Especially when that makes it sound neck on neck when in reality Uber is trailing Didi Chuxing (formerly Didi Kuaidi) by a wide margin.

Didi Chuxing has 87.2% of the market according to research from the China Internet Network Information Center.

I feel like that is expected. Uber can't win China if they don't want it too. The Chinese state and people naturally want to produce this service (and others, i.e. search engine) themselves, they don't need or want foreign companies taking their market.

Disagree. Uber is not winning in China for one reason only - Didi is better than Uber. It has nothing to do with Chinese government or people. Chinese people love foreign brands, which are seen as being better and higher quality. They buy iPhones, go to Startbucks etc.

I see you, with a new account, post a lot of protective comments about the Chinese government, do you work there?

Why is Didi better?
