Didi reintroduces driver subsidies as new ride-hailing price war looms

Chinese ride-hailing giant Didi Chuxing is gearing up for another costly price war by reintroducing subsidies for drivers, Caixin reports. The company has quietly introduced a special membership card scheme in seven cities, including Shanghai and Beijing, where drivers holding the card will be able to receive extra monthly pay, a subsidy in all but name, sources told Caixin.
