What TUHU Car does

China's largest online-to-offline platform for car maintenance, repair and tire/parts sales through franchised service centers.

Most revenue comes from selling tyres, oil and parts, both through its app to car owners and in bulk to its network of franchised workshops, which fit the products and use its supply chain and software; services and franchise fees are smaller.

In one line: A Chinese online auto-service platform.
