Black car service in Memphis starts at $170+/hr for a Mercedes-Benz S-Class sedan and $120+/hr for a Cadillac Escalade ESV, with no-surge pricing locked at booking.

Uber Black in Memphis surges 3–4x during the Memphis in May International Festival (three weekends in May, 115,000+ total attendees), the World Championship Barbecue Cooking Contest (same month, 100,000+ BBQ fans), and Memphis Grizzlies NBA playoff games at FedExForum. When all three overlap in May, rideshare surge pricing becomes unpredictable. Detailed Drivers flat rates stay exactly the same — every day of the year.
