Best SUV to rent in Dubai for a week: a practical 2026 guide
A week in Dubai usually means airport runs, long drives on Sheikh Zayed Road, a day in Abu Dhabi or Hatta, and a lot of air conditioning. An SUV is the most comfortable choice: high seating, big boot, and room for five adults. Here is what actually matters when you pick one for seven days, and what we offer at DRIVERS.
What makes a good SUV for a week in Dubai
- Strong air conditioning and tinted windows: summer temperatures often pass 40 °C.
- Room for luggage: a family of four with suitcases needs a real boot, not a crossover.
- Unlimited mileage: a return trip to Abu Dhabi alone is about 280 km.
- A clear deposit amount and a clear refund delay, written in the contract.
- Delivery to your hotel or to DXB, so you do not lose an hour at a rental desk.
Our pick: the Jetour T2 Defender Pack
- DRIVERS rents only one model, the black Jetour T2 Defender Pack (2025), a 5-seat off-road styled SUV with a starlight roof.
- You choose the interior: HERMÈS (orange leather), SHEMS (sun-yellow leather) or TIFFANY (Tiffany-blue leather).
- Price for a week: 2,499 AED for 7 days, unlimited kilometres, delivery and collection anywhere in Dubai or at DXB included.
- Refundable security deposit: 2,000 AED, returned within 20 days after the car comes back, minus any fines or Salik tolls.
Costs to check before you book any rental
- Salik (Dubai road tolls): usually re-billed at cost after the rental.
- Fuel policy: at DRIVERS the car is returned with the same fuel level.
- Insurance excess: ask how much you pay in case of damage. Ours is covered by the deposit.
- Cancellation: free at DRIVERS up to 10 days before pick-up.
