How much is a private car from San Diego to a Padres game at Petco Park?

Elite Green Transportation runs a flat round-trip metro rate to Miami Marlins at Petco Park (Saturday, September 19, 2026): $120 in the BMW i7 (up to 2 passengers), $160 in the Rivian R1S (up to 4) or $200 in the Cadillac Escalade IQ-L (up to 5). Flat, locked at booking, no surge and no parking pass needed. Compared with downtown Petco lot and street parking plus the walk, the per-seat cost is built to keep fans coming to the ballpark.

What time does the EGT car drop me off for the 5:40 PM first pitch?

Every round trip includes two drop-off choices for the 5:40 PM first pitch on Saturday, September 19, 2026: an early drop at 4:10 PM (90 minutes before first pitch, time for a beer and your seats) or a standard drop at 4:55 PM (45 minutes before). For the ride home you choose a beat-the-rush pickup at the final out or the 7th-inning stretch, or an unwind pickup 30 to 45 minutes after the game. Door-to-curb both ways at the Petco gates, driver staged for your return.

Is a private car cheaper than parking at Petco Park?

Downtown Petco parking runs roughly the lot rate plus time, and street parking near the park is about $10/hour during games — before the walk. EGT's flat round trip from San Diego splits across the vehicle: at $200 for up to five in the Escalade IQ-L, the per-seat cost lands near what solo parking plus fuel costs, with no walk and a guaranteed ride home.

Every booking is a true round trip with a flexible window on both ends — tell us which you want when you reserve.

Getting there — pick your drop-off

Early — 4:10 PM (90 minutes before first pitch): grab a beer, settle into your seats, and soak in the ballpark before the crowd builds.
Standard — 4:55 PM (45 minutes before first pitch): straight in, minimal waiting.

Heading home — pick your pickup

Beat the rush: from the 7th-inning stretch or the moment the final out lands — out ahead of the crowd.
Unwind: 30–45 minutes after the final out, once the gates and lots clear.

Door-to-curb both ways at the Petco gates. Your driver is staged for the return — no post-game ride-share surge, no walk to a lot.

Cheaper and easier than parking

Downtown Petco parking means a lot rate plus the walk, and street parking near the park runs about $10/hour during games. Split the EGT flat rate across your group — at $200 for up to five in the IQ-L, the per-seat cost lands near what one driver pays to park and fuel up, except nobody walks and the ride home is guaranteed. One of the busiest San Diego sports Saturdays of the fall — multiple stadium events citywide share the evening. Downtown lots price for it; the flat rate does not move.
