Over the past 24 hours, the tourism map of the ancient capital of Hue has witnessed a powerful transformation driven by green transportation. To preserve the ancient heritage spaces and reduce emissions, Hue city is becoming a hotspot for next-generation electric scooter rental services, integrated with modern battery-swapping technology. Here is a synthesis of the top 5 outstanding news and trends recorded recently.
To completely eliminate tourists' anxiety about running out of battery, leading e-scooter rental companies in Hue have deployed over 15 automated battery-swapping stations within the last 24 hours. Strategically located around the Imperial Citadel, Thien Mu Pagoda, Tu Duc Tomb, and Dong Ba Market, these stations allow tourists to swap a depleted battery for a fully charged one in less than 2 minutes via a mobile app, entirely bypassing the 3-to-4-hour charging wait.
To stimulate green tourism for the year-end season, an alliance of e-scooter rental providers in Hue has launched a massive promotion starting today. Domestic and international tourists booking via mobile apps will enjoy a completely free first hour of rental, along with a 30% discount for subsequent days. Notably, the combo package "E-Scooter Rental + Heritage Entrance Tickets" has become the most sought-after service today.
Quick statistics from accommodations and travel agencies in Hue over the past 24 hours reveal that foreign tourists, particularly from South Korea, renting smart e-scooters soared by 150% compared to last week. Vehicles integrated with GPS, multilingual audio guides (English, Korean, Vietnamese), and travel insurance are highly favored for their ultimate safety and convenience.
Two giants in Vietnam's electric vehicle industry have officially partnered with local tour operators in Hue to add over 500 smart e-scooters (such as Selex Camel and VinFast Evo200) into the tourism market. The introduction of high-performance, smooth-riding, and environmentally friendly e-scooters allows tourists to easily cruise along the Huong River or cross Truong Tien Bridge effortlessly.
The Hue city government has just announced a draft encouraging 100% of accommodations, homestays, and hotels to equip charging ports or affiliate with e-scooter rental points. The transition from traditional gasoline motorbikes to battery-swapping e-scooters not only helps tourists save on travel costs (only 1/3 of gas costs) but also positions Hue as a leading green and sustainable destination in Southeast Asia.
