Our Bestune fleet in Dubai

Bestune is the passenger-car brand of FAW, the Chinese state carmaker that builds Toyotas and Volkswagens for its home market in joint ventures, and its Dubai grid is one model. Bintali rents the 2024 Bestune T77 in Dubai, in blue or white, delivered to your door free on any rental of three days or more. If you want to rent Bestune cars in Dubai, then, the question isn't which model but whether the T77 is your car at all. It's a compact front-drive crossover with a turbo engine, a screen-heavy cabin and a boot that's smaller than the body suggests. A Bestune T77 rental in Dubai suits one or two people commuting for a month. A family's luggage is a different car.

The T77 sits a size above the ZS and the Coolray

A five-seat compact crossover, 4.5 metres long, with a 1.5-litre turbo of around 160 hp driving the front wheels through an automatic. That puts it a size above the MG ZS and the Geely Coolray on our other grids and level with the Haval Jolion, and it has more pull than any of them on the merge onto Sheikh Zayed Road. Inside, the 2024 car has twin 12.3-inch screens, a 360-degree camera, a panoramic roof with a blind, and remote start on the key. The cabin is why people who try it book it again: it reads like a car a class up.

It isn't a soft-roader. Front-wheel drive and road tyres mean the Kite Beach car park is fine and the sand past it is not.

Who the T77 suits, and the boot

One or two people for a week or a month, with the luggage that implies. The boot is 342 litres with the seats up, which is two cabin bags and one medium case, and less than the Nissan Sunny sedan on our economy grid. Fold the rear seats and it swallows more, but then it's a two-seater. For a couple flying into DXB with two large cases each, that's the decision made against it before the cabin gets a look.

For the daily run from JVC or Silicon Oasis to Business Bay it's an easy car to live with. The 360-degree camera makes a tower car park simple, the seats are soft, and the turbo means you're not working the engine to keep up on Al Khail Road. The air conditioning is up to a July afternoon, and the remote start lets you cool the cabin from the lobby before you walk out.

When to rent Bestune cars in Dubai, and when the H6 wins

Book the T77 if the cabin and the engine matter more than the boot. If the boot matters more, the Haval H6 and the Exeed LX sit in the same class on the standard grid with more luggage space, and if you want the cheapest crossover we rent rather than the best-equipped, the MG ZS is on the MG grid. Anyone planning a track to Hatta needs four-wheel drive, which the T77 doesn't have and the Jetour T2 does.

The blue and the white T77 are the same car in the same year, so take whichever is free on your dates.

FAQ — Common Questions Answered.

Is Bestune a good brand to rent in Dubai, and who stands behind the T77?

It's a sound car to rent, and the risk is the badge rather than the car. The T77 is sold new in the UAE, so parts and servicing are handled here rather than shipped in, and ours goes in for a service between rentals rather than waiting for a fault. As a renter you don't carry the two things that make people hesitate to buy one, resale value and the size of the dealer network. What you're left with is a 2024 car with more equipment than a Nissan Kicks or a Haval Jolion at the same point on our grid.

Is the Bestune T77 a Toyota underneath?

No. FAW builds Toyotas and Volkswagens in joint ventures for the Chinese market, and none of that engineering crosses over to Bestune. The T77 sits on FAW's own platform with FAW's own 1.5-litre turbo and a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox, and the cabin, the screens and the software are Bestune's. Where that shows in daily use is the gearbox: the dual-clutch is smooth once moving and slightly hesitant in stop-start traffic on Al Khail Road, so leave a little more gap than you would in a Toyota with a conventional automatic.

Can I rent Bestune cars in Dubai with free delivery to my address?

Yes, on any rental of three days or more, and the useful part is what happens at the handover. Give us the tower name and which entrance to use, because the Business Bay and Marina towers often have a lobby on one side and a service road on the other, and that saves ten minutes of phone calls. We walk round the car with you and note every mark before you take the key, so do the same with us at the return. On a one- or two-day rental of a T77 a delivery fee can apply, and it's shown at checkout before you confirm.

Should I rent the Bestune T77 or the Haval Jolion?

The T77, unless you'd rather drive the badge you've seen more of on Dubai's roads. They're the same size, both front-wheel drive with a 1.5-litre turbo and a dual-clutch gearbox, and their boots are within a few litres of each other, so neither solves the luggage problem. The T77 has the stronger engine, around 160 hp against a little under 150 hp in the Jolion, and the bigger screens. The Jolion's case is that Haval is Great Wall's SUV brand and there are enough of them on Emirates Road that nobody looks twice, and if that matters to you it's on the Haval grid.

Does the T77 cool down quickly after sitting in the sun?

Quickly enough, and the colour you pick has a say in it. If both cars are free on your dates and yours will spend the day parked outside at the office or on the street, take the white T77 over the blue, because it soaks up less heat and the cabin starts a few degrees cooler when you get back in. Close the roof blind before you walk away, since the glass roof is the biggest single source of heat in this cabin, and point the nose away from the afternoon sun if the car park gives you the choice.
