In the past 24 hours, the Hoi An tourism market has recorded a strong shift toward electric scooters utilizing next-generation battery-swapping technology. Instead of waiting 3 to 8 hours for a full charge at traditional stations, tourists now prioritize rental agencies partnered with smart battery-swapping networks (such as Selex Motors or Dat Bike). This technology allows users to swap for a fully charged battery in under 2 minutes at automated stations located around the ancient town's outskirts and main roads leading to An Bang and Cua Dai beaches, ensuring uninterrupted journeys.
In response to the "Hoi An - Eco-tourism and Clean Air City" initiative, major local e-scooter rental companies have simultaneously launched attractive promotional packages today. Notably, the "Green Travel" program offers an immediate 15% discount for customers booking in advance via websites or mobile apps of affiliated partners. Furthermore, combo packages for rentals of 48 hours or more include a free digital map of green routes in Hoi An and free vehicle delivery to hotels/homestays within a 5km radius.
