As self-driving travel becomes increasingly popular among Chinese tourists, Hong Kong residents embraced a new trend of northbound self-driving tours during this year's Spring Festival holiday, which ended on Tuesday.

The number of outbound self-driving tourists during the holiday increased 11 percent year-on-year, according to the 2025 Spring Festival Global Self-Driving Tour Report published on Wednesday by Zuzuche.com, a platform that provides global car rental and self-driving tour services.

Shanghai, Beijing and the provinces of Guangdong, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Sichuan, Shandong, Yunnan, Fujian and Shaanxi were the top sources of outbound self-driving tourists, the report said.
