Over the past 24 hours, the electric motorbike market in Hoi An has recorded a major breakthrough with operators expanding the next-generation battery-swapping network. A strategic partnership between smart EV manufacturer Selex Motors and local accommodation systems (homestays, villas) in Cam Chau and An Bang has officially launched with 10 new automated battery-swapping stations. This technology allows rental customers to swap a depleted battery for a fully charged one in less than 2 minutes, completely eliminating charging anxiety and optimizing tourists' time exploring the heritage city.
To capture the wave of domestic and international tourists during peak season, major electric motorbike rental services in Hoi An have simultaneously rolled out large-scale promotions. Specifically, rentals utilizing VinFast Evo200 and Feliz S models are offering discounts of 15% to 20% for group rentals of 3 or more bikes, or long-term rentals (from 3 days). Current rental rates range from VND 120,000 to VND 180,000 per day depending on the model, including voluntary travel insurance and 24/7 on-site technical support.
Hoi An authorities have recently issued directives encouraging green transportation in the core heritage zone. This move immediately triggered a strong shift from traditional petrol motorbikes to electric motorbikes among tourists. Rental shops reported a booking surge of over 35% compared to the same period last week. Tourists prioritize electric motorbikes for their silent operation, zero emissions, and lack of noise, perfectly aligning with the peaceful and ancient atmosphere of Hoi An.
The trend of digitalizing electric motorbike rental services in Hoi An is growing rapidly. Within the past 24 hours, several rental startups successfully trialed smart IoT-integrated locking systems on rental e-bikes. Tourists no longer need to visit physical shops or complete complicated paperwork. They can simply download the app, scan the QR code on the bike to unlock, pay online, and return the bike at any partner parking spot in the city. The integrated GPS system also suggests optimized travel routes and warns tourists of restricted traffic zones.
Travel agencies in Hoi An have begun collaborating closely with electric motorbike rental businesses to launch "Eco-Tour" bundled packages. Customers purchasing the combo receive an e-motorbike with a fully charged battery, a digital map of charging/swapping stations, and tickets for eco-friendly activities such as making recycled crafts at Tra Que vegetable village or paddling basket boats in Bay Mau coconut forest. This integrated service model not only enhances the tourist experience but also actively contributes to building a sustainable green tourism brand for Hoi An.
