Most of the news you see says, “the jiangsu network is saturated and officially discouraged”. But what exactly does saturation mean? Is it true that all people who want to enter the profession should give up completely? This matter needs to be viewed from three different dimensions in order to be judged。
From the perspective of job seekers: the cruel reality of data
First, the most intuitive data. 55,000 nanjing-compliant vehicles and 165,000 certified drivers, with a ratio of 3:1 supply and demand, equivalent to 1 car for every 3 drivers. The standing county fleet of 23,000 vehicles corresponds to 496 000 licensed drivers; even the yunport drivers have an average of 12-14 hours online and a net monthly income of only $3,000 to $4,000, which is well below the national average of $6215。
What does that mean? In most of jiangsu's cities, entry into business means spending 100,000-20,000 dollars to buy or rent a car, working more than 12 hours a day, and earning less than delivering a delivery — an average of $8325 per month for the expatriates — and just about $2,000 for the preceding period. For job-seekers, this is not an option “to make more money on a different track”。
From the perspective of policymakers: the regulatory logic behind saturated early warning
Why does the official warning go on and on? Not to “discourage”, but to “correct”. The city of nanjing has set up the country's first dynamic power control mechanism to monitor the three core indicators of “compliance network average daily order fluctuations” and “syllable daily number” “syllable taxi miles utilization” on a monthly basis, allowing for flexible start-up of new capacity based on data changes。
At the same time, for the first time in nanjing, local legislation made it clear that the driver's hourly salary was not less than the minimum wage, requiring the platform to “ensure each and everyone” occupational injury insurance. Proponents argue that this is fine governance, while critics point out that specific regulatory thresholds are not open and that drivers are still unable to predict market trends. The direction of the policy is good, but in the short term it will not resolve the structural contradiction of “single cars”。
From the point of view of the search for opportunity: gaps in saturated markets
“saturation” is not the same as “no chance”, but the opportunity is hidden in a disaggregated scene. Cross-city windmills represent a breakthrough: an average annual compound growth rate of 41. 56 per cent in the pan-turkish region, over 60 per cent of new energy vehicle-type orders in the jiangsu region and tens of thousands of daily cross-city travel needs throughout the country still rely on informal vehicles. There is also a transportation gap in remote townships in the districts: neither the cruise taxi nor the internet bus in zhong county covers rural needs such as catching up, access to health care, etc。
In addition, the operational cost advantage of the new energy grid is clear: the low grain price of the jiangsu recharge pole is as low as 0. 2805 kwh, reducing fuel vehicle energy costs by more than 60 per cent. But beware that windmills are a “non-profit combination” and that excessive operation may be considered illegal。
Horizontal comparison: internet approximation value does not deserve a “jumping slot”
If we compare internet traffic, takeout, delivery together (data 2025):
Input output is higher than that of internet-based vehicles. But in many people's perception, the gap between the “decent” of the internet, the freedom, the low threshold — and the reality — is what is justified by the “deepening”。
Integration: the saturation of the jiangsu network car market is real and comprehensive, especially for job-seekers who want to enter full-time employment, the core cities (nanjing, suzhou, no-sin, changzhou) and the third-line cities (even yunbong) are facing intense competition and a decline in income, and it is recommended that priority be given to other blue-collar occupations or to the subdivisions。
But there is still some room for operation if you have a car, if you can take advantage of a gap between a trans-city windmill, a particular time in the county, or if you can get a new energy car price bonus. But the premise is that the costs of these traps are far higher than expected: not to buy them as renters, not to trust in the “month-to-month” propaganda, and not to operate without a license。
Official efforts were being made to optimize security, but the reversal of supply and demand fundamentals in the market would take time. Ultimately, it depends on whether you have the patience and risk resistance to survive。
