US EditionAlibaba mapping logs record for daily users on first day of China holiday
Alibaba’s Amap set a new record with 360 million daily users as AI features and subsidies boosted local service engagement during China’s extended National Day holiday.
- On October 1, 2025, the opening day of China’s extended National Day holiday, Alibaba’s mapping service Amap achieved a new peak by attracting 360 million users in a single day.
- This surge followed the National Day holiday extension to eight days and Alibaba's recent launch of AI-powered features like 'Street Stars' and the assistant Xiaogao.
- Amap's 'Street Stars' uses AI to rank restaurants, hotels, and tourist spots, directly challenging Meituan's Dianping platform while offering users 1 billion yuan in subsidies for ride-hailing and in-store services.
- On October 1, China’s national railway set a new single-day record by transporting 23.13 million passengers, an increase of nearly 8% compared to last year, while Alibaba’s AI assistant Xiaogao processed over 2.6 billion interactions, highlighting increased travel and app usage during the holiday period.
- This growth contributed to a 4% rise in Alibaba's shares and a JPMorgan target price increase to HK$240 , implying strong investor confidence linked to Amap’s local services expansion and AI integration.
