What’s the Average Price for a Limousine?
The average price for a limousine is typically $100–$300 per hour for a classic stretch limo, with many markets seeing overall limo rentals commonly falling somewhere around $85–$145/hr on the low-to-mid end (before factors like day/time, vehicle type, and minimum hours).
Because “limousine” can mean different things (stretch limo vs. chauffeured luxury sedan/SUV), here’s the clearest way to think about “average” pricing:
Average limo prices by type
1) Classic stretch limousine (6–10 passengers)
Common range: $100–$300/hour
Weekend minimums are common; some companies require 4–5 hours.
2) Chauffeured luxury sedan (often called “limo service” online)
Common range: ~$65–$120/hour (varies by city and provider)
Airport transfers are often flat-rate instead of hourly (examples in NYC show set fares for sedans/SUVs).
3) SUV limousine / high-end specialty vehicles
Common range: $150–$300+/hour, and in some markets higher for premium models and peak demand
4) Party bus / large group vehicles (often cross-shopped with limos)
Common range: $150–$400/hour (and can go higher depending on size/market)
What changes the price the most
Vehicle type & passenger count (sedan vs stretch vs SUV limo vs bus)
Minimum hours (often 3–5 hours for events/weekends)
Day/time & season (Friday/Saturday, prom/wedding season = higher)
Trip style: hourly charter vs point-to-point/airport flat rate
Add-ons & fees: gratuity, tolls, waiting time, extra stops (often excluded from base rate)
Real-world “average total” examples (what people mean by “average”)
Evening stretch limo booking: roughly $424–$950 depending on hours/vehicle
Prom packages: often priced in multi-hour blocks; typical hourly ranges like $75–$150/hr for stretch and $125–$300/hr for SUV limo are commonly cited

What’s the cheapest limo option?
A chauffeured luxury sedan (often marketed as “limo service”) is usually the most affordable option compared to stretch/SUV limos.
