Daimler Mobility and Geely Technology Group, a subsidiary of Zhejiang Geely Holding Group, unveiled its premium ride-hailing provider StarRides in China with inaugural services to begin in Hangzhou this month.

The ride-hailing joint venture will begin operating in Hangzhou, a city of more than 10 million people that is home to leading Chinese companies including Geely Holding, and some of the country’s leading technology businesses.
