Why Grab is a cheaper option in Singapore
It appears to be the cheaper option for 5km and 20 km travel.
iPrice has conducted a research to identify the cheapest mode of transportation between the two most popular ride-hailing applications and local taxis, for each country across Southeast Asia.
It compared the data for both short (5km) and long (20km) distance, showing both the overall fare and its different price components (base fare, cost of distance and cost of time).
In Singapore, Grab appears to be a cheaper option for both 5km and 20 km distance at US$4.3 (S$6.13) and US$11.6 (S$16.54).
