In the last 24 hours, data from service providers in Hoi An shows a 35% spike in searches and bookings for electric motorcycles compared to the previous month. This stems from the city government's commitment to developing Hoi An into an 'Eco-Cultural-Tourism Urban Area.' Major rental units like Hoi An EV Rental and Green Mobility reported a 95% utilization rate. Tourists, especially those from Europe and South Korea, are prioritizing models like VinFast Evo200 and Feliz S due to their noise-free and zero-emission features, perfect for the town's tranquil atmosphere.
A major turning point is the expansion of VinFast-affiliated partners. Over 200 new VinFast Evo200 units were delivered to hotels and homestays in An Hoi and Cam Chau areas for direct rental. With a range of up to 200km per charge, these bikes allow tourists to explore further spots like the Bay Mau Coconut Forest or Thanh Ha Pottery Village without range anxiety. Rental prices remain stable between 150,000 VND and 200,000 VND per day, comparable to gas bikes but offering a much smoother experience.
To stimulate sustainable tourism, local rental businesses have launched major promotions. Customers booking via apps or websites receive a 15% discount for rentals of 2 days or more. Furthermore, the 'Electric Bike + Coconut Forest Ticket + Dinner Buffet' combo has become a best-seller in the past 24 hours. These programs include 24/7 battery rescue and comprehensive travel insurance, ensuring absolute peace of mind for renters.
Infrastructure is key for electric mobility. Today, the first phase of installing 10 new fast-charging stations at public parking lots around the Ancient Town and An Bang Beach was completed. These stations allow a 20% to 80% charge in just 30-45 minutes. Additionally, 'Battery Swap' services are being piloted at major stops, allowing customers to exchange depleted batteries for full ones in just 2 minutes, completely eliminating range anxiety.
According to the latest meeting between the Quang Nam Tourism Association and transport businesses, a specific roadmap has been proposed to phase out internal combustion engine (ICE) bikes in the core area. Rental businesses receive financial support and tax incentives when switching to electric fleets. In the last 24 hours, five more large businesses in Minh An ward signed a memorandum of understanding to transition 100% to electric bikes by Q3 2024, confirming Hoi An's leading position in Vietnam's green transport trend.
