Didi Chuxing introduces English-language ride hailing app
Didi Chuxing, the largest ride-hailing service in China, has rolled out a bilingual function for its app which will cater for tourists and expatriates. The English-language version of Didi's app will be available in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou during its initial launch, and will become progressively available in other Chinese cities. The app's additional English features include a real-time, in-app text message translation service which will help drivers and passengers communicate. More than a million expatriates live and work in China, with 28 million tourists also visiting the country last year, according to Didi.
Didi will add an option for English interface in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou for its ride-hailing app, and then expand the option throughout China.
