Full Transparency on NOIRR Pricing
The NOIRR fleet spans six vehicles across three categories. Here's what you pay, what's included, and what you need to factor in when planning.
Daily Rates
| Vehicle | Category | Daily Rate |
|---|---|---|
| Yamaha XMAX 300 | Scooter | ฿1,200 |
| Honda ADV350 | Scooter / Adventure | ฿1,400 |
| Kawasaki Z900 | Big Bike | ฿2,800 |
| Ducati Monster 937 | Big Bike | ฿3,500 |
| Tesla Model 3 | Car (EV) | ฿4,500 |
| Jaecoo 6 EV | Car (EV) | ฿5,500 |
What's Included in the Daily Rate
- Vehicle delivery and collection anywhere in Bangkok
- Third-party liability insurance
- 24/7 support contact
- Helmet (motorcycle and scooter rentals)
- Full tank of fuel / full battery charge at delivery
What Costs Extra
- Fuel / electricity: Return the vehicle as received (full). Petrol for bikes, electric charge for the cars. EV charging at your hotel or a public charger is at your cost.
- Tolls: Expressway and highway tolls are your responsibility. Bangkok to Hua Hin is approximately ฿100-150 in tolls one way.
- Delivery outside central Bangkok: A small fee may apply for delivery to areas significantly outside the Bangkok metro. Confirm at booking.
- Extended hours: Rentals are per calendar day. Vehicles not returned by the agreed time may incur an additional day rate. Coordinate extensions early.
Security Deposit
A refundable security deposit is held at the start of the rental. The amount depends on the vehicle. Deposits are held in cash or by card hold. NOIRR does not hold passports as deposit. This is worth stating because many Bangkok rental shops still do, which is technically against Thai law and extremely inconvenient for travelers.
The deposit is returned in full at the end of the rental, provided there is no unreported damage. NOIRR documents the vehicle condition at delivery and collection, creating a clear record for both sides.
License and IDP
An IDP from your home country costs approximately ฿600-900 equivalent depending on where you are. For motorcycle rentals, you need a motorcycle-class IDP (Category A). For car rentals, a standard car IDP. This is a one-time cost that covers your entire trip.
Comparison: What a Week Costs
| Vehicle | 7 Days | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Yamaha XMAX 300 | ฿8,400 | City scooter. Zero-extra-cost local trips all week. |
| Kawasaki Z900 | ฿19,600 | Big bike. Day trips included, no taxi spend. |
| Tesla Model 3 | ฿31,500 | Premium EV. Includes unlimited city and expressway driving. |
Is NOIRR Cheaper Than a Standard Bangkok Rental?
For scooters, NOIRR rates are comparable to mid-range Bangkok shops. For big bikes and premium cars, NOIRR is slightly above budget operators and below traditional luxury rental companies. The difference is the delivery model: there is no lot to visit, no counter to queue at, and no hidden fees on the paperwork.
