Which SUV comes in Uber XL?

We are excited to launch our newest car type – uberXL! With room for your whole entourage (up to six passengers), uberXL is comfy, convenient and low-cost. You can expect pickups from Toyota Highlanders, Acura MDXs, and Honda Pilots, among others. PRO TIP: Fare split!



In 2026, the Uber XL category remains a high-fidelity solution for groups of up to six passengers, and the eligible SUV fleet is diverse. Popular high-capacity models that qualify include the Chevrolet Suburban and Tahoe, the Ford Expedition, and the GMC Yukon. For those seeking a more premium feel, the Honda Pilot, Toyota Highlander, and Volkswagen Atlas are also frequent fliers in this category. To qualify as an Uber XL vehicle, the SUV must have at least seven factory-installed seat belts (one for the driver and six for passengers). In many 2026 markets, Uber has also introduced a "High-Fidelity" XXL tier specifically for large SUVs with significant trunk space (at least 27 cubic feet) to ensure that groups with heavy luggage aren't cramped. Whether you are catching a ride in a Subaru Ascent or a Kia Telluride, the XL designation ensures that the vehicle has the physical volume and safety equipment to handle larger parties and their gear across suburban and metropolitan environments.

How much should you tip Uber drivers? Similar to tipping for other services, like getting a massage or going to the nail salon, the rule of thumb is to tip 20%, says Sokolosky. So if your ride costs $30—an average cost for a moderate trip in most cities—then you'll tip $6, for a total of $36.
