Six or seven people, a stack of suitcases, and one car that has to swallow all of it without anyone riding with a bag on their lap. That's the job the Forthing Tour V9 was built for, and it's where you'll want to rent the Dongfeng Forthing Tour V9 in Dubai rather than squeeze a group into a seven-seat SUV. The name throws people, so to be clear: Forthing is Dongfeng's MPV line, and the Tour V9 is the large people mover in it. We deliver and collect it anywhere in the city at no charge, and the argument of this page is simple. If you're moving a group with real luggage and you care more about cabin space than badge, this MPV beats both a cramped SUV and a pricier van.
Who actually fits, with the bags
The V9 seats seven or eight depending on the second-row layout, and the difference matters more than it sounds. Captain's chairs in the middle give the two centre passengers their own armrests and a walk-through to the back, which is the setup most families end up preferring. The bench version trades that aisle for a genuine eighth seat.
What separates a real MPV from a seven-seat SUV is the third row. In the Tour V9 it's a row adults can sit in for a full airport-to-hotel run, not a kids-only afterthought. With all three rows up you still get a usable boot, enough for the cabin bags and soft luggage of a full load. Need to move a group of six with a week of hard suitcases? Fold the rearmost seats and the space opens right up. That's the scenario this car wins: people and luggage at the same time, not one or the other.
Why an MPV over a seven-seat SUV
A seven-seat SUV looks like the obvious group car until you load it. The third row eats the boot, the roofline pinches headroom at the back, and someone always ends up uncomfortable. The Forthing Tour V9 uses its footprint differently. A boxier body and a flat floor mean more usable room inside for a vehicle that isn't much longer to park, and it rents for less than the equivalent large SUV.
The sliding rear doors are the part people underrate. In a packed mall garage or a tight Marina spot, sliders let passengers out without swinging a heavy door into the car beside you. Loading kids and car seats is easier too. If status is the point of the rental, an SUV still wins on the road. If carrying everyone in comfort is the point, the MPV is the smarter pick, and your wallet notices.
Driving it around Dubai
This is a comfortable cruiser, not a quick one. It's front-wheel drive, tuned for a soft, settled ride, and it does its best work on Sheikh Zayed Road and the run to Abu Dhabi where everyone arrives relaxed. The cabin stays cool through a July afternoon, which matters with a full load of passengers when the outside temperature is past 45 degrees. For airport collection at DXB or DWC, a group plus all their cases fits in one trip instead of two cars.
Be honest with yourself about two things. It's a big vehicle, close to five metres, so a tight multi-storey ramp or a packed residential street takes a moment of care. The parking sensors and camera help, and after a day you stop noticing. And it's no off-roader. Front-wheel drive and a low-slung MPV body are for tarmac, so leave the dune trips and the Hatta tracks to a proper 4WD. Point it at the highway, the school run, and the airport, and it's exactly right.
Equipment for the money
For its price bracket the Tour V9 comes well kitted. You get a large central touchscreen, climate control that reaches the rear rows, and the kind of soft, supportive seating that earns its keep on a longer drive. It's the value end of the people-mover market, so don't expect limousine materials. Expect a quiet, roomy, properly air-conditioned cabin that does the group-transport job without the van-rental bill, which is the whole point.
Every rental from us includes the Salik toll tag and insurance, so the gates on Sheikh Zayed Road sort themselves out and you're covered from the moment we hand over the keys. There's no security deposit to tie up, and we bring the car to you.
FAQ — Common Questions Answered.
How many people and how much luggage really fit in the Forthing Tour V9?
You can seat seven or eight depending on whether you choose captain's chairs or a bench in the middle row. With all three rows occupied, the boot still holds the cabin bags and soft luggage for a full group, which is the part SUVs struggle with. For six people with a full set of hard suitcases, fold the rearmost row and you'll have plenty of room. It's one of the few cars in its class that carries the people and their bags at the same time.
Is the third row big enough for adults?
Yes, the third row in the Tour V9 is sized for adults on real journeys, not just children on short hops. Two grown passengers can sit back there comfortably for an airport transfer or a day trip to Abu Dhabi. Getting in is easy because the middle seats slide and tip forward, and the sliding side doors give a wide opening. That usable back row is the main reason to choose this MPV over a seven-seat SUV.
Is the Tour V9 hard to park in Dubai?
It's a large MPV at close to five metres, so it needs a little more thought than a sedan in tight spots. The parking camera and sensors make multi-storey garages and Marina parking manageable, and most renters are comfortable with it within a day. The sliding rear doors actually help in narrow bays, since passengers step out without banging a door into the next car. For mall, hotel, and residential parking it's fine. Only the very tightest old ramps call for patience.
Can I take the Forthing Tour V9 off-road or into the desert?
No, this is a front-wheel-drive people mover meant for paved roads, not soft sand or rocky tracks. Its low body and lack of four-wheel drive mean a desert run or the Hatta trails would leave you stuck. If your trip includes dune driving, rent a proper 4WD instead. The Tour V9 is built for the highway, the airport run, and city driving with a full group on board.
What's included when I rent it from you in Dubai?
Your rental includes the Salik toll tag and insurance, so highway tolls are handled and you're covered from pickup. We deliver the car and collect it anywhere in Dubai at no extra charge, and there's no security deposit to leave with us. You'll need a valid driving licence, and visitors should carry an International Driving Permit alongside their home licence. Tell us your group size and we'll set the seating layout that suits you before we hand it over.
