How to choose a car that fits your group?
The suitable car for your group is not only based on your number of passengers, but also the number of luggage items and luggage size. When contacting us and getting a consultation from our team, please send your exact number of passengers and the full image of your luggage, so our team can arrange the most suitable car for you.
For example: If your group has 3 passengers but carries 3 large suitcases and 3 carry-on bags, a sedan may not provide enough luggage space. In this case, an SUV or minivan may be a more suitable option, depending on the vehicle’s actual storage capacity.
