TRENDS AND EXPERIENCES IN RENTING ELECTRIC MOTORBIKES FOR TOURISM IN DA NANG

Over the past 24 hours, the electric motorbike tourism market in Da Nang has recorded strong shifts towards green transportation. Below is a summary of the 5 latest news and trends regarding usage experiences and electric motorbike rental services in the worth-living city.

1. Boom in Next-Generation VinFast Electric Motorbike Rentals

Electric motorbike rental agencies in Da Nang such as Loc Phat, Gia Huy, and VinFast's affiliated partners are reporting a sudden surge in bookings, accounting for 45% of the total motorbike rental market. The two most popular models are the VinFast Evo200 and Feliz S, thanks to their stylish design, spacious trunk, and continuous range of up to 150km - 200km per full charge. Rental prices remain stable, ranging from 120,000 VND to 180,000 VND/day depending on the model.

2. High-Speed Battery Swapping Trend with Selex Motors

The most notable technological highlight in the past 24 hours is the expansion of the next-generation battery swapping network from Selex Motors in Hai Chau and Ngu Hanh Son districts. Instead of waiting 3-4 hours to charge, tourists renting Selex electric motorbikes now take less than 2 minutes to swap a fully charged battery at automatic swapping stations located at convenience stores and gas stations. This trend completely resolves tourists' anxiety about running out of battery mid-way when traveling long distances to spots like Hai Van Pass or Hoi An Ancient Town.

3. "Da Nang Green Autumn" Promotional Program

To stimulate sustainable tourism, an alliance of electric vehicle rental shops in Da Nang has simultaneously launched a major promotion running until the end of the month. Specifically:

Immediate 15% discount for customers renting for 3 days or more.
Free delivery to the airport, train station, and beachfront hotels along My Khe.
Complimentary digital map integrating locations of VinFast charging stations and smart battery swapping stations citywide.

4. Charging Station and Battery Swapping Map Covers Coastal Accommodations

The Da Nang Tourism Association, in cooperation with EV enterprises, has completed the installation of 15 additional fast-charging and battery-swapping points at 3-5 star hotels along Vo Nguyen Giap and Truong Sa streets. This infrastructure upgrade allows tourists to charge their vehicles overnight directly at their accommodations at no extra cost, optimizing their night exploration journey.

5. Practical Experience when Traveling to Son Tra Peninsula and Ba Na Hills

According to feedback from backpackers and tourists in the past day, when choosing an electric motorbike to conquer steep roads like Son Tra Peninsula or the foot of Ba Na Hills, tourists should prioritize models with an engine capacity of 1500W or higher (such as VinFast Feliz S or Dat Bike Weaver++). Practical experience shows that the "Sport" mode on these models enables smooth hill climbing, but it is crucial to ensure the battery capacity is above 70% before starting the uphill climb for absolute safety.
