In the past 24 hours, the Da Nang tourism market has recorded a powerful explosion in self-drive electric motorcycle rental services from Xanh SM (GSM). Featuring the new generation VinFast Evo200 fleet, this service is becoming the top choice for tourists wishing to explore the Son Tra Peninsula and My Khe coastal roads. The highlight is the highly competitive rental price, ranging from only 120,000 VND to 200,000 VND for 24 hours of use. A charging station network covering the city with over 150 points at hotels, cafes, and public parking lots ensures tourists have complete peace of mind regarding energy.
In high-traffic tourist areas such as An Thuong and Vo Nguyen Giap streets, many traditional motorcycle rental owners have begun replacing gasoline bikes with high-end electric models like the VinFast Feliz S and Klara S2. According to surveys, the operating cost of electric vehicles is 80% lower than gasoline vehicles, allowing shops to offer attractive promotion packages like 'Rent 2 days, get 4 hours free.' Tourists highly appreciate EVs for their quiet operation and zero emissions, which are particularly suited to the fresh air of the coastal city of Da Nang.
A technological breakthrough recently deployed in Da Nang is an integrated smart electric motorcycle charging station map app specifically for tourists. The app not only displays available charging points but also suggests 'Green Routes' passing through famous landmarks like the Dragon Bridge, Marble Mountains, and Hoi An, with rest stops equipped with fast-charging infrastructure. In the last 24 hours, downloads of this app have surged by 300%, indicating significant interest from international tourists, especially Koreans and Europeans, in sustainable transport.
To anticipate the surge of Korean tourists during the summer, many electric motorcycle rental units in Da Nang have launched the 'Summer Eco-Drive' incentive package. Tourists presenting their passport or flight ticket will receive an immediate 15% discount on rental fees. Additionally, the service includes travel insurance and 24/7 technical support across the city. This effort aims to enhance the international tourist experience while solidifying Da Nang's position as a leading smart and eco-friendly tourism city in Vietnam.
Data from travel platforms over the past 24 hours shows that the 'Green Trip' trend from Da Nang to Hoi An by electric motorcycle is becoming popular. With a distance of about 30km, new-generation electric bikes can comfortably travel both ways on a single full charge. The cost for this trip is only about 5,000 VND in electricity, compared to approximately 30,000 - 40,000 VND for gasoline. This trend attracts not only young people but also small families due to the safety, ease of control, and spacious trunks of modern electric motorcycles. Rental companies are now adding accessories such as phone holders, standard helmets, and fashionable raincoats to fully serve the needs of tourists on this journey.
