According to the latest statistics from travel agencies in Hoi An over the past 24 hours, sustainable tourism trends are dominating. Approximately 82% of international and domestic tourists visiting the ancient town have prioritized electric motorbikes as their primary mode of transportation over traditional gasoline-powered ones. This transition not only helps preserve the peaceful atmosphere and clean air of the world cultural heritage site but also offers a smooth, noise-free travel experience when navigating through small alleys.
The most prominent news today is the collaboration between smart electric motorbike startup Selex Motors and major rental partners in Hoi An. The system has officially launched 10 automated battery-swapping stations positioned along major roads leading to An Bang Beach, Tra Que Vegetable Village, and the outskirts of the ancient town. Tourists renting next-gen electric motorbikes no longer have to worry about 3-to-4-hour charging times. With a simple QR code scan taking under 120 seconds at a station, users can swap a depleted battery for a fully charged one and continue their unlimited exploration.
To stimulate green tourism this summer, a coalition of electric bike rental shops in Hoi An has announced a massive promotion program called 'Green Summer'. Tourists booking electric motorbikes online or via rental apps will receive an instant 20% discount on daily rental rates (now only 120,000 VND to 150,000 VND/vehicle/day depending on the model). Notably, the program also includes a free travel insurance package, standard helmets, and 24/7 on-site technical support throughout the rental period.
A highlight in services recorded over the past 24 hours is the tight integration model between over 50 homestays and resorts in Cam Thanh and An Bang with electric motorbike rental agencies. Tourists staying at these partner accommodations will enjoy free doorstep vehicle delivery without needing to deposit cash or identification documents. All terms and payments are integrated directly into the room bill, providing maximum convenience for self-guided travelers.
Great news for the eco-friendly community: the Hoi An People's Committee has announced a new pilot traffic flow scheme. Accordingly, certain routes leading into the core heritage zone will establish special priority hours exclusively for pedestrians, bicycles, and electric motorbikes. Petrol vehicles will be restricted during peak hours from 17:00 to 21:30 daily. This new regulation has immediately caused a surge in demand and advance bookings for electric motorbike rental services, proving it is the smartest and most fashionable transport option in Hoi An today.
