Shanghai taxi fare increases from January 15 to increase major holiday surcharges

E-Car News today learned from the Shanghai Municipal Road Transport Bureau that in order to optimize the travel structure of citizens, improve the quality of cruise taxi services, and enhance the attractiveness of drivers' careers, with the consent of the municipal government, the city will optimize the city cruise taxi fare mechanism, which will be officially implemented from 0:00 on January 15, 2022.

Cruise taxis are divided into urban cruise taxis and regional cruise taxis. In the early stage, after the hearing procedure and the opinions of all parties, a plan to optimize the freight rate mechanism of the city cruise taxi was formed.

The specific adjustment of the tariff structure is reflected in the adjustment of the freight rate of the super-minimum rental mileage from 2.5 yuan / km to 2.7 yuan / km;

The low-speed waiting fee is adjusted from 1 km over-minimum mileage rate charged every 4 minutes to 1.5-kilometer over-minimum mileage freight rate charged every 4 minutes.

Add a major holiday surcharge, a surcharge of 10 yuan / single during the Spring Festival long holiday, and a surcharge of 5 yuan / single during the National Day holiday and Labor Day (May Day small long holiday).

The management form of urban cruise taxi fares is adjusted from government pricing to government guidance prices, and the mode of "benchmark freight rates± floating range" is adopted.

According to the implementation rules for the floating tariff formulated by the Municipal Transportation Commission and the Municipal Development and Reform Commission, at this stage, at this stage, from 7:00 to 10:00 and 16:00 to 19:00 on weekdays, eligible urban cruise taxi operators can independently choose to increase the freight rate by 5%; from 10:00 to 16:00 on weekdays, eligible urban cruise taxi operators can independently choose to reduce the freight rate by 5%; freight rates do not float during other periods.

Fare fluctuations are achieved through a meter, which does not require the driver to operate manually, and the meter displays the amount that the passenger should pay. Passengers can obtain fare floating information through vehicle top light display, ride-hailing software prompts, waiting station (point) notification, etc.

The regional cruise taxi fare mechanism is optimized and improved by the relevant district governments according to the actual situation.
