Uber继续在印度大举扩张

Uber is set to launch operations in another seven Indian cities.Uber将在印度另外7个城市开展业务。The move marks the biggest simultaneous expansion outside the US in the ride-sharing group’s history and underlining its attempts to keep pace with cut-price local rival Ola.此举标志着这家上下班共享公司自正式成立以来在美国以外规模仅次于的实时扩展，也突显出Uber企图跟上印度本地低价微信应用于Ola的步伐。The new push comes amid a period of rapid investment for the San Francisco based company, and confirms India as its largest market by number of cities served outside the US — bringing the total to 18.这家总部坐落于旧金山的公司正处于一个较慢投资期，这一新举措印证了一点：根据通车服务的城市的数量计算出来，印度是Uber在美国以外的仅次于市场。
