The Nissan Almera rents on Koh Samui from ฿800 per day in low season, averaging ฿900 per day across the year. It seats 5, takes 2 large bags, and comes with comprehensive first-class insurance with Collision Damage Waiver (CDW), a refundable ฿3,000 deposit and free delivery anywhere on the island.
| Duration | Low season | High season |
|---|---|---|
| Per day | ฿800 | ฿1,000 |

| Per month | ฿13,500 | ฿17,000 |
The Nissan Almera is the cheapest sedan we rent and has the largest rear seat of any car in its class - Nissan built it with an unusually long wheelbase, and rear legroom is closer to a car a segment above. The 1.0-litre turbo three-cylinder is economical and has decent low-speed pull. Equipment is basic but includes the things that matter: Apple CarPlay, a reversing camera and cruise control.

Any minor damage is deducted from the deposit and the balance returned. We photograph every panel, the interior, the fuel or charge level and the odometer at handover, and you get those timestamped photos with your digital contract - so there is a record to compare against rather than an argument.
Budget-conscious couples and families of four who want a locked boot, and anyone carrying taller passengers in the back. It is the lowest-cost route to a proper sedan on the island.
At ฿800 a day in low season this is one of the cheapest four-door cars on Samui with a warranty-age vehicle behind it, and the rear space means four adults are not negotiating knee room on the drive from the airport to Lamai. The three-cylinder engine is audible when worked hard on the hill climbs, which is the honest trade for the rate. Ground clearance is standard sedan height, so the usual caution on steep villa driveways applies.
It is the cheapest sedan in our fleet, starting at ฿800 a day in low season. Only the Toyota Yaris and Suzuki Swift hatchbacks rent for less, and neither has a separate locked boot.
More than any other car in its class - Nissan gave it an unusually long wheelbase. Adults sitting behind adults is comfortable, which is not true of every economy sedan.
Not in practice. It is turbocharged and pulls well at low speed, which suits island driving. It is more audible than a four-cylinder when climbing hills fully loaded, but it is not slow.
Comparable models by size, capacity and daily rate.
