Monthly & Weekly Car Rental in Dubai — Long-Term Deals

With DriveX, monthly rental plans start from AED 2,199/month, giving you better value, more flexibility, and access to a wide fleet of economy cars, sedans, SUVs, 7-seaters, business cars, and luxury vehicles.
Whether you are a new expat waiting for your own car, a company that needs project vehicles, a family staying in Dubai for several weeks, or a visitor who wants reliable transport, DriveX offers flexible weekly and monthly car rental deals across Dubai.
Cost Comparison
Daily vs Weekly vs Monthly Car Rental in Dubai
A daily rental may be useful for short trips, but if you keep the car for several weeks, the total cost can become much higher. For example, a car rented at AED 149/day can cost around AED 4,470 for 30 days. A monthly rental plan can start from around AED 2,199/month, giving you significant savings.
| Rental Type | Best For | Typical Duration | Value |
|---|---|---|---|
| Daily Rental | Short visits and quick trips | 1–3 days | Convenient but higher daily cost |
| Weekly Rental | Business trips and short stays | 7+ days | Better than daily for one week or more |
| Monthly Rental | Expats, families, companies, long stays | 30+ days | Best value for long-term use |
