NYC chauffeur fleet | luxury car service New York
Luxury Chauffeur Service NYC is a New York chauffeur company with four published vehicle classes: Mercedes-Benz E-Class $120/hr, Cadillac Escalade $150/hr, Mercedes-Benz S-Class $175/hr, and Mercedes Sprinter $200/hr. Every hourly class has a 3-hour minimum. Book at /book or (929) 205-4788.
Quick answer: which car should I book in NYC?
As of 2026, match headcount first, then bags, then product. One to three people with three bags: E-Class at $120/hr or S-Class at $175/hr. Four to six people or six bags: Escalade at $150/hr. For larger parties, request a Sprinter at $200/hr and confirm its seating and luggage configuration. If the job is a one-way between Manhattan and JFK, LGA, EWR, TEB, or HPN, use the airport table on the rates page instead of the hourly floor.
Port Authority counted 63.3 million passengers at JFK, 33.5 million at LaGuardia, and 48.9 million at Newark Liberty in 2024. Luggage-heavy arrivals are why bag counts sit next to passenger counts on this page. Port Authority 2024 passenger release.

| Class | Passengers | Bags | Hourly | 3-hour floor |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mercedes-Benz E-Class | 3 | 3 | $120 | $360 |

Hourly is the product when the chauffeur stays: a roadshow, a wedding load-in, or an unknown end time. A one-way airport drop uses the Manhattan airport table, not this hourly floor. Sedan and SUV hourly rates include gratuity and fees. S-Class and Sprinter are starting rates; the booking form confirms your final price, which can vary with taxes, tolls and availability. Full columns, including SUV and Sprinter airport rows, live on rates.
Airport flats by class, not by the hour
JFK ↔ Manhattan: sedan $170, SUV $160, Sprinter $700. LGA ↔ Manhattan: sedan $150, SUV $160, Sprinter $600. EWR ↔ Manhattan: sedan $170, SUV $160, Sprinter $700. TEB ↔ Manhattan: sedan $130, SUV $160, Sprinter $600. HPN ↔ Manhattan: sedan $130, SUV $165, Sprinter $650. S-Class is not a separate airport column on that table. If you want S-Class for an airport run, ask for a quote rather than copying the sedan row.
Those rows are Manhattan pairs. A Brooklyn Heights hotel to JFK is not the $170 sedan line. A Hoboken address to EWR is not the $170 EWR Manhattan line. Give both pins on the reservation.
Planning windows and named roads (Van Wyck, Grand Central Parkway, Lincoln Tunnel, Holland Tunnel, George Washington Bridge, I-95) are on the airports page. They are ranges, not a promised minute count.
Reserved class versus an on-demand app car
| Topic | Luxury Chauffeur Service NYC | On-demand rideshare |
|---|---|---|
| Vehicle | E-Class, S-Class, Escalade, or Sprinter chosen first | Class requested in the app, exact model not reserved here |
| Price | Printed hourly floors and airport flats | Quote generated at request time |
| Capacity | 3 / 3 / 6 / 14 published | Depends on the car that arrives |
| Booking | /book or (929) 205-4788 | Usually when you are ready to leave |
This table does not invent an Uber Black or Lyft Lux dollar figure. Those fares move. The useful comparison is that this site prints the class and the number before you travel.
Matching a New York itinerary to a class
Midtown hotel to JFK Terminal 4, two adults, two carry-ons: E-Class airport transfer, published Manhattan sedan $170. Do not start a $360 three-hour sedan charter unless the chauffeur is staying after the terminal.
LaGuardia to a Park Slope brownstone, four adults, four large bags: Escalade, because 4 passengers and 4 bags sit inside the 6/6 listing. Do not copy the LGA ↔ Manhattan sedan $150 row. That row is a Manhattan pair. Quote from the two actual pins.
Teterboro FBO to Hudson Yards, eight colleagues, wait through a meeting: Sprinter hourly at $200, $600 three-hour floor. TEB Manhattan sedan $130 only applies if you release the car in Manhattan and book a second ride later.
Manhattan to Greenwich, two adults, no extra stops: point-to-point starting sedan $175+. If they add Stamford and a return, switch to hourly E-Class $120 or S-Class $175.
Brooklyn Heights ceremony, ten guests, Manhattan reception: Sprinter at $200/hr. The Escalade stops at 6 passengers. Venue curbs at Madison Square Garden, Lincoln Center, Carnegie Hall, and Broadway theaters need an entrance name, not just the venue name. Service types for those jobs are on services.
Financial District to Newark Terminal C, three people, three bags: E-Class airport row if Manhattan is the origin, $170 sedan. If the origin is Jersey City, that is not the Manhattan row. Named crossings for Newark from Manhattan are the Lincoln Tunnel, Holland Tunnel, and George Washington Bridge.
Upper East Side to Westchester County Airport, two people: HPN Manhattan sedan $130 if Manhattan is one end. A Scarsdale house to HPN is a different quote. Manhattan ↔ Westchester sedan starts at $130+ on the point-to-point table.
Hamptons or Montauk from Manhattan: starting sedan $350+ and SUV $450+. Sprinter for that run is not a published flat on the airport table. Request a quote with passenger count and bags. NYC ↔ Philadelphia sedan starts at $395+. NYC ↔ Atlantic City sedan starts at $375+.
S-Class is $175/hr with the same 3-passenger / 3-bag count as the E-Class. The extra money buys the class, not extra seats. If you need six seats, the Escalade at $150/hr is the published match, not an S-Class with imagined jump seats. For a larger party, request the Sprinter class at $200/hr and confirm the assigned seating layout and luggage fit.
Airport SUV rows are $160 for JFK, LGA, EWR, and TEB Manhattan, and $165 for HPN Manhattan. Those SUV rows are still one-ways. If the Escalade stays after the hotel, the product is hourly at $150 with a $450 three-hour floor. Mixing the $160 JFK SUV flat with a three-hour wait is how quotes get rewritten.
Terminal names still belong on the reservation even after you pick a class. JFK Terminal 1, 4, 5, 7, and 8 do not share one inner curb. Newark A, B, and C are separate. LaGuardia still splits some flights to the Marine Air Terminal. Teterboro uses FBO names. The class does not replace the meeting point.
This fleet page does not publish Wi-Fi, champagne, massage seats, or a conference table as a guaranteed amenity. It publishes class, passenger count, bag count, hourly floors, and the airport table. If you need a specific extra, write it on the quote request so it can be accepted or declined in writing.
Neighborhoods these vehicles actually pick up in
Listed coverage includes Manhattan (Midtown, Hudson Yards, Hell's Kitchen, Upper East Side, Upper West Side, Financial District, Battery Park City), Brooklyn (DUMBO, Brooklyn Heights, Williamsburg, Park Slope), Queens (Astoria, Long Island City, Forest Hills, plus JFK and LGA), the Bronx, Staten Island, Long Island including the Hamptons and Montauk, Westchester including White Plains, Scarsdale, and Rye, Connecticut including Greenwich and Stamford, and New Jersey including Jersey City, Hoboken, Newark, and Princeton.
A listed neighborhood is not a hidden amenity and not a flat rate. The class still follows passenger and bag counts. The product still follows airport versus hourly versus point-to-point. About copy and coverage cards also live on about.
How to book a vehicle class
- Open the reservation page or call (929) 205-4788.
- Give passenger count and bags first so the class fits.
- Name E-Class, S-Class, Escalade, or Sprinter.
- Say airport transfer, hourly charter, or point-to-point.
- For JFK, LGA, EWR, TEB, or HPN, add airline, flight number, and terminal when you know them.
Fleet FAQ
What vehicles are in the Luxury Chauffeur Service NYC fleet?
Four published classes: Mercedes-Benz E-Class sedan ($120/hr), Cadillac Escalade SUV ($150/hr), Mercedes-Benz S-Class sedan ($175/hr), and Mercedes Sprinter van ($200/hr). Each hourly class has a 3-hour minimum.
How many passengers does each NYC chauffeur vehicle hold?
Sedans accommodate up to three passengers and the SUV up to six. Confirm the assigned Sprinter seating layout and luggage fit before booking.
How many bags does each class hold?
Tell the reservations team the number and size of every bag. Confirm luggage space for the assigned vehicle, especially when the passenger count is near its limit.
What is the lowest published hourly vehicle?
The Mercedes-Benz E-Class at $120 per hour with a 3-hour minimum, so $360. That is the lowest hourly booking on this site.
When do I book a Sprinter instead of an Escalade?
Request a suitable group vehicle when passengers or bags exceed SUV capacity, and confirm the assigned configuration. Sprinter hourly starts at $200 with a $600 three-hour floor. Escalade is $150/hr and stops at 6 passengers. The Sprinter's final price is confirmed in the booking form and can vary with taxes, tolls and availability.
Do airport transfers use hourly fleet prices?
No. One-way Manhattan airport flats are a separate table: JFK sedan $170, LGA sedan $150, EWR sedan $170, TEB sedan $130, HPN sedan $130. Use hourly when the chauffeur stays.
What is JFK Sprinter to Manhattan?
The published JFK ↔ Manhattan Sprinter figure is $700. LGA Sprinter is $600. EWR Sprinter is $700. Hourly Sprinter starts at $200 with a 3-hour minimum. Your final price is confirmed in the booking form and can vary with taxes, tolls and availability.
How do I reserve a class?
Open /book or call (929) 205-4788. Name the class, passenger count, bags, and whether the trip is airport, hourly, or point-to-point.
Match published counts to a real New York itinerary
The fleet page is a capacity chart, not a brochure. Mercedes-Benz E-Class is 3 passengers and 3 bags at $120 per hour. Mercedes-Benz S-Class is also 3 and 3, at $175 per hour. Cadillac Escalade is 6 and 6 at $150 per hour. Mercedes Sprinter capacity must be confirmed; its display is $200 per hour. Every hourly class has a 3-hour minimum, so the three-hour estimates are $360, $525, $450, and $600.
Two adults with two roll-aboards fit the E-Class. Two adults with four large suitcases do not, even though headcount is 2. That job is the Escalade because bags are 4 and the sedan bag count is 3. Four adults with four large bags also fit the Escalade. Eight colleagues do not. Eight is a Sprinter job because the Escalade stops at 6.
A Midtown hotel to JFK Terminal 4 with two people and two bags is still the airport product, not the hourly floor. The published JFK Manhattan sedan figure is $170. Three hours of E-Class time is $360. Use $170 if the car is released at the terminal. Use $360 only if the chauffeur is staying after the airport.
A family of five landing at LaGuardia with ski bags is an Escalade airport quote from those pins. Do not copy the LGA Manhattan sedan $150 row onto a Brooklyn Heights hotel. Do not copy the Escalade hourly $150 onto a one-way unless the chauffeur is waiting. Manhattan LGA SUV is $160. Manhattan LGA Sprinter is $600.
A Teterboro FBO arrival of nine people is a Sprinter. TEB Manhattan Sprinter is $600 if Manhattan is the drop and the van is released. If the group waits through a Hudson Yards meeting, that is hourly Sprinter at $200 with a $600 three-hour floor. TEB Manhattan sedan $130 is the wrong row for nine people.
S-Class does not add seats. It is the same 3/3 listing as the E-Class at a higher hourly number. If the only difference you care about is class, book S-Class at $175/hr. If the difference is luggage, book Escalade or Sprinter instead of paying $175 for a sedan that still holds three bags.
Sprinter loading is a curb problem in Midtown, the Theater District, and hotel porte-cocheres. Name the entrance on the reservation. The published Sprinter counts do not change because the curb is tight. Madison Square Garden, Lincoln Center, Carnegie Hall, and Broadway theaters still use the assigned seating and luggage confirmation.
Point-to-point work still uses this fleet. Manhattan to Brooklyn sedan starts at $130+. Manhattan to Greenwich sedan starts at $175+. Manhattan to the Hamptons sedan starts at $350+. NYC to Philadelphia sedan starts at $395+. NYC to Atlantic City sedan starts at $375+. If the group exceeds SUV capacity, ask for a suitable Sprinter on those routes rather than forcing the sedan starting price.
Port Authority counted 63.3 million passengers at JFK, 33.5 million at LaGuardia, and 48.9 million at Newark Liberty in 2024. Luggage volume is why this page prints bag counts next to seats. Source: Port Authority 2024 passenger release. For-hire passenger rights in New York City are explained by the NYC TLC passenger bill of rights.
Book the class at /book or (929) 205-4788. Say passenger count, bags, and whether the trip is airport, hourly, or point-to-point. This page does not invent Wi-Fi, champagne, massage seats, child-seat prices, or a 15-minute early arrival.
Hourly three-hour estimates again: E-Class $360, Escalade $450, S-Class $525, Sprinter $600. Airport one-ways stay on the Manhattan table when Manhattan is one end. JFK sedan $170 versus $360 sedan charter is the cleanest split. Book the class that matches the count, not the class name you like more.
