Luggage, honestly
Seventeen seats leaves less boot than the 13-seater. For a multi-day tour with seventeen suitcases, take two vehicles or drop to the 13-seater.
What it is good for, and what it is not
The longest vehicle in the Urbania range. Confirm venue access before booking for a wedding or a hotel with a tight portico.
Cost per person on 20 routes from Bangalore
Round-trip fare for this vehicle, divided by its seat count. Use it to compare against the other vehicles at your group size rather than as a quote — your actual per-head cost depends on how many of the seats you are filling.

Compare with the rest of the fleet
Ertiga
The smallest vehicle on this site, and the entry point for group travel. Below six people a sedan is cheaper; at six the Ertiga is the only vehicle where nobody sits sideways.
Tempo Traveller 12
The best cost per person of anything on this site. If the group is eight or more and the budget matters more than recliner seats, this is the answer.
Tempo Traveller 17
The workhorse for temple groups and school excursions. Seventeen seats at the lowest per-head cost available anywhere in the fleet.
Urbania 10
Ten pushback seats and a boot that swallows a family's luggage. The version to pick when the group is small enough that everyone wants to recline.
Urbania 13
The most-booked Urbania. Thirteen recliners, standing headroom and a real boot — the default choice for corporate offsites and wedding-party transport.
Mini Bus
For groups above seventeen, where splitting into two Tempo Travellers costs more and separates the party.
Our honest view
Confirm the venue before you book this one. Seventeen recliners is the most seats we can offer without moving to a mini bus, and it is genuinely comfortable, but it is also the longest vehicle in the Urbania range. Wedding porticos, hotel driveways and hilltop temple approaches are where it runs out of room, and a five-minute check with us beforehand avoids a bad arrival.
