan to drive, and whether you want economy or performance.

Matching the engine to your route
The 1.6-litre pair — Micra and Sunny — handles city streets, Marina parking and the daily commute along Sheikh Zayed Road without strain. Step up to a 2.5-litre model like the Altima or X-Trail if your plan includes an Abu Dhabi round trip or a run to Fujairah on the Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Road; the extra torque makes sustained highway cruising more relaxed, and the fuel gauge moves slower at speed.
The Patrol's 5.6-litre V8 and the GT-R's 3.8-litre unit are about presence and pace rather than economy. Both drink more at the pump, and the GT-R's low-profile tyres suit smooth asphalt, not rough side roads. For the GT-R, keep it to city showcases and the occasional early-morning run to Al Ain — that is where it earns its rate.
Power-to-seats rule: match the engine to passenger load first — a 1.6-litre Sunny with five adults and luggage feels sluggish on the motorway, while a 400 hp Patrol for two people in the city is wasted money. Consider the 2.5-litre Altima as the middle ground: five seats, 188 hp, and enough boot space for four suitcases — the sensible pick for a family of four on a two-week stay.
Where You Can Drive a Rental Nissan in Dubai
A Nissan from us is yours to drive across the UAE, not just within city limits. The main restriction is simple: stay on paved roads — desert and off-road driving are prohibited by the rental agreement. Everything else, from daily commutes on Sheikh Zayed Road to weekend trips to neighbouring emirates, is allowed.
Within Dubai and Out of Town
You can drive your Nissan anywhere in the UAE — the city itself, Abu Dhabi, Al Ain, Hatta, Fujairah, Ras Al Khaimah and Sharjah are all permitted destinations. Each emirate is reachable by well-maintained highways. Hatta, the emirate's eastern exclave, is roughly 90 minutes from the city centre — a popular weekend escape. If you plan to cross into Oman, note that it requires a separate permit and separate insurance arranged in advance; we cannot authorise that crossing on a standard agreement.
Salik Tolls and Parking
The city uses Salik, a barrier-free toll system that charges your plate automatically as you pass under a gate. Each gate costs AED 4 off-peak and AED 6 during peak hours, and how the charge is settled is set out in the rental agreement. A drive from Dubai Marina to Downtown Dubai along Sheikh Zayed Road can pass two gates, so factor AED 8–12 into a typical cross-city trip. Parking in malls and public lots is generally paid; most accept card at the barrier.
What's Prohibited: No Off-Road
Desert driving, dune bashing and any off-road use are strictly prohibited by the agreement. The fine print exists because our Nissans are road vehicles with standard tyres and no desert-protection equipment — the conditions of use are set out in the rental agreement. For desert excursions, book with a licensed tour operator who runs dedicated 4x4s on approved routes. Your Nissan is for tarmac: city streets, highways and the paved mountain roads around Hatta — nothing beyond that.
Documents and Requirements for Nissan Hire
Getting your Nissan rental in Dubai comes down to three things: the right documents, meeting the age limit, and having a card for the deposit. The rules differ slightly for residents and tourists.
Tourists: licence and IDP rules
Tourists hiring a Nissan need a passport, a valid entry stamp or visa, and a full home driving licence. If your licence is not printed in Latin script — for example, in Arabic, Chinese, Japanese or Cyrillic — you must also carry an International Driving Permit alongside it. Licence holders from the UK, the US, most of Europe, Australia and the Gulf states can drive directly on their home licence without an IDP. Any further conditions on your passport or entry stamp are set out in the rental agreement.
Residents and age limits
- Emirates ID and UAE licence: residents must show both when the car is delivered.
- Minimum age 21: applies to the Micra, Sunny, Altima, Kicks, X-Trail and X-Terra.
- Age 25 for luxury and sports: the Patrol and the GT-R require the main driver to be at least 25 years old.
- Under-25 drivers: can still rent the Sunny or Altima without a young-driver surcharge — those models fall outside the luxury and sports classes.
Under-25s should simply pick from the economy, sedan or crossover segment. The age cut-off at 25 is set by our insurer, not by us, and it applies to both residents and tourists. A security deposit is held on the main driver's card at delivery and released after the car is returned; the deposit amount is agreed when booking.
What's Included in Every Nissan Rental
Every Nissan rental from Rent-Trip comes with comprehensive CDW insurance and 250 km per day included in the quoted price. The rate you see for each model — from the Micra at AED 60 per day to the GT-R at AED 1600 per day — already covers basic protection and the daily mileage allowance. What changes between bookings is how you drive, and that is where the agreement matters.
Insurance and mileage
- Comprehensive CDW insurance: included in every Nissan booking at no extra cost.
- 250 km per day: included across the whole fleet; a Dubai Marina to Abu Dhabi round trip is roughly 280 km, so plan for a few extra kilometres on that run.
- Extra kilometres: charged per the agreement at a rate set out before you confirm.
- Excess amount: set out in the rental agreement.
For a week here, the included mileage gives you 1750 km, which covers city driving and a weekend run out of town without going over. If your route is mostly Sheikh Zayed Road between Marina and Downtown, you will barely touch the allowance. Long-distance drivers should estimate their Abu Dhabi or Ras Al Khaimah trips before booking — a Nissan Sunny at AED 65 per day with a few extra kilometres still undercuts most alternatives.
Deposit and VAT
A security deposit is held on your card at pickup and released after the booking is completed and the car is inspected. The deposit amount depends on the model class and is set out in the rental agreement — we confirm it when you send your booking request. VAT at 5% is shown separately on the final invoice, meaning the daily rate you see is not the final total. For a Nissan Altima at AED 150 per day for a week, the VAT adds AED 52.50 to the base price of AED 1050. Factor that into your budget when planning your rental.
