Over the past 24 hours, data from rental operators in Da Nang indicates a sharp increase in electric motorbike rentals among domestic and international tourists, accounting for over 45% of total personal vehicle rentals. The trend toward sustainable, zero-emission tourism is actively encouraged by local authorities, especially along coastal routes like Vo Nguyen Giap, Truong Sa, and the Son Tra Peninsula. Tourists prefer electric motorbikes for their quiet and smooth operation, allowing them to fully enjoy the fresh air of the coastal city.
One of the most notable updates is the rapid expansion of EV infrastructure. Selex Motors has officially commissioned 5 new automatic Battery Swapping Stations in key tourist areas such as Son Tra and Ngu Hanh Son districts. This technology allows tourists to swap a depleted battery for a fully charged one in under 2 minutes, completely eliminating range anxiety when traveling long distances to Hai Van Pass or Hoi An. Dat Bike’s new generation models also recorded a 30% increase in rentals due to integrated ultra-fast charging technology at partnered rest stops.
To stimulate summer tourism and promote a green lifestyle, electric motorbike rental agencies affiliated with GSM (Green SM) in Da Nang have launched their biggest promotion of the year. Specifically, when renting a VinFast Evo200 or Feliz S through online apps or at the front desks of over 50 partner hotels, tourists receive an instant 15% to 20% discount on daily rental rates (now only 120,000 VND to 150,000 VND/day). The rental package includes vehicle insurance and 24/7 roadside assistance across Da Nang city.
Technological convenience is reshaping the electric motorbike rental market in Da Nang. Local tech startups have just deployed self-service EV rental models. Tourists simply download the app, scan the QR code on the vehicle to unlock it, and start their journey. The built-in GPS system helps locate the nearest charging and battery-swapping stations while suggesting optimal tourist routes. This method not only saves time on traditional paperwork but also ensures high safety and personal data security for travelers.
The alliance between accommodation providers and green mobility services is becoming a major highlight in Da Nang. In the past 24 hours, more than 20 three-to-five-star resorts and hotels along My Khe Beach announced partnerships with electric motorbike rental companies to offer "Stay & Ride Green" combo packages. Guests booking rooms will receive one day of complimentary electric motorbike usage. This strategic move aims to enhance customer experience while positioning Da Nang as a leading smart and green tourism destination in Southeast Asia.
