Hourly chauffeur in a Mercedes Sprinter — what does it cost

An hourly Mercedes Sprinter booking in Auckland gives you a chauffeur-driven mini-coach for up to sixteen passengers and their luggage, charged at a transparent, GST-inclusive rate with no meter and no surge pricing. The exact cost depends on how many hours you need, and you’ll see the full figure before you confirm anything at chauffeur.co.nz/book.

What makes the Sprinter different from the other vehicles?

The Sprinter is our mini-coach: it seats up to sixteen passengers with room for sixteen bags, compared to the Mercedes E-Class sedan (three passengers, three bags) and the V-Class SUV (seven passengers, six bags). It’s the right choice when you’re moving a larger group around Auckland together.

How does hourly pricing actually work for a Sprinter?

You tell us how many hours you need, and we quote you one fixed, GST-inclusive price that covers the vehicle, the chauffeur, and the time. There’s no meter running, no surge multiplier, and no surprises. The number you see at chauffeur.co.nz/book is what you pay.

Can I use the Sprinter for a full day around Auckland?

Yes. Hourly bookings can run as long as you need—whether that’s a three-hour winery loop out to Waiheke or Matakana, or a full day moving between the airport, the city, and North Shore or West Auckland. You simply book the total hours required.

Who’s actually driving the Sprinter?

A chauffeur employed and trained by us, not an app contractor. They work for chauffeur.co.nz, they can’t decline your job, and they’re accountable to our standards. The Sprinter you book is the Sprinter that turns up.

Where can I book an hourly Sprinter outside Auckland?

We operate the Sprinter by the hour in Wellington, Christchurch, and Queenstown as well. Head to chauffeur.co.nz/book, choose your city, select the Sprinter, and enter your hours to see the full price before you confirm.


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.
