Four points about Nagasaki Tourism Welfare Taxi

Nissan Serena illustration

1. Special large vehicles with a capacity of 6 passengers (usually 5 passengers are recommended)

  • The vehicle used is the Nissan Serena e-POWER Highway Star V second slide-up seat.

  • A total of six people can ride in the passenger seat ①, second row seats ②③, and third row seats ④⑤⑥. However, we recommend that you leave plenty of space in the third row seats ④⑥ (excluding ⑤), and that a maximum of five people be accommodated.

  • If you have travel bags, we recommend up to 4 people.

  • The left side of the second row ② is a slide-up seat .

  • The motor of the slide-up seat can withstand a load of up to 100 kg, so passengers weighing more than 100 kg cannot use the seat.

  • ② has armrests on both sides. When sitting, the person must be able to maintain a chair-like position (sitting on the seat) by themselves.

  • ② There is a slide-up seat motor installed in the rear , so ④ the legroom is a little narrower.

  • This seat cannot be used by people who have difficulty bending their knees when sitting (when the seat is rotated, if your legs are straight, they will hit the entrance).

  • If you are sitting in seats ③, ④, ⑤ and ⑥, please use the sliding door on the right.
