When it comes to planning a group travel, family trips, or corporate tours in India, the first two names that come to mind are Tempo Traveller and the new and modern option Urbania. Tempo Traveller has been loved by people for many years, but now Urbania is becoming the first choice of travelers because of its luxury, modern design, and comfort.
In this blog, we will know why Urbania Van vs Tempo Traveller is becoming the most discussed choice, why Urbania is proving to be better and especially how Maharaja Urbania gives a premium travel experience.
Comparing the Design and Looks
The Tempo Traveller has a basic and old design. The outside looks very similar to a standard van.
The Urbania looks much more stylish and modern than this. Its look is exactly like a premium bus or mini-coach, which gives a feeling of class even on the road.
Seating Comfort
The real fun of travelling is only possible when the journey goes smoothly or in comfort; here, seating plays a crucial role in this.
The standard Tempo Traveller offers basic seating, which can get tiring on long journeys. The Maharaja Tempo Traveller upgrades this with luxury seating and added comfort.
However, Urbania takes it even further, featuring pushback seats, more legroom, and superior seating arrangements, surpassing even the Maharaja Tempo Traveller. For travelers who want extra comfort, space, and a premium travel experience, Urbania is the ultimate choice. Urbania has luxury seating, which gives you the comfort of a first-class flight.
Space and legroom
The Tempo Traveller is spacious but feels crowded on long journeys.
The Urbania is designed in such a way that every passenger feels a separate space and privacy. There is enough distance between the seats, which provides good legroom.
Technology and Features
The Tempo Traveller does not have many features apart from the basic AC and music system.
Urbania has modern features like –
- Climate-controlled AC
- LED lighting
- Charging ports
- Better sound system
- Entertainment screen (in some variants)
- Massage massage chair
- Remote-operated electronic gadgets
All these make your journey even more pleasant and comfortable.
Ride experience
Tempo Traveller is good for long journeys, but the journey can be a bit tiring due to bad roads and the normal suspension.
Urbania offers advanced suspension and a smooth ride experience. Even on rough roads, passengers feel less tired.
Safety Features
Safety is very important in today’s times.
Tempo Traveller has basic safety.
Urbania has airbags, an ABS braking system and modern safety standards.
This makes the journey not only comfortable but also safe.
Premium Appeal

Especially when it comes to corporate events, weddings or VIP travel, choosing Urbania reflects the status and class of the traveller.
