In Southeast Asia, we’ve been spoiled with choice for cheap private transportation since startups like Uber and Grab took off.
The intense competition among newcomers in the transportation business, as well as with the incumbent taxi and car rental industry, has led to attractive prices for consumers.
People from Thailand to the Philippines can now order a car at any time of day and get to their destination at a cheaper price than with a regular taxi.
Price comparison site iPrice conducted a study comparing the rates of Grab, Uber, and local taxi companies in various countries in the region to find out which operator is the cheapest of them all.
Turns out it depends on where you are and how far you need to go.
The rates don’t account for surge pricing – special rates applied by Uber and Grab when demand is high.
