Over the past 24 hours, a significant shift has been recorded among tourists in Da Nang from gasoline motorbikes to electric scooters, particularly the VinFast Evo200 and Feliz S models. Major rental agencies in Ngu Hanh Son and Son Tra districts reported a 95% occupancy rate for electric vehicles. With advantages such as smooth operation, no noise, and stable hill-climbing ability, electric scooters are becoming the preferred choice for exploring the Son Tra Peninsula. Current rental packages range from 150,000 VND to 250,000 VND per day, depending on the model. Notably, tourists can experience smartphone connectivity to monitor battery levels and locate charging stations online, ensuring absolute peace of mind on long journeys.
A notable event in Da Nang's tourism industry today is the signing of a cooperation agreement between local electric vehicle rental companies and sustainable accommodation providers. Accordingly, tourists staying at 'Eco-friendly' hotels will receive a 20% discount voucher or direct cashback when using electric scooter rental services. This program aims to reduce CO2 emissions in the inner city and key attractions like the Marble Mountains. Systems such as EV-Rent and Green-Go have officially applied the discount code 'DANANGGREEN' for customers booking via their websites within the next 24 hours, strongly promoting the trend of responsible tourism.
The energy bottleneck has been officially resolved with the inauguration of 10 additional smart battery swapping stations along Vo Nguyen Giap and Truong Sa streets. Actual records show that the battery swapping process takes less than 2 minutes, ensuring that tourists' journeys are not interrupted. This is the biggest technical breakthrough in the past 24 hours, completely eliminating the fear of running out of power halfway when traveling far to Ba Na Hills or Hoi An. Rental companies now offer an 'Unlimited Battery' package for just an additional 50,000 VND, allowing customers to swap batteries for free at any linked point across the city.
Safety is always a top priority, and the latest news from Da Nang's self-drive rental unions shows a comprehensive upgrade in logistics services. As of today, 100% of rental electric scooters must be accompanied by mandatory civil liability insurance and accident insurance for the rider. In addition, a dedicated 24/7 mobile rescue service for electric vehicles has been established. If a vehicle encounters a software issue or a sudden battery drain, a technical team will arrive within 15-30 minutes to provide a replacement vehicle or on-site charging. This is an effort to professionalize the service and attract international tourists who are very strict about safety standards.
To anticipate the wave of tourists from Korea, Japan, and Western countries, tech startups in Da Nang have integrated multi-language booking features (Vietnamese - English - Korean - Japanese) for electric vehicles. This app not only allows electronic payments via international credit cards and Apple Pay but also provides 'Green' route suggestions—the best paths for photography with minimal smoke and dust. This trend is being warmly received by the 'Digital Nomad' community in Da Nang, who can rent vehicles long-term by the week or month at a cost of only 60% compared to daily rentals, including on-site periodic maintenance services.
