As the UAE gears up for the Back-to-School season, families, educators, and working professionals are realigning their routines - and their transportation needs. With growing demand for flexibility and cost-effective mobility, long-term car rentals are taking center stage. At SelfDrive, we're making this decision easier (and smarter) with exclusive Back-2-School offers across some of the most in-demand car models - available for flexible durations from 1 to 12 months. Whether you need a car for just the first term or for the entire academic year, our plans are built to fit your schedule. All bookings are available directly through our app - but only for a limited time.
Why Long-Term Rentals Are Trending in the UAE
Rising fuel costs, traffic congestion, and a growing population mean that mobility needs in cities like Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and Sharjah are rapidly changing. For parents juggling school runs and work, or teachers commuting from satellite towns, a long-term rental offers the best of both worlds—personal convenience and financial predictability.
Whether you're a parent managing multiple drop-offs or a teacher looking for a reliable ride, renting a car for 1–12 months gives you:
- Fixed monthly costs (no surprises)
- Full maintenance and insurance coverage
- Zero long-term commitments
- No bank loans or credit checks
Back-to-School Eligibility Guidelines
- This offer is exclusively for first-time SelfDrive customers. If you're new to us, you can lock in a flat rate by booking your car in advance for a set duration—3, 6, or even 12 months.
- Think of it as a Price-Lock Guarantee: you get the best rate upfront, and it stays that way throughout your rental.
- Plans changed? No problem. You’re free to return the car early—no penalties, no extra charges, just flexibility.
