A Richmond chauffeur with Electric Chauffeur books on the day before or the morning of for $159+. The vehicle is an Electric Chauffeur (BMW i7), the chauffeur is vetted, and the driver app-rating economy doesn't apply — it's a service, not a marketplace.
The chauffeur with Electric Chauffeur job in Richmond is one of the cases where rideshare consistently disappoints: the wrong vehicle for the load, the surge that lands during peak hour, the driver who hasn't been to the address before. A chauffeur service exists for exactly this gap. From $159, in an Electric Chauffeur (BMW i7), with a vetted driver who knows the route. That's the design choice, made deliberately and made the same way every time.
The Electric Chauffeur (BMW i7, Mercedes EQS, Audi e-tron) seats 3 passengers and 2 bags.
Richmond sits in postcode 3121. Bridge Road, the Yarra River bend and the MCG end of Punt Road. Pickups are door-to-door from the kerb or the forecourt, and where a building has no obvious entrance the chauffeur waits inside with a discreet name board.
Reckon on 26 to 38 minutes to Tullamarine across 26 km, or 60 km down to Avalon. The gap between the two ends of that range is the entire reason we leave early rather than on time. We work chauffeur transfers in Abbotsford, chauffeur transfers in South Yarra and chauffeur transfers in East Melbourne on the same roster, which matters on a day where the pickup and the drop sit in different suburbs.
Driver pulls into your forecourt or kerb — not a building two doors down. Gate code, intercom, side entrance — specify in the booking and the chauffeur handles it without you coming out.
Richmond pickups dispatch 25 minutes ahead of the slot so the chauffeur is in your forecourt before you finish locking up. Live flight tracking on the inbound — the airport pickup time moves with your arrival, no fee.
The one-way around the village strip. The school-drop chaos at 8:30am. The fastest exit from the main road versus the diversion. Our chauffeurs aren't guessing — they drive this corridor weekly.
"We booked eleven months out and changed the date twice for reasons outside our control. Both times they moved it without a fee and kept the same car. That flexibility mattered more to us in the end than the vehicle did."
— Daniel, Northcote"Rod Laver Arena for the tennis, V-Class for five. Driver dropped us close and told us exactly where he'd be afterwards, so we walked straight to the car instead of standing in the rank for forty minutes."
— Fiona, Carlton"Standing booking with TransfersX for our weekly trip to the airport. Driver knows the building, the gate, the parking. Mercedes is the same standard every time. The fare hasn't changed in 18 months. That's the chauffeur model working as designed."
— Jacqui, St KildaWhen you book a chauffeur with Electric Chauffeur in Richmond, the operation runs by the booking. Chauffeur dispatched 25 minutes ahead; Electric Chauffeur (BMW i7) detailed before the job; route pre-planned around the day's traffic; fare confirmed at $159+ all-inclusive.

The job runs to the booking, not to whatever happens to be closest.
