In the past 24 hours, Hoi An's electric motorbike rental sector has seen significant growth in automated battery-swapping infrastructure. Network partners of Selex Motors and VinFast in Cam Chau and Cam Pho wards deployed 4 additional 24/7 automated swap stations. Tourists renting battery-swappable models such as the Selex Camel or supported VinFast units can now replace a drained pack in under 2 minutes instead of waiting 4 to 6 hours for standard recharging. Renters must ensure the rental shop links the swap station access account to their mobile app before departing for destinations like An Bang Beach or Bay Mau Coconut Forest.
Recent roadside assistance data indicates that rental operators in Hoi An (including Hoi An E-Bike and Green Wheel) are now using digital condition checklists. Renters must independently verify the battery's State of Health (SoH) on the digital display or integrated fleet app, ensuring it exceeds 90%. Additionally, renters must inspect the physical latch and security lock securing the battery compartment under the seat to prevent disconnections caused by cobblestone pavements or speed bumps.
Hoi An continues to strictly enforce traffic regulations to maintain its zero-emission eco-tourism agenda. Even though electric motorbikes produce zero direct emissions, they are strictly barred from Old Town core heritage corridors (Tran Phu, Nguyen Thai Hoc, Bach Dang streets) during daily pedestrian-only hours: 09:00 - 11:00 and 15:00 - 21:30. In adjacent buffer zones, maximum operating speeds are capped at 30 km/h due to high pedestrian and bicycle density. Vehicles must be parked at authorized charging lots on Phan Chu Trinh or Hoang Dieu streets.
To incentivize green mobility, major rental agencies across Hoi An launched promotional campaigns offering 15% to 25% discounts for rental terms of 3 days or longer. Standard urban models (such as the VinFast Evo200 and Yadea series) are priced between 130,000 VND and 160,000 VND per day. Models including unlimited battery-swapping subscriptions (such as Selex Camel) are priced between 180,000 VND and 220,000 VND per day, inclusive of complimentary 24/7 roadside assistance within a 15 km radius of the Ancient Town center.
High relative humidity and saline sea mist along the An Bang and Cua Dai coastline can affect exposed electrical contacts and charging terminals. When visiting coastal areas, renters should park in shaded or covered stalls, confirm that the rubber sealing caps for AC/DC charging ports are firmly seated, and inspect mechanical disc brakes prior to departure to counter slippage caused by sea spray and sandy surfaces.
