  4. Will you be in a tier-1 city for most of the trip?

    Q4

    YES

    DiDi (app). Tier-1 coverage (Beijing / Shanghai / Guangzhou / Shenzhen) is the universal baseline — outside it the secondary option often wins.

    路边出租车. If none of the above apply, 路边出租车 is the safer runner-up for your case.
