Nissan in our fleet: 25 cars
Nissan is a familiar sight on Dubai roads, from the inexpensive Micra to the Patrol, which many people see as the symbol of local driving. We have 25 cars of this brand. 16 of them come from a partner company with its own terms, and the other 9 follow our usual terms: no deposit, insurance included and 250 km per day. All prices below are as of October 2026, and the current price is on each car page.
We have a separate article on the Patrol, so here it is just one line in the bigger picture.
Prices: from the Micra to the GT-R
- The most affordable: the Nissan Micra and Versa at 109 AED a day, the Kicks 2025 at 115 AED, the Sunny at 119 AED. The lowest weekly and monthly prices belong to the Kicks SV 2020: 700 and 2,200 AED.
- The middle: saloons and crossovers at 130 to 200 AED a day: Sentra, Altima, Juke, Qashqai, Maxima, X-Trail.
- The big SUVs: the Pathfinder at 290 AED, the Patrol from 259 to 550 AED a day.
- The Nissan GT-R: 1,000 AED a day, 5,800 AED a week, 19,000 AED a month.
A week costs less than seven single days. For the Maxima it is 1,300 AED for the week instead of 1,400 AED at the daily price. The month is 4,400 AED, which is about 147 AED a day.

How to choose
- City and savings. Micra, Versa, Sunny, Kicks. Small, easy to park and economical. The Kicks sits higher and has a 360-degree camera, which gives a bit more confidence in traffic.
- A saloon for the highway. The Sentra and Altima suit trips to Abu Dhabi and back. The Maxima, with a 3.5-litre 300 hp V6 and a leather cabin, is for people who want a saloon with character without a premium price. For all-wheel drive there is the Altima AWD.
- A compact crossover. Juke, Qashqai, Rogue. A good match for a couple or a family of three.
- Seven seats. The X-Trail 2025 with all-wheel drive and the Xterra: a simple, tough body-on-frame SUV with low range and 210 mm of ground clearance. The Xterra suits a group and trips off the tarmac.
- Three rows and comfort. The Pathfinder 2025: 284 hp, ProPILOT adaptive cruise and a panoramic roof.
- The Patrol. The Titanium 2021 without a deposit is 259 AED a day, the Titanium 2025 on partner terms is 450 AED, and the Platinum V8 with a 5.6-litre 400 hp engine is 550 AED. The newer car does not always come with easier terms, so compare the car pages.
- Cargo and equipment. The Navara pickup with four-wheel drive and a load bed, 220 AED a day.
- A big group. The 13-seat Urvan: 300 AED a day, roughly 23 AED per person when full. It is about 2.3 metres tall, so avoid underground car parks with a height limit.
The Nissan GT-R: a supercar without supercar nerves
The GT-R has 565 hp, a 3.8-litre twin-turbo V6, all-wheel drive and a dual-clutch gearbox. The drive system keeps it composed in town and on the road to Hatta. It has four seats, but the rear ones are small, so it suits a couple above all. For six days or more the weekly price is the better deal: 5,800 AED instead of 7,000 AED for seven days at the daily rate. Some sports cars may have stricter terms, shown on the car page.
Rental terms
On our usual terms there is no deposit, insurance is included, the allowance is 250 km per day, and delivery and return in Dubai are free on rentals from 7 days, or 210 AED together for shorter ones. Partner cars: a 1,000 AED deposit, a minimum of 3 or 7 days, delivery at 80 AED each way, free from 30 days, and no driving to Oman. The driver must be 21 or older with at least one year of experience. Fines and Salik tolls are paid by the renter at actual cost.
