Jiading New Town of Shanghai recently launched an e-car rental project, with the first batch of rental sites expected to complete construction early this year.
The e-car rental service provides a new way of transportation that is clean and efficient. The service provider has reached cooperation agreements with a group of organizations, including the local library, real estate enterprises and highway administrations.
With the aim of promoting service to the whole area, the new town will establish more rental sites to meet local people's short-distance travel needs.
People can rent a car via the company website or a smartphone app. After booking online, the person can pick the car up at a rental site with a key card and return the car to any rental site. They can pay by credit card or online via Alipay or WeChat.
