The fastest way to choose: count your passengers and luggage. The Mercedes E-Class handles up to two people with two suitcases, the V-Class takes four passengers with four bags, and the Sprinter accommodates ten of each. Since 2002, chauffeur.co.nz has matched the vehicle you book to the one that arrives—no surprises, no substitutions.
What's the actual passenger limit for each Mercedes?
The E-Class sedan takes two passengers with two checked bags plus two carry-ons. The V-Class seats four with four suitcases and four carry-ons. The Sprinter mini-coach handles ten passengers with ten large bags and ten carry-ons.
How do I know which one I need for an airport run?
Add up your group: if it's just you and a travel companion heading to Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch or Queenstown airport, the E-Class works. Three or four people means the V-Class. Larger family groups or shared pickups need the Sprinter.
Is the price different for each vehicle class?
Yes, but every option shows a fixed, GST-inclusive price before you confirm—no surge, no meter. The exact figure depends on your route and vehicle, and you'll see it in full at chauffeur.co.nz/book before you commit.
Will I actually get the Mercedes I book?
The vehicle you choose is the one that arrives. Because chauffeur.co.nz employs its own drivers rather than relying on app contractors, the fleet is managed directly and the vehicle assignment is guaranteed.
Can I book any of these three in anywhere in New Zealand?
All three Mercedes models—E-Class, V-Class and Sprinter—are available anywhere in New Zealand, with the same employed-driver model and transparent pricing nationwide.
Fixed prices, NZD, GST-inclusive. No surge, ever. The vehicle you book is the vehicle that arrives, driven by a chauffeur we employ — trained by us and accountable to us, not an app contractor who can decline the job. The chauffeur — since 2002.
