Over the past 24 hours, the electric motorbike rental market in Hue marked a significant leap forward with the expansion of Selex Motors' smart battery swapping network, in partnership with hotels and homestays around the Imperial City and Perfume River areas. Unlike traditional charging models that take 3 to 8 hours, the 2-minute battery swapping solution allows tourists to seamlessly explore distant attractions like Tu Duc Tomb, Minh Mang Tomb, or Lap An Lagoon without interruption. The automated battery swapping kiosks operate 24/7 via a mobile app, providing maximum convenience for both domestic and international travelers.
Rental agencies and partners in Hue have just deployed over 300 additional VinFast Evo200 and Feliz S electric scooters. The new fleet features powerful motors with a travel range of up to 205 km per full charge, perfectly suited for inter-district travel and gentle hilly terrains around the ancient capital. The rental process is streamlined online: no high cash deposit required, quick passport/ID verification, and instant vehicle pickup at Hue Railway Station, Phu Bai Airport, or downtown hotels.
To boost green tourism during the peak season, electric motorbike rental companies in Hue have simultaneously launched attractive promotional packages in the past 24 hours. Notably, the "Explore the Ancient Capital - Worry-Free Price" campaign offers a 25% discount for bookings of 2 days or more via mobile apps. Rental rates now range from just 100,000 VND to 150,000 VND/day (including insurance and one free battery swap). Furthermore, tourists receive a complimentary digital map integrated with authentic Hue culinary spots and green check-in locations.
To enhance user experience, new-generation rental electric motorbikes in Hue are now equipped with IoT technology and smart display dashboards. The smart screen connects via Bluetooth to smartphones, displaying visual turn-by-turn directions to historic sites and traditional craft villages (such as Thuy Xuan Incense Village and Tay Ho Conical Hat Village) without requiring riders to hold their phones. Remote safety alert systems and 24/7 automatic roadside assistance are also activated to guarantee absolute safety for travelers.
The Department of Tourism of Thua Thien Hue Province has officially approved a collaboration plan with electric vehicle rental enterprises to standardize green tourism service quality. The objective by the end of 2024 is for at least 40% of tourist rental motorbikes in Hue City to transition to zero-emission electric vehicles. Support policies include dedicated free parking zones for electric motorbikes at heritage sites and the installation of 50 additional solar-powered charging/battery swapping stations along key tourism routes.
