How Much Does It Cost To Buy A Limo?

When starting a limo company, a significant amount of capital will be needed to begin the business.  A large portion of this capital will go towards buying the limos that will be used to transport your customers. 

So how much does it cost to buy a limo? 

The price of the limo is dependent on a number of factors and the combination of these factors is different for many limousines, which means that the price for each limo is different.  Depending on the price range you are looking for there will either be a great deal of limos available or very few which may be scattered throughout the country.

  • The style of the limo will affect the price a great deal.  There are many different styles of limos that are available, many of which are extended versions of luxury sedans. 
These styles include BMW models, Cadillac models, and even models taken from GM cars.  Each of these styles is priced according to body style and popularity of the vehicle.  Vehicles that are more popular are understandably higher priced than lesser known models.  The reason is that many of the more popular models are asked for by name by customers making limo reservations, allowing the limo companies that possess these cars to make more money off of them.
  • The size of the limo will also affect the price to buy the vehicle.  There are several sizes of limos available and limo companies need to have several different sizes available to satisfy a large number of customers. 
The smallest sized limo is used to set up to 6 people.  These limos are frequently used by individuals for special occasions, such as anniversaries, birthdays, and graduations.  The next size of limo typically seats 10 to 12 individuals and are used for numerous occasions, such as groups going to proms, weddings, or out for a night on the town.  The largest limos may be able to seat as many as 30 individuals and are commonly used for groups taking trips or heading to a vacation destination.  Each size of limo has a different price range that the cost of the limo falls into.
  • Other factors that will affect the cost of buying the limo include the model year of the vehicle and the amenities included in the limo. 

Most individuals want to rent a limo that is three years old or younger, making the newer limos much more highly priced.  As vehicle body styles change from year to year, the discerning consumer will be able to tell the approximate model year of the limo simply by looking at it.  The amenities included in the limo, such as bar area, fiber optic lighting, and audio/visual system, also has the ability to affect the price of buying the limo.  All of these factors taken into consideration dictate the cost of buying a limo.
