In the past 24 hours, Selex Motors officially announced the addition of 3 new battery swapping points located on the route connecting Da Nang and Hoi An. This is a major turning point for the Selex Camel electric motorcycle rental service. Instead of taking 3-8 hours to fully charge, tourists renting these bikes now spend less than 2 minutes swapping batteries at partner convenience stores and gas stations. This technology completely eliminates 'range anxiety' when traveling long distances from Da Nang center to Hoi An Ancient Town. The system allows users to manage everything via a smartphone app, displaying the exact location and number of available batteries at each station.
Recorded at major motorcycle rental facilities in Hoi An, the Dat Bike Quantum series is becoming a 'phenomenon' thanks to its impressive range of up to 270km per charge. Today, many agencies launched a 24-hour trial rental package with promotional prices starting from only 250,000 VND. A special feature of this service is on-site rescue support and the provision of a portable fast charger, allowing the bike to reach full capacity in just 1 hour at cafes with standard outlets. This is a new trend for tourists who love exploring further destinations like the Bay Mau Coconut Forest or Cu Lao Cham (after transport by boat).
VinFast electric motorcycle rental dealers and partners in Hoi An (specifically the Evo200 and Vento S models) have just launched a 15% discount campaign for groups of 3 or more. According to the latest figures, the number of EV bookings for summer vacations has increased by 40% compared to last week. Rental prices range from 120,000 to 180,000 VND/day. These models are favored for their stylish design, perfect for check-in photos in the Ancient Town's alleys, and their smooth, silent operation, aligning with the 'Hoi An - Engine-Noise-Free City' goal pursued by the authorities.
A quick survey in the last 24 hours shows that over 30% of homestay owners in the Cam Chau and Cam An areas have signed contracts to provide electric motorcycles directly at the accommodation instead of traditional petrol bikes. This trend not only helps protect the environment but also brings economic benefits due to low operating costs. Combined rental packages (Combo Room + EV) are being promoted on platforms like Booking.com and Agoda, making it easy for tourists to access green transportation upon check-in. Customers using this service are often gifted maps of free charging stations around the city.
To ensure tourist safety, Hoi An authorities have collaborated with electric vehicle rental units to issue a new set of guidelines for using electric motorcycles. It focuses on identifying prohibited zones (walking hours) and instructing how to use regenerative braking to optimize battery life while cruising along coastal roads like Cua Dai or An Bang. Rental units are now required to provide standardized helmets and a 24/7 technical support hotline in both English and Vietnamese to ensure the best experience for international guests.
