Answer 1

I suggest you to use StaggeredGridLayoutmanager for your recycler view.

It's the closest approach to achieve your layout.

You can find the docs here. And working example can be found here.

Answer 3

Based on the type of bus choice, switch between GridLayoutManager, and StaggeredGridLayoutManager.

For all the types, use a header view with just a steering wheel icon right aligned.

1. For the seater-only type:
   • use a 4 span GridLayoutManager
   • use an item decorator for providing the spacing between the 2^nd and 3^rd column
   • use a footer view with 5 seats view
2. For the mixed-type:
   • use a 3 span StaggeredGridLayoutManager
   • use an item decorator for providing the spacing between the 1^st and 2^nd column.
   • use different item type for the sleeper seats (see: onCreateViewHolder(parent,viewType))
3. For the sleeper-only type.
   • use a 4 span GridLayoutManager
   • use an item decorator for providing the spacing between the 1^st and 2^nd column

Do you have some sample or anything else..i am not able to find anything like it... – Clyte

@tufan, first lesson on SO: don't ask for code. – Amphibole

okay ...but can you tell me in your 3rd step use an item decorator for providing the spacing between the 1st and 2nd column..how to do it – Clyte

The answer here is enough to help you out with your layout. If you don't understand what the answer is taking about, then you'd better learn more about RecyclerView. There are a lot of tutorials out there. – Amphibole
