This policy immediately provided a massive boost to the two-wheeled electric vehicle market. According to quick reports from local electric motorbike rental businesses over the past 24 hours, demand for self-drive EV rentals has surged by over 150% compared to last week, with many shops running out of stock early in the morning.
Hoi An E-Ride, a local green travel tech startup, has launched a new self-drive rental package integrated with GPS tracking and a shared battery-swapping station map.

This package is optimized for international backpackers who love exploring traditional craft villages around Hoi An without worrying about the range limitations of traditional electric vehicles.
