Core Viewpoint - The rights and interests of ride-hailing drivers are increasingly under scrutiny, particularly regarding the "fixed price" model and its impact on driver income and market order [1][2][5]. Group 1: Fixed Price Model - The "fixed price" model, which provides consumers with price certainty, has received positive feedback from passengers but negative responses from drivers due to lower earnings and unpredictable operational conditions [3][4]. - Regulatory bodies have begun to implement measures to manage the "fixed price" model, requiring platforms to report low-price promotional activities and prohibiting operations below cost to maintain market order [4][5]. - Complaints from drivers indicate that the "fixed price" and "special offer" orders often lead to a situation where drivers earn less than their operational costs, contributing to a perception of unfair compensation [5][6]. Group 2: Price Decline Challenges - The controversy surrounding the "fixed price" model is linked to a general decline in fare prices, with drivers reporting that "fixed price" orders are often lower than those from dynamic pricing models [6][7]. - Factors contributing to the price decline include market saturation, increased driver supply, and the shift from a growth market to a mature market, leading to reduced subsidies from platforms [7][8]. - The competitive landscape is characterized by price wars, driven by the need for platforms to differentiate themselves in a limited growth environment, which has further exacerbated the issue of low pricing [7][8]. Group 3: Regulatory and Market Implications - The cancellation of the "fixed price" model may lead to short-term increases in travel costs and reduced order volumes for platforms, but it is expected to encourage a shift towards service quality competition in the long run [8]. - To address low-price competition, a multi-faceted approach is recommended, including establishing transparent pricing mechanisms, encouraging service innovation, and optimizing regulatory frameworks to support driver rights [8].

Core Viewpoint - The ongoing debate around the "fixed price" model in ride-hailing services highlights the need for more reasonable pricing strategies that protect driver rights while ensuring consumer satisfaction [1][2]. Group 1: Pricing Model Concerns - The "fixed price" model, which offers consumers certainty in pricing, has received mixed feedback from drivers who feel that it often results in lower earnings due to fixed rates not accounting for real-time variables like traffic [2][4]. - Regulatory bodies across various cities are taking steps to manage and regulate the "fixed price" model, with recent meetings emphasizing the need for compliance and the prohibition of price deception and predatory pricing [3][4]. Group 2: Market Dynamics - The ride-hailing market is transitioning from an incremental growth phase to a saturated market, with user growth slowing to 1.7% year-on-year as of June 2025, indicating a shift in market dynamics [7][8]. - Increased driver supply has led to a saturated market, with reports indicating that some regions are experiencing high empty vehicle rates, further complicating the pricing landscape [8]. Group 3: Competitive Landscape - The competition among platforms has intensified, with price becoming the primary competitive factor due to limited market growth opportunities, leading to a race to the bottom in pricing [9][10]. - The existence of gray areas in pricing strategies, such as discounts for corporate clients being used to undercut personal user prices, exacerbates the low-price competition issue [9]. Group 4: Future Outlook - While the cancellation of the "fixed price" model may lead to short-term increases in travel costs and reduced order volumes, it is seen as a necessary step towards fostering competition based on service quality rather than price [10]. - To address the low-price competition, a multi-faceted approach is recommended, including transparent pricing mechanisms, improved service offerings, and a focus on driver welfare and long-term rights protection [10].
