But the limousines listed below are the most common and will give you an idea of what to look for.

This brilliant limousine has proven to be a real head-turner.
Hummer Limousine
Exotic Stretch limousines may accommodate up to 12 passengers. But Hummer limousines can take on twice as many as that. If you need to transport at 24 passengers in style and in luxury, there’s no other way to go than to hire a Hummer limousine. If you get this vehicle, then you’re sure that everybody will fit comfortably aboard. Stretch limousines are only good for city driving.

Cadillac Escalade Limousine
Renting stretch Escalade limousine says you got style! The Cadillac Escalade Limousine is one of the newest additions to the model line-up, offers the maximum seating capacity in a beautifully appointed interior featuring all the latest amenities.

Chrysler 300 Limousine
The Chrysler 300s have always been at the top of their class with regards to style, luxury and presence, however, just imagine how much more imposing and eye catching a 300 would be if it were stretched to a limousine. While the larger stretch limousines often lose something of their class and style when they are stretched to three times their size, the long wheelbase Chrysler manages to exude the style and grace of its luxurious limousine cousins, while still providing ample passenger room. The Chrysler 300 looks just like an ordinary sedan in length, however it is actually six inches longer than the standard 300, providing an extra ten cubic feet of interior space, 46 inches of which is for passenger leg room. So while limousines are often hired to make an impression and a head-turning entrance, you may still want to feel like a 1950s movie star arriving at a premiere and that feeling can be lost when you step from one of the larger SUV limousines.

San Jose, California is one of the biggest cities in the United States with a population of nearly a million people. The city is located close to San Francisco, so the area has enough potential customers to make almost any business sound attractive. Still, the population is not the only reason that San Jose is also one of most attractive places for opening a limousine service.
There are lots of limousine services in San Jose, more than I would have expected when I looked at the population of the city. The main reason for the abundance of stretch limousines is Silicon Valley, the hearth of high tech and electronics in United States and home of many famous Internet companies. The people in Silicon Valley have a very high average salary which gives them enough money to do whatever they want. Some of the people in Silicon Valley spend all the money on electronic devices, but others choose to enjoy the good things like for example limousine transportation.
Some of the people in Silicon Valley do of course own their own limousines, but most of them only use limousine transportation once in a while. The frequent need for limousine transportation creates an enormous demand for limousine services and thereby makes it a very attractive place for opening a limousine service.
In addition to transporting people around in San Jose, the owner of a limousine service might also find himself transporting clients to Mexico. An outstanding date in San Jose could very well include visiting an excellent restaurant in Mexico and limousine transportation is always desirable in such cases. The owner of a limousine service might also choose to transport people to wine yards in Mexico. Usually he will then transport a couple or a small group in each of his stretch limousines.

Limousine (or in short Limo) is a name of a special, strangely long luxury car and are usually black (the traditional black limo is considered suitable for funerals as black is a color of mourning in most of the western societies) or white (the traditional white limo is fitting for wedding ceremonies in western societies) in color. Employed drivers called chauffeurs mostly drive these cars.
In general Limos are owned by wealthy people but in many cases governments, big companies and broadcasters to convey their top level politicians, executives and guests respectively also own it. These cars are believed or observed as symbols of wealth.Limousine cars, being a special luxury one have a partition in between the driver?s and passenger compartments, which is usually a sliding glass window. The partition is there so that any conversation between passengers can be kept confidential from the chauffeur.
The seat arrangement in these cars is forward facing (for passengers) with a considerable amount of foot room or foot space. There are two “jump seats”, that are mounted backward, of the driver, and they can be kept folded when not in use, but in some modern versions of limousine cars this feature is not found any more. A limo can carry seven passengers in addition to the driver. Sometimes these cars hold items of entertainment for the passengers like audio players, television, video players, and even bars along with refrigerators. Limousines have multiple doors.
Some of the popular limousine cars are Mercedes S600 Pullman, BMW 74Il, Holden Statesman, Hummer H2, Jaguar XJ, Maybach 62, Cadillac DTS, Lincoln Town Car and others.
Though Limousine cars are considered to be a symbol of wealth and are thus thought to be owned by rich individuals but in most of the times it has been seen that only limousine service or rental companies own limos. Even those rich people who include limos as their major means of transport do not always possess a limousine. What they do is that they go for a contract with a limousine service or rental companies for a long-term basis to get the availability of the vehicle on a lease agreement.
Apart from prosperous and well off persons, anyone in need of these cars can hire it by making contact with any rental firm or organization, which offers or provide limos on lease on a short term basis (as going for long term could be very expensive for them to afford). The most frequent necessities or demand for these limos are for going to airports, balls, proms, weddings and sometimes even to funerals.
