Over the past 24 hours, Hoi An's green tourism infrastructure marked a major milestone as local electric scooter rental operators, in partnership with Selex Motors and Dat Bike, officially deployed 8 additional 24/7 automated battery-swapping stations. Located strategically around the perimeter of the Ancient Town and along the An Bang - Cua Dai coastal route, this next-gen technology allows tourists to exchange a depleted battery for a fully charged one in under 2 minutes, eliminating range anxiety and charging downtime while exploring suburban attractions.
The Hoi An People's Committee announced a trial green transit corridor prioritizing electric scooters and e-bikes on routes connecting the city center to Tra Que Vegetable Village and Cam Thanh Nipa Palm Forest. Following this initiative, self-drive e-scooter rental bookings among international tourists jumped by 35% compared to last week. Zero-emission, whisper-quiet electric vehicles are highlighted as the ideal transport mode for preserving the serene atmosphere of traditional craft villages.
To stimulate green summer travel, a coalition of 15 local e-scooter rental providers introduced the 'Green Journey Hoi An' promotion package. Rental rates for smart e-scooters equipped with GPS and eSIM range from 120,000 VND to 160.000 VND per day (approx. $5 - $6.5 USD). Tourists renting for 3 consecutive days or more receive unlimited free battery swaps throughout their trip, alongside a complimentary digital eco-map and safety helmets. Free door-to-door vehicle delivery is provided to hotels and homestays within a 7km radius.
A contactless e-scooter rental model powered by a mobile app officially surged across Hoi An today. Travelers can easily unlock and start vehicles by scanning a QR code at automated rental hubs. The app fully supports Vietnamese, English, and Korean, featuring real-time navigation that pinpoints nearby battery-swap points and alerts users to pedestrian-only zones in the Ancient Town. This system reduces check-in procedures by up to 80% compared to conventional rental methods.
Latest 24-hour industry data from the Quang Nam Tourism Association reveals that over 60% of vehicle rental businesses in Hoi An are actively replacing conventional gasoline motorbikes with swappable-battery electric models. This transition lowers operating and maintenance costs by 45% for rental owners while directly driving Hoi An's goal toward becoming a Carbon-Balanced Tourism City. Modern e-scooters with 1500W–3000W motors, strong hill-climbing capabilities, and a range of up to 100km per charge have become the top choice for Korean and European travelers visiting the UNESCO heritage destination.
