Sedan Rental in Dubai

Sedan rental in Dubai with Rent-Trip gives you a choice of 10 saloon models, from the Kia Cerato at AED 95 per day to the fully electric BYD Seal at AED 250 per day. Every car is delivered to your location anywhere in Dubai 24/7, including Dubai International (DXB) and Al Maktoum (DWC) airports, with comprehensive insurance already included in the price.

How to Choose a Sedan Rental in Dubai

The right sedan for your stay depends on how you plan to use it — solo commuting along Sheikh Zayed Road, weekend drives to Abu Dhabi, or carrying clients between meetings in Business Bay. We group our fleet of 10 sedans into practical categories so you can match the car to the trip, not the other way around.

Economy Sedans for Solo Travellers

Kia Cerato and Geely Emgrand are our entry-level choices, priced at AED 95 and AED 100 per day respectively. Both are 5-seat petrol sedans with 1.6 L and 1.5 L engines delivering 128 hp and 122 hp — adequate for city cruising and short hops to Deira or Karama. For a solo traveller who mostly needs a reliable car between hotel and meetings, these keep the daily cost low while still giving you air conditioning that copes with the summer heat here. If you plan to spend most of your trip inside the city, the Cerato is a cost-effective way to get around without sacrificing boot space for a suitcase.

Mid-Size Sedans for Couples

• Hyundai Elantra: 1.6 L, 128 hp, AED 110 per day — a balanced ride with a modern cabin for two.
• Toyota Corolla: 1.6 L, 121 hp, AED 120 per day — a dependable choice for everyday driving.
• Honda Civic: 1.5 L, 180 hp, AED 140 per day — noticeably quicker, suited for drivers who enjoy a responsive feel.

These three give couples more rear legroom and a quieter cabin than the economy pair, which matters on longer cruises down to Dubai Marina or JLT. The Civic’s extra power is worth the AED 20 premium over the Corolla if you plan regular trips on Sheikh Zayed Road, where swift acceleration helps you merge confidently. All three return sensible fuel consumption for stop-start city traffic, keeping your running costs predictable.

Full-Size Sedans for Business Travel

Nissan Altima, Honda Accord, Volkswagen Passat and Toyota Camry form our full-size tier, from AED 150 to AED 170 per day. Engines range from 1.5 L in the Accord to 2.0 L in the Passat, with power between 188 hp and 220 hp across the petrol line-up. These cars suit business travellers who carry colleagues or clients and want a more substantial presence when pulling up in Downtown or Business Bay. Rear passengers get proper legroom, and the larger boot offers generous space for luggage. The Camry and Altima, both with 2.5 L engines, cruise comfortably on highway runs if you regularly drive to Abu Dhabi.

BYD Seal Electric Option

• BYD Seal: electric, 82 kWh battery, 313 hp, AED 250 per day.

The Seal is our only zero-emission sedan. With 313 hp from its electric motor, it delivers strong acceleration, and the 82 kWh battery suits daily driving across the city’s urban sprawl. Charging is straightforward — most hotels and malls in Dubai Marina, Downtown and Al Barsha have public chargers. Choose it if you want an economical drive and a quieter, smoother ride than any petrol sedan here. Note that the higher daily rate reflects the car’s purchase price, not a premium we add arbitrarily — for a week-long stay the Seal still makes sense if charging points are convenient to where you are staying.

Sedan Rental Prices in Dubai by Model

We publish the full price list for our sedan fleet, so you know the daily, weekly and monthly rate before you send a booking request. All ten models are 5-seat automatic sedans, and every rate already includes comprehensive CDW insurance and 250 km per day.

Daily Sedan Rental Prices in Dubai: from AED 95 to AED 250

The economy pair — Kia Cerato and Geely Emgrand — suits city commutes along Sheikh Zayed Road, while the BYD Seal adds 313 hp and zero tailpipe emissions. Between them sit petrol sedans from 121 hp to 220 hp, so the spread covers short hops and longer Gulf road trips.

Weekly and Monthly Sedan Rental in Dubai

Weekly rates start from AED 570, and monthly hire starts from AED 1,995. VAT at 5% is added separately on top of the quoted rate, and the security deposit is set out in the rental agreement rather than hidden in the daily price. Mileage and any extra charges are also set out in the rental agreement, so you know the full conditions before you confirm a booking.

What Your Sedan Rental Price Includes

The rate you see on our sedan page is the starting point — here is exactly what sits inside that price and what gets added on top.

Comprehensive Insurance (CDW) Is Included in Every Rental

Every sedan in our fleet, from the Kia Cerato at AED 95 per day to the BYD Seal at AED 250, comes with comprehensive insurance (CDW) already built into the quoted rate. You do not pay an extra daily fee at pickup or add a separate policy to the booking — the cover is part of the price you agree to when you confirm the car. Before you drive off, ask us to walk you through the terms of the cover — knowing them in advance prevents an unpleasant surprise at the return stage.

250 km per Day Included, Extra Kilometres Charged

Each day of your sedan rental includes 250 km of driving at no additional cost — enough for the drive from Dubai Marina to Abu Dhabi Corniche and back, roughly 220 km round trip. If you exceed the daily allowance, extra kilometres are charged at the rate stated in the rental agreement. Our advice: if you plan a long trip, tell us when you book — we can suggest a model that suits your route, rather than facing overage charges later.

Security Deposit Held on Card and Released After Rental

A security deposit is held on your credit card at pickup and released after the car is returned undamaged and on time. The hold does not leave your account as a charge — it is an authorisation that sits as pending until the vehicle is checked back in. For sedans in our fleet the deposit amount is set out in the rental agreement and varies by model. The release terms are agreed when booking, so ask us for the details before you confirm the rental.

VAT 5% Shown Separately — No Hidden Fees

The UAE charges VAT at 5%, and we show it as a separate line on your quotation rather than burying it inside the daily rate. When you see a sedan advertised at AED 120 per day, the daily rate itself is AED 120 — the 5% VAT is added on top of the total rental amount, not per day in a way that inflates the advertised figure. What you will not find in our pricing are surprise charges for cleaning or paperwork. Ask for a written breakdown before you confirm the booking — the full cost is set out in the rental agreement, with nothing left to be invented at the counter.

Documents and Driver Requirements for Sedan Rental in Dubai

Renting a sedan here is straightforward once you know which documents to bring — the requirements differ for tourists and UAE residents, and the minimum driver age starts at 21.

Minimum Driver Age and Licence Rules

Minimum age 21: applies to all sedan classes on our fleet, from the Kia Cerato to the Toyota Camry. Age 25 for luxury, sports and exotic classes: required for these vehicles — none of the ten sedans on this page fall into that bracket. Licence language: if your home licence is not printed in Latin script, the additional requirements are set out in the rental agreement.

Documents for Tourists Renting in Dubai

Tourists need three items: a valid passport with a UAE entry stamp or visa, a full driving licence from your home country, and an International Driving Permit if that licence uses non-Latin characters. We check the documents when we deliver the car to you — the delivery process is agreed when booking.

Documents for UAE Residents

Residents need just two documents: a valid Emirates ID and a UAE driving licence. For residents under 21, sedan hire is not available — the minimum age applies to everyone regardless of residency status.

Free Delivery of Your Dubai Sedan Rental

Driving in Dubai is straightforward, but getting to a rental office first is not — so we deliver the car to you. Sedan rental in Dubai means the car comes to your location, and the paperwork is handled on the spot.

24/7 Delivery to Your Hotel, Apartment or Office

• Hotel delivery: we bring the sedan to your hotel — from Downtown Dubai to Dubai Marina — and hand over the keys with a full walkthrough of the car.
• Apartment and office delivery: for longer stays, we deliver to residential towers and workplaces across Dubai, including areas like JLT, Business Bay, Al Barsha and JVC, or on Sheikh Zayed Road.
• No office visit: there is no rental counter to reach; the car comes to you, saving you the trip across the city.
• Timing flexibility: delivery is arranged around your flight arrival, meeting schedule or weekend plans — agreed when booking.

Airport Pickup at DXB Terminals 1 and 3 or DWC

We deliver to Dubai International (DXB) Terminals 1 and 3, and to Al Maktoum International (DWC) in Dubai South, so the car is ready when you land. This is especially useful for late-night flights. For departures, we collect the car at the same terminal — you drop the keys and head to check-in.

Booking by WhatsApp or Phone — a Request, Not a Checkout

Reserving a sedan is a message, not an online payment flow. You contact us on WhatsApp or by phone, tell us the dates, the model you want, and the delivery point in Dubai. We confirm availability and send the rental agreement for review before anything is signed. This way you can ask about any extras or a different pickup time before committing — the terms are set out in the rental agreement.

Where You Can Drive a Rented Sedan From Dubai

A sedan from Rent-Trip is yours for the whole term, so the practical question is where the agreement lets you take it. The city sits on the coast with flat desert highways in every direction, and the main permitted destinations are the neighbouring emirates plus a few inland spots. We hand over the car with a full explanation of the boundaries, and the simple version is that the permitted areas are set out in the rental agreement.

Out-of-town trips: Abu Dhabi, Al Ain, Hatta, Fujairah, RAK, Sharjah

• Abu Dhabi: about 140 km down the E11 from Dubai, roughly 90 minutes in a Kia Cerato or Toyota Corolla.
• Al Ain: the garden city on the Omani border, around 150 km east — a comfortable run for a mid-size sedan like the Hyundai Elantra or Honda Civic.
• Hatta: an inland enclave among the Hajar foothills, around 130 km from Dubai; the route is set out in the rental agreement.
• Fujairah: on the east coast, around 200 km from Dubai; the route is set out in the rental agreement.
• Ras Al Khaimah and Sharjah: shorter trips of 90 km and 30 km respectively; both straightforward on the E311 or E11.
• Fuel and mileage: the fuel policy and the mileage allowance are agreed when booking.

Salik toll gates — AED 4 off-peak, AED 6 peak

The barrier-free toll system, Salik, applies on Sheikh Zayed Road and other main arteries across Dubai. Off-peak hours cost AED 4 per gate; peak hours — typically weekday rush times — cost AED 6. Tolls are billed to the renter, and the exact settlement terms are set out in the rental agreement. A day of cross-town driving through four or five gates adds roughly AED 20–30 to your trip, so factor that into a cash budget if you plan to move around a lot.

Oman needs a separate permit; off-road is prohibited

Crossing into Oman — for example, from Al Ain to Muscat — is not covered by a standard UAE rental agreement. It requires a separate permit and separate insurance arranged in advance. What is always off the table is off-road or desert driving: the agreement prohibits it, and dune bashing is a tour-operator activity, not something you do in a hire sedan. On the positive side, the UAE weekend is Saturday and Sunday, and Friday is a working day — so a long weekend gives you time for a trip to Abu Dhabi or Fujairah.

Final Thoughts on Renting a Sedan in Dubai

Booking a sedan rental in Dubai comes down to the class that fits your passenger count and luggage, then confirming the terms that affect the final price. Our fleet of ten sedans includes economy models and full-size options for city driving and trips out of town. The daily rate, engine size and boot space are the main points to compare, and the paperwork is straightforward once you know what to bring.

• Rate and class: economy sedans start at AED 95 per day, full-size models reach AED 250 — pick the class that fits your passenger count and luggage, not just the lowest number.
• Mileage and fuel: 250 km per day are included; extra kilometres are charged per the agreement — plan a Fujairah round trip (about 250 km total) knowing you will stay inside the limit.
• Insurance and deposit: comprehensive CDW is included in the price; a security deposit is held on your card and released after the hire — the release terms are set out in the rental agreement.
• Documents: residents need an Emirates ID and UAE licence; tourists need a passport, entry stamp, home licence and an IDP if the licence is not in Latin script — the full list is agreed when booking.
• Delivery: we bring the car to your hotel, apartment or office anywhere in the city 24/7, including DXB Terminals 1 and 3 and Al Maktoum — there is no counter to visit.

Before you confirm, add the 5% VAT to the quoted daily rate and remember that Salik toll gates are charged to the renter at AED 4 off-peak and AED 6 peak. For a first hire here, the Toyota Corolla or Honda Civic suits city driving and short trips out of town; if you want zero emissions, the BYD Seal is the electric option in this lineup — its charging details are set out in the rental agreement. Send us a request on WhatsApp or by phone with your dates and delivery point — we will confirm availability and bring the car to you anywhere in the city.
