Every minibus comes with multiple 110V outlets and USB ports—either at every row or in shared panels—so passengers can keep phones, tablets, and laptops charged throughout the trip. Perfect for business travelers heading to SpaceX, school groups, or event attendees.

Climate Control with Personal Air Vents
Advanced HVAC systems ensure the cabin stays cool in summer and warm in winter, with personal air vents above each seat row for individual comfort. Essential for staying comfortable during slow traffic on the 105 or 405.

Leather Seating
High-back, reclining seats upholstered in cloth or optional leatherette provide comfortable support for short or long rides. Armrests, headrests, and optional seat belts make it easy to relax, read, or catch a quick nap while on the move.

Overhead & Undercarriage Storage
Carry-on bags, backpacks, and jackets can be stowed in overhead racks inside the cabin, while larger items like luggage, sports equipment, or presentation materials fit in exterior rear cargo area. There’s plenty of room for all your gear.
