P4 Outdoor Parking Lot

60 RMB per day is the headline here

P4 Outdoor Parking Lot sits about 1.5 km north of the PVG terminals and runs at 5 RMB per hour with a 60 RMB daily cap for small cars. That’s roughly half of the 110 RMB daily cap at P1 and P2, so the math swings hard in P4’s favor once you’re past a single day.

The lot works as PVG’s long-term outdoor option, with a free shuttle running 24/7 to both T1 and T2. Figure about 5 minutes on the shuttle once you’re on board, plus a few minutes’ wait time in normal conditions. It’s open around the clock, so late-night arrivals and very early departures are covered without needing a taxi back to your car.

Pricing is straightforward: 5 RMB per hour, capped at 60 RMB per calendar day, which keeps a 5-day trip at around 300 RMB instead of 550 RMB in the closer terminal lots. Payment in the public lots at PVG usually runs through the standard toll booths at exit, so have a working payment method ready, especially if you’re driving a rental or a non-local-plate car.

One edge P4 has over other PVG lots: Trip.com explicitly calls out EV charging spots and accessible spaces here. If you’re driving an electric vehicle, this is one of the few PVG parking areas with clear English-language confirmation that charging is available on-site, which removes some guesswork compared with P1/P2.

Trip.com’s own writers call P4 the go-to for trips longer than one day, mainly because that 60 RMB cap scales better than P1/P2’s 110 RMB once you hit two nights or more. Regulars accept the shuttle tradeoff: add 15–20 minutes of buffer compared with walking out of T1 or T2 straight into P1 or P2.

Practical tip: Park closer to the shuttle stop if you can, then snap a photo of your row and section; it’s a big outdoor lot about 1.5 km from the terminals, and that picture saves you hunting for the car when you land back at PVG tired and jet-lagged.
