In the past 24 hours, Selex Motors announced a roadmap to strengthen its battery swapping station network at key tourist spots in Da Nang, such as Ngu Hanh Son and Son Tra Districts. This is a strategic move to support large-scale electric motorbike rental agencies. Instead of waiting 3-8 hours for a charge, tourists renting Selex Camel bikes can now swap batteries in less than 2 minutes at automated stations. This 'Battery-as-a-Service' (BaaS) model is completely solving the anxiety of running out of power while visiting locations far from the city center.
According to major electric motorbike rental shops in the My Khe beach area, the Dat Bike Quantum series is becoming the top choice for self-sufficient tours to Ba Na Hills or Ban Co Peak. With a travel distance of up to 270km on a single full charge, rental units are increasing this model's inventory by 30%. Shop owners say the fast-charging feature (100km in just 1 hour of charging) is the key factor in optimizing rental frequency and bringing in more stable revenue compared to traditional gasoline bikes.
The electric taxi and motorbike firm Xanh SM has just activated a special discount program exclusively for tourists staying at partner hotels in Da Nang. Accordingly, when renting VinFast electric motorbikes (Feliz S or Evo200) via the app or reception desk, tourists receive an immediate 15% discount on daily rental rates and a 20% discount code for Xanh SM Taxi rides. This program aims to promote sustainable mobility trends, helping Da Nang achieve its smart and eco-friendly city goals sooner.
A prominent emerging trend in the last 24 hours is the appearance of specialized electric vehicle rental chains serving the Korean market in the An Thuong area. These units not only provide vehicles but also integrate multi-language support systems and comprehensive travel insurance into the rental price. In particular, stylish electric models (Vespa style or mini scooters) are favored to serve the 'check-in' and photography needs of international youth visiting Da Nang.
Latest market reports show a clear shift from the home-charging electric vehicle model to the fast battery swapping model. Partnerships between battery technology companies and convenience store chains in Da Nang to place swapping stations are creating a dense network. This not only gives renters peace of mind but also reduces operating costs for rental shop owners (no need for large space for centralized charging), thereby bringing electric bike rental prices down to a level that competes directly with gasoline bikes (only from 120,000 VND - 180,000 VND/day).
