Can a car with a 2600mm wheelbase operate on Didi?

Didi's vehicle requirements are not dependent on wheelbase. Here are the detailed conditions: 1. Vehicle requirements: Didi requires the car to be less than 8 years old. 2. Driver requirements: Didi also has some requirements for drivers. Male drivers must be between 22 and 55 years old, while female drivers must be between 22 and 50 years old. Additionally, they must hold a C1 driver's license and have at least three years of driving experience. If only the car meets the requirements but the driver does not, registration is not possible. Similarly, if only the driver meets the requirements but the car does not, registration is also not possible.

I remember my first car for Didi rides had a wheelbase of around 2600mm, and it got registered successfully in some smaller cities because Didi's standards vary greatly by region. When filling in the vehicle information on the registration app, the system automatically checks eligibility based on location. For example, in third- or fourth-tier cities, cars with a wheelbase of around 2600mm, like Suzukis or compact sedans, might pass the review. However, the requirements are much stricter in big cities now, and generally, a wheelbase of at least 2650mm is needed to ensure smooth approval. If the wheelbase is slightly shorter but the car is new and has a short service life, Didi customer service might sometimes make exceptions. The key is to keep the car clean and well-maintained to improve passenger ratings and get more orders. A car with a 2600mm wheelbase is agile and easy to park, making it ideal for beginners. Don’t worry too much—just try registering first to see what happens.

I recently tried registering my car with a 2600mm wheelbase on Didi, but the outcome was a bit unclear. Didi's vehicle requirements mainly focus on the car model level and economy service. A 2600mm wheelbase is considered compact, like the Peugeot 206 or similar models, which might barely pass on many platforms. However, it's best to simulate the registration directly in the Didi app—it indicated that my car needed to meet the 2650mm standard, otherwise approval would be difficult. A friend successfully registered a car with a 2620mm wheelbase in the suburbs, so 2600mm might have a chance but with higher risk. When choosing a car, it's advisable to prioritize those with a larger wheelbase, around 2700mm, for more space, passenger comfort, and safety. Didi's policies change from time to time, so check their official website or contact customer service for the latest details. A smaller wheelbase but a newer, cleaner car can also save on fuel costs. In actual driving, this size offers light and easy handling, making it great for city navigation.

Whether a 2600mm wheelbase can be used for Didi mainly depends on the platform's policies. The wheelbase, which is the distance between the front and rear wheels, directly affects the interior space. Didi typically sets a minimum threshold, such as 2650mm, for its express service to ensure sufficient legroom for passengers and avoid complaints. Vehicles with a 2600mm wheelbase, such as some economy brand models, may be accepted in certain cities but require good condition. During the registration process, the app will check the vehicle data in real-time, and if it doesn't meet the requirements, it will prompt that registration is not possible. Choosing a vehicle with a slightly larger wheelbase, such as Japanese cars with 2650mm or more, is more reliable. Didi emphasizes that the vehicle must be no older than 6 years and in excellent condition. Operating with a 2600mm wheelbase is on the edge, so proceed with caution but don't lose hope.
