New arrivals to the UAE working on short-term contracts are helping to shape the local car rental and leasing market.
Hertz UAE has just launched a car rental plan for the ever popular and reliable Toyota Corolla which works out at Dhs50 per day, and the company, part of the Al Futtaim Group, is planning more good news for those unable to commit to buying cars.
“We’ve put this offer together for people who have just arrived in the UAE and are looking for an easy and reliable mode of transportation,” said Bob Farrow, General Manager of Hertz UAE. “This way we are meeting the needs of people who may be working in the country on a short-term contract and for whom buying a car just doesn’t make sense, by giving them the freedom of having their own car for as long as they need it.”
“We’re also looking to introduce other similar deals which allow you drive off in a brand new car without worrying about a thing, because we take care of the registration, insurance and all the other formalities.”
The offer applies to those taking out the 2006 Toyota Corolla 1.3L model for a minimum lease of 30 days. They pay just Dhs.1,499 per month for a fully insured vehicle which has undergone a 40-point quality check-up. They also get a 24-hour back up and support service.
The deal is available at any of Hertz UAE’s 13 car rental branches in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Fujairah and Ras Al Khaimah. Customers can find out more by calling toll-free (800) 43789.
