Dubai isn’t just a place you visit, it’s a place you perform in. And sometimes, that performance happens in the driver’s seat. The city’s long, polished roads and striking skyline almost beg for a Ferrari. But not every model gives the same experience. The cost to rent Ferrari cars in Dubai can swing wildly, anywhere from a few thousand dirhams to “I need to check my bank app twice.”
If you’re going to do it, you might as well pick the one that fits your mood. Here are five worth your attention.
Ferrari at full throttle, literally and figuratively. The Ferrari SF90 Stradale pairs a twin-turbo 4.0L V8 with three electric motors for a total of 986 horsepower. It’ll do 0-100 km/h in 2.5 seconds and top out at 340 km/h. On Dubai’s flat highways, you might never see its true potential, but take it toward Al Qudra at sunrise, and it feels like the desert was made for it.
If the SF90 is a wild stallion, the F8 Tributo is a thoroughbred you can actually handle. It’s got 710 horsepower from a 3.9L twin-turbo V8, the same 340 km/h top speed as the SF90, but a touch more forgiving on everyday roads. Late at night on Sheikh Zayed Road, it’s dangerously easy to forget you’re not on a racetrack.
The Ferrari 488 Pista is the stripped-down, track-focused sibling of the F8, same engine and horsepower, less weight, more bite. It’s sharper, edgier, and honestly wasted in traffic. Take it to Jebel Jais and you’ll understand why it exists. The way the sound bounces off the mountain walls is something you can’t put into numbers.
Yes, it’s an SUV. And yes, it’s still very much a Ferrari. The Ferrari Purosangue hides a 6.5L naturally aspirated V12 under the hood, good for 715 horsepower and a 310 km/h top speed. It’s all-wheel drive, roomy enough for four adults, and still quicker than most sports cars you’ll see on the road.
The most relaxed of the bunch. With 591 horsepower and a 320 km/h top speed, the Ferrari Portofino is still plenty fast, but it’s more about the open-air cruise down Jumeirah Beach Road than clocking lap times. Some call it “entry-level”; I call it the easiest way to look like you live here full-time.
| Model | Engine | Horsepower | Top Speed | 0-100 km/h |
| SF90 Stradale | 4.0L twin-turbo V8 + 3 electric motors | 986 hp | 340 km/h | 2.5 s |
| F8 Tributo | 3.9L twin-turbo V8 | 710 hp | 340 km/h | 2.9 s |
| 488 Pista | 3.9L twin-turbo V8 | 710 hp | 340 km/h | 2.85 s |
| Purosangue | 6.5L naturally aspirated V12 | 715 hp | 310 km/h | 3.3 s |
| Portofino | 3.9L twin-turbo V8 | 591 hp | 320 km/h | 3.5 s |
It depends on what you’re after. If you want to say you drove Ferrari’s most advanced machine, it’s the SF90. If you want fast without feeling like you’re on the edge of disaster, go for the F8 Tributo. The 488 Pista is for those who’d rather carve up mountain roads than cruise downtown. The Purosangue makes sense if you need practicality but don’t want to give up the thrill. And the Portofino? That’s for days when style beats speed.
Prices range from around AED 3,000 a day for the Portofino to over AED 7,000 for the SF90, and yes, the color can actually affect the rate.
If you’re asking me, I’d take the F8 Tributo. Quick enough to make you grin, calm enough to park at Dubai Mall without breaking into a sweat.
If you’re ready to turn your Dubai trip into something unforgettable, Silverstone is the place to start. With a fleet that includes all these Ferraris and more, they make it easy to hire sports cars that match your style, mood, and itinerary.
