Typical models of the minivan/minibus class in Cozumel are: Chevrolet Suburban 8 Seater, Ford Club Wagon 15 Seater, GMC Envoy 7 passenger, Ford Galaxy 7 seater, Chevrolet Uplander, Peugeot 807 7 seater and others.
Standard capacity of a minivan in Mexico is up to 9 people (8+1 formula), traditionally providing seven or eight passenger seats. The capacity of a minibus may vary from 9 to 15 people.
Please note, that in order to rent in Mexico a vehicle with capacity which exceeds 8 passengers, you would need a driving license of the corresponding category.
Minivan dimensions are quite unusual for an ordinary driver, which sometimes leads to appearance of scratches and dents during unsuccessful manoeuvring or parking. Therefore, we encourage you to order full coverage of insurance franchise during your booking, or directly at the rental office in Cozumel.
Before leaving the parking garage in Cozumel, inspect the minivan for exteriour defects and other signs of damage together with the office representative and mark the found defects found in your rental documents.

Popular questions on rental process
Intensity is the main feature of traffic in Mexico. Cars move out of order on the streets of the country. This may seem rather unusual for drivers who are used to ride on a certain lane when driving.
Even in large cities one-way streets are the most widespread. They are so narrow that turning around or parking on them is simply impossible.
Crossroads are also a striking feature of local roads. Here crossroads are rarely a place where meet only two streets. As a rule, crossroads have three (and sometimes more) streets intersected at different angles. In addition, they can be extended by two-and three-storey racks.
