"How much is it to rent a car in Dubai?" is one of the most common questions we hear. The honest answer: it depends on the car, the season and how long you rent. This guide explains what drives the price, so you can find a good deal and avoid surprises.
How much is car rental in Dubai per day?
Small economy cars are the cheapest to rent by the day, mid-size cars and SUVs cost more, and luxury, sports and supercars are priced for special occasions. Prices change with demand: the cooler winter months and holidays are usually busier than summer. On ClicknDrive every car shows its live daily price, and the Daily Car Rental page lists cars from the lowest price.
Is it cheaper to rent by the week or month?
Yes — usually much cheaper per day. Rental companies reward longer rentals, so a weekly price is often close to five or six daily prices, and a monthly rental is the lowest cost per day of all. Every car on ClicknDrive shows its daily, weekly and monthly price side by side.
What extra costs should I check?
- Kilometres: many cars include a daily limit and charge for extra kilometres; others have unlimited kilometres.
- Security deposit: some companies rent without a deposit, while others take a refundable deposit — when it is returned depends on the company's policy.
- Salik and Darb tolls, and any traffic fines, are usually charged after the rental.
- Fuel: you normally return the car with the same fuel level.
- Delivery: some companies deliver for free, others charge a fee.
- Extra driver, child seats or extra insurance cover, if you need them.
How can I get the best price?
- Compare several cars and companies before you decide.
- Rent for a week or a month if your plans allow it.
- Look for offers: discounted cars show the normal price crossed out.
- Choose an economy or compact car if you mainly drive in the city.
- Ask the company for the total price, including delivery and any extras.
Do I pay online?
No. On ClicknDrive there is no online payment and no booking fee. You contact the rental company directly by WhatsApp or phone and pay the company when you collect the car.
