Over the past 24 hours, reports from tourism hotspots in Hoi An indicate a massive boom in electric motorbike rental services. Aiming to build a model eco-city, local rental agencies have simultaneously upgraded their fleets, replacing traditional gasoline bikes with smart electric motorbikes. A quick survey shows that the number of tourists choosing electric motorbikes to visit Hoi An Ancient Town, An Bang Beach, and Bay Mau Coconut Forest has increased by over 35% compared to the same period last month. This is considered a breakthrough step to protect the pristine air of the ancient town.
The most notable technological highlight today is the widespread adoption of electric motorbikes using next-generation battery-swapping technology (such as Selex Motors and VinFast). Completely overcoming the disadvantage of waiting 3 to 4 hours for charging, local rental providers in Hoi An have now partnered with a network of smart battery-swapping stations. Tourists take less than 2 minutes to swap a fully charged battery at convenience stores and cafes along the main routes connecting Hoi An center to the beaches. This trend provides absolute peace of mind for travelers on long journeys without worrying about running out of power mid-way.
To stimulate green tourism for the upcoming summer travel week, electric motorbike rental businesses in Hoi An have just launched a series of attractive promotional programs. Current rental rates are highly competitive, ranging from only 120,000 VND to 180,000 VND per day. Notably, the "Combo Green Pass" package is being widely applied: tourists renting a bike for 3 days or more will get completely free battery swaps at all stations in the city, along with a free digital map integrating convenient charging and automatic battery swapping spots.
For a safe and complete trip, travel experts recommend that tourists keep in mind some important practical tips when using electric motorbikes in Hoi An. First, carefully check the remaining battery capacity on the dashboard before accepting the bike. Second, due to Hoi An's narrow streets and fixed motorized vehicle ban hours in the Ancient Town center, tourists must understand the schedule: pedestrian streets like Tran Phu, Nguyen Thai Hoc, and Bach Dang ban all motorized vehicles during specific hours. You should park your electric bike at designated parking lots outside the ancient quarter edge for only 5,000 VND to 10,000 VND per turn.
Quick feedback from the international travel community shows that many tourists from Europe, South Korea, and Japan express great delight in experiencing electric motorbike services in Hoi An. Quiet engines, zero emissions, and the convenience of the rapid battery swapping system are the biggest plus points enhancing the tourist experience. The Hoi An local government is also actively coordinating with enterprises to expand 20 more public battery-swapping stations in the next quarter, aiming to turn Hoi An into the first zero-carbon tourism city in Vietnam.
