Over the past 24 hours, Hoi An's tourism sector has seen a surge in electric scooter rentals utilizing fast battery-swapping technology. Instead of waiting 3-4 hours for a charge, tourists renting from vendors partnered with Selex Motors or VinFast can swap for a fully charged battery in just 2 minutes at automated stations near the Ancient Town and An Bang Beach. Rental prices range from 120,000 to 180,000 VND/day, ensuring uninterrupted travel.
To promote sustainable tourism, major e-scooter rental providers in Hoi An have launched attractive promotional packages. Visitors booking via mobile apps or through partner homestays/resorts receive a 15% to 20% discount voucher. Additionally, weekly rental packages drop to just 100,000 VND/day, including free 24/7 roadside battery assistance within a 15km radius.
Local authorities have updated traffic guidelines for tourists. Quiet, zero-emission electric scooters receive priority access to boundary routes around the Ancient Town during pedestrian-only hours restricted for gas-powered vehicles. Dedicated e-scooter parking zones have also been expanded on Phan Chau Trinh and Hai Ba Trung streets, featuring parking fees 50% cheaper than conventional motorbikes.
Experts recommend an ideal daily route: Hoi An Ancient Town – Tra Que Vegetable Village – An Bang Beach – Thanh Ha Pottery Village, covering approximately 25-30 km. To maximize battery efficiency, riders are advised to maintain a steady speed of 35-40 km/h, avoid rapid acceleration, and check battery status via mobile apps prior to long rides.
Latest 24-hour statistics reveal that the proportion of international tourists (particularly from Europe and South Korea) renting e-scooters in Hoi An has increased by 35% compared to last month. Key drivers include the exemption of international driving permits for models under 50cc/4kW equivalent output and a growing preference for eco-friendly travel options in this UNESCO heritage destination.
