Rent a Lexus LX 600 in Dubai: The Quiet Alternative to a G63
From car reviews and industry updates to maintenance advice, driving tips and buying recommendations, our blog brings together everything you need to stay connected to the world of cars.
The Lexus LX 600 is the large luxury SUV to rent in Dubai when you want comfort and quiet more than attention. At Hermas the LX 600 costs AED 1,099 a day, with comprehensive insurance and VAT included and no deposit. Compared with a G63 it is softer, calmer at highway speed and cheaper, and it carries a family to Abu Dhabi or Hatta without fuss.
Why rent a Lexus LX 600 instead of a G63?
Because it does the same job without asking for attention. The G63 is built to be noticed: the boxy shape, the side exhausts and the V8 sound turn heads at every hotel entrance in Dubai. The LX 600 is a big, beautifully finished SUV too, but it arrives quietly and leaves quietly.
That suits a lot of our customers: business travellers who do not want to look like they are on holiday, families who care more about a soft ride than a loud engine, and residents whose own car is in the garage for a week. For them the G63 is a lot of noise for a lot of money.
Lexus also has a long reputation for reliability, and that matters on a rental. In daily use the LX 600 lives up to it: nothing rattles, the air conditioning keeps up in summer, and the car does what you ask without drama.
Where the LX 600 works best: Sheikh Zayed Road, Abu Dhabi and Hatta
Sheikh Zayed Road is where the cabin earns its price. In the LX 600 wind and road noise stay low at a steady cruise, the seats are soft and supportive, and a phone call through the car’s speakers sounds like a conversation, not a shout.
A family day trip to Abu Dhabi is the classic use. The drive is motorway all the way, so a quiet cabin and a smooth ride matter more than power or looks. The air conditioning reaches the back of the cabin too, which counts from June to September, when afternoons pass 40 °C.
Hatta is the other favourite: a paved mountain road into the Hajar Mountains, with the dam, the kayaks and the heritage village at the end. The LX 600 is calm and stable on the climbs and the bends. Keep it on the asphalt: the rental agreement does not cover dune bashing or driving off paved roads, and that applies to the LX 600 as much as to any other car.
How much does it cost to rent a Lexus LX 600 in Dubai?
The Lexus LX 600 costs AED 1,099 a day at Hermas, with comprehensive insurance and VAT included and no security deposit. This is how it sits next to the two cars people usually compare it with.
- Lexus LX 600 — AED 1,099 a day. The calm, comfortable choice for long motorway days and family trips.
- Nissan Patrol Full Platinum 2025 — AED 599 a day. The closest rival to the LX, a little cheaper and very well equipped in Full Platinum form.
- Mercedes G63 — from AED 1,100 a day. The loud, iconic choice for people who want to be seen.
Rentals of several days or more cost less per day, and a monthly rate can be quoted on request.
Lexus LX 600 or Nissan Patrol: which should you book?
Book the Patrol if price matters most, and the LX 600 if the cabin matters most. Both are large, comfortable SUVs that are very popular in the UAE, and both are far quieter than a G63. The Patrol Full Platinum saves you AED 116 a day and still feels special inside.
The LX 600 earns the extra money with a finer interior, softer seats, a calmer ride over expansion joints and the Lexus badge, which reads as discreet luxury rather than a statement.
The G63 is a different kind of car. It costs more, it is louder, and everyone looks at it. If that is what you want, it is the right car. If you want to arrive relaxed, the Lexus is the better rental.
| Car | Price a day | Cabin and ride | Attention | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Lexus LX 600 | AED 1,099 | Very quiet, soft and smooth | Low-key luxury | Families, business trips and long motorway days |
| Nissan Patrol Full Platinum 2025 | AED 599 | Quiet and comfortable | A familiar sight on UAE roads | The best value in a large luxury SUV |
| Mercedes G63 | From AED 1,100 | Firm and loud, by design | Turns every head | Hotel arrivals, photos and being seen |

Frequently asked questions
Is the Lexus LX 600 quieter than a G63?
Yes, noticeably. The LX 600 is tuned for a soft ride and a hushed cabin, while the G63 is built to sound and feel dramatic, with a loud V8 and a firmer ride. If quiet comfort is the priority, the LX 600 is the easier car to live with for a week.
Can I drive the rented LX 600 to Hatta or Abu Dhabi?
Yes. Both trips are on paved roads and suit the LX 600 well: the road to Hatta is asphalt all the way into the mountains, and the drive to Abu Dhabi is motorway from start to finish. The rental does not cover dune bashing or any driving off the asphalt, so keep to the road.
Do you need a deposit to rent a Lexus LX 600 in Dubai?
No. Hermas takes no security deposit on the LX 600 or on any other car, for any rental length, and nothing is blocked on your card. The daily price of AED 1,099 already includes comprehensive insurance and VAT. Salik tolls and any fines are billed at cost after you return the car.
Is the Nissan Patrol a good alternative to the LX 600?
Yes, it is the closest alternative and costs AED 799 a day, AED 116 less than the Lexus. It is large, comfortable and quiet, and the Full Platinum version is very well equipped. Pick the LX 600 if you want the finer interior and the calmest ride, and the Patrol if you want the best value.
