- An AC vent at every seat
- LED interior lighting and a TV screen

2Seat layouts and rates
A luxury layout has fewer seats than a standard tempo traveller of the same size because each seat is wider.

| 12 seat | Family holidays and corporate teams |
| 15 seat | Larger families on long trips |
| 20 seat | Premium group tours |

- VIP, executive and delegation travel
- Destination weddings and honeymoon convoys
- Long hill drives such as Delhi to Manali or Shimla
