Standard, Electric, SUV/XL, Business or Minibus: Which Car to Choose

The default choice for most solo travellers, couples and small families: up to 4 passengers and a combined luggage budget of 2 large bags + 2 cabin bags, or 4 cabin bags. If you're not travelling with an unusual amount of luggage or a group larger than four, this is very likely the right category.

The same seats and luggage capacity as Standard, with the vehicle itself being fully electric — no local exhaust. Choose this if that matters to you; it doesn't change the price structure or the guarantees, only the vehicle sent. See the guide on electric car availability for what we can honestly say about getting one on any given booking.

A step up in both seats and luggage: 6 passengers and a larger combined luggage budget, useful for a bigger family, a group of friends, or a couple with more luggage than a Standard car's budget covers — a third large suitcase is a common reason to move up to this category.

A more premium vehicle and presentation, at the same 4-passenger capacity as Standard. It's about the car and how it's presented, not extra room — see the guide on what the Business category actually adds for the full detail on what does and doesn't come with it.

The largest category: 8 passengers and a substantial luggage budget, built for a large family, two families travelling together, or a genuinely full group with a lot of bags. If you're weighing whether to book two smaller cars or one Minibus, this is usually the simpler and more coordinated option for a single group.

Count your actual passengers and bags before choosing, rather than guess based on the category names alone — a large checked case counts as two luggage units against the combined budget, and a cabin bag as one, so it's worth doing the rough arithmetic if you're near a category's limit. If you're genuinely unsure after that, mention your exact count in the booking notes and we'll confirm what fits before pickup, rather than let you discover a mismatch at the kerb.
