Capacity and configurations
Match the vehicle to your headcount, not the other way around. CEC's chauffeured Mercedes-Benz Sprinters seat up to 12 (Executive) or 14 (Extended Lounge), sedans and SUVs cover smaller parties, and the party bus takes groups that outgrow a Sprinter. Groups that plan to switch seats, load luggage, or run multiple stops should size up one class.
