In the past 24 hours, Selex Motors announced the addition of 5 automated battery swapping points in Ngu Hanh Son and Son Tra districts, adjacent to busy culinary axes like Vo Nguyen Giap and Ho Nghinh. This strategic move aims to support tourists using Selex Camel electric motorcycle rentals for food tours without battery anxiety. With 2-minute battery swapping technology, visitors can continuously hop between famous seafood restaurants without waiting for traditional charging. This service is revolutionizing local rental agencies, optimizing vehicle uptime to 100%.
GSM (Xanh SM) has just rolled out hourly and daily rental packages for VinFast Evo200 and Feliz S electric bikes at highly competitive rates, starting from just 120,000 VND/day. The highlight is the partnership with Da Nang's culinary icons; rental customers receive 10-15% discount vouchers at specialty restaurants like Tran Pork Rice Paper Rolls or Ong Ta Fish Cake Noodles. The trend of renting VinFast electric bikes is dominating the market due to their stylish design and spacious trunks, perfect for storing food souvenirs from Han Market.
Across Da Nang travel groups, the Dat Bike Weaver++ has become a phenomenon among youth hunting for street food in the An Thuong pedestrian area. Premium electric bike rental shops recorded a 40% increase in bookings yesterday. With performance equivalent to a 150cc gasoline bike and 1-hour fast charging for a 100km range, Dat Bike allows tourists to easily conquer further culinary routes like the foot of Hai Van Pass for Nam O fish salad while remaining eco-friendly.
An emerging trend in the last 24 hours in Da Nang is the collaboration between small rental units to implement the 'Battery-as-a-Service' (BaaS) model. Instead of owning the battery, renters simply pay a battery rental fee and can swap batteries at any linked station across the city network. This has pushed electric bike rental prices down to be equal to or lower than gasoline bikes (around 80,000 - 100,000 VND/day). Popular cafes are also installing these swapping stations to attract green tourists.
City authorities and tourism businesses are discussing the establishment of 'Green Food Zones' in central areas, prioritizing zero-emission vehicles. Rental companies like Evos, Mua, and local startups are leading this trend by importing hundreds of new units. Notably, 'Rent EV - Free Parking' promotions at night markets like Helio or Son Tra are attracting large numbers of tourists, asserting the position of electric motorcycles in Da Nang's sustainable tourism-culinary ecosystem.
