[File Photo: qidongnews.com] A new scheme for an electric car rental service has been launched in Shanghai. Under the scheme, people can book an electric car via a smartphone app, after signing up for the service with a driver's license. The rental fee costs 15 yuan, or around 2.5 U.S. dollars, for the first 30 minutes of every trip, then 0.5 yuan for each extra minute. The maximum daily charge is 180 yuan. One local citizen gives his reaction to the trail run. "Renting the car is cheaper than calling a taxi. Also, sometimes it's very hard to find a taxi in downtown, but I can easily book one electric car via the app, and the car will be ready for me. It's really convenient." Currently, the service is already available in Shanghai's downtown and several suburban districts to attract more users. So far, 200 outlets have been set up in Shanghai and offering 220 electric cars for use. The service provider says the number will be doubled by the end of this year.
