1. What is the core logic for choosing a vehicle for a multi-person custom car tour?
The core needs of a multi-person custom car tour are comfort, practicality, and value. Attractions around Urumqi are scattered, and some routes (such as Duku Highway and Yizhao Highway) have higher requirements for vehicle performance. Vehicle selection should consider the following factors:
1. Number of people and seats: Choose the number of seats based on the group size to avoid overcrowding or wasted space. For example, a family of 4 can choose a 5-seat SUV, while a group of 6-8 is recommended to choose a 7-seat business van or 9-seat minibus.
2. Luggage space: Xinjiang has large temperature differences between day and night, so you need to carry thick jackets, photography equipment, etc. When luggage is heavy, choose a vehicle with a large trunk capacity.
3. Itinerary pace: If you plan long daily drives (e.g., over 400 km), choose a vehicle with comfortable seats and good shock absorption; if mainly short trips, focus on cost-effectiveness.
