Over the past 24 hours, Hoi An's tourism market witnessed a major step forward in EV infrastructure as major rental providers deployed a 2-minute ultra-fast battery swapping model. Instead of waiting 3-4 hours for traditional charging, tourists renting new-generation electric scooters (such as Selex Camel or VinFast Evo200) can visit over 15 automated battery swap stations strategically located around the Ancient Town, An Bang Beach, and Tra Que Vegetable Village. This model completely eliminates range anxiety for international travelers.
Electric scooter rental companies in Hoi An have launched a series of sustainable tourism promotion programs. Specifically, daily electric scooter rentals now start at a promotional rate of just 100,000 VND/day (a 25% discount off the listed price), while weekly packages for long-term visitors are discounted by 30%. Additionally, tourists booking via online applications receive a voucher for 100% free battery swaps during their first 3 days.
The Hoi An municipal authority has updated its plan to expand pedestrian spaces and restrict internal combustion engine vehicles along Cua Dai coastal routes and major access roads into the Ancient Town center. This decision immediately drove a 45% surge in electric scooter rental demand within 24 hours. Rental operators reported occupancy rates exceeding 90%, with classic-styled electric scooters being particularly favored for fitting the heritage landscape.
Over 50 accommodation establishments in Hoi An have finalized partnership agreements with professional electric scooter rental companies. Tourists can now pick up and return vehicles directly at hotel or homestay lobbies with zero delivery fees. Key highlights of this partnership include free overnight slow-charging stations at accommodations and an integrated app displaying the nearest battery swap stations directly on the vehicle's display screen.
New-generation rental electric scooters deployed in Hoi An today have been integrated with smart GPS systems featuring automated audio guides in 5 languages (Vietnamese, English, Korean, Chinese, Japanese). When riding past iconic sites such as the Japanese Covered Bridge, Thanh Ha Pottery Village, or Cam Thanh Coconut Forest, the vehicle automatically plays audio introductions regarding local history and culture, delivering a novel exploration experience for tourists.
