China’s largest ride-hailing service, DiDi Chuxing Technology Co., is expanding to enable ride-sharing customers to connect with public transportation options.
DiDi says it is launching the service in nearly 100 cities in China, including Beijing and Shanghai. The company’s app will present users with several options to take them to their destination with routes that combine shared car rides with buses, subways and bike sharing.
