Over the past 24 hours, the Hue tourism market recorded a major step forward as Xanh SM officially announced a roadmap to increase the number of VinFast Evo200 electric motorcycles for the Xanh SM Bike and self-driving rental services. According to data, the fleet size has increased by 25% to meet tourist demand during the peak season. These vehicles not only help minimize emissions in heritage areas like the Imperial City and tombs but also provide a smooth, modern experience. This is seen as a major boost, encouraging accommodation facilities in Hue to switch from gasoline bikes to partnering with professional electric vehicle providers.
Several electric motorcycle rental startups in Hue launched special combo packages today. Specifically, when renting an electric bike by the day, tourists receive free entrance tickets to certain monuments or a 15% discount voucher at famous cafes along the Huong River. Rental prices remain stable from 120,000 VND to 180,000 VND/day depending on the model. This trend shows the flexibility of small businesses in personalizing user experiences while integrating vehicle management technology via mobile apps to track battery life and locate the nearest attractions.
Hue city authorities recently held important discussions regarding prioritizing free parking areas for electric vehicles in the city center. This directly encourages tourists to choose electric motorcycles for transportation. Preliminary statistics show that searches for the keyword 'rent electric motorcycles in Hue' increased by 40% compared to last week. Rental businesses have quickly seized the opportunity by deploying 24/7 on-site technical support teams, ensuring tourists do not encounter battery issues while exploring suburban areas like Thien An Hill or Chuon Lagoon.
One of the most important news items in the last 24 hours is the completion of 10 additional fast-charging stations at 4-5 star hotels and main stops on the way to Khai Dinh and Tu Duc tombs. This completely resolves the 'out of battery' anxiety of tourists using electric motorcycles. These new charging systems are highly compatible with many popular electric bike models, making vehicle rotation more convenient than ever. This is a key factor for electric motorcycle rental companies in Hue to confidently expand their fleet size in the near future.
To stimulate sustainable tourism, electric motorcycle rental alliances in Hue have simultaneously launched the 'Green Summer' program. Accordingly, groups of 5 or more people renting bikes will receive an immediate 20% discount on the total bill and free pick-up and delivery services. The program focuses not only on price but also emphasizes protecting the environment of the Ancient Capital. Traveling by electric motorcycle is becoming a new 'lifestyle' for young people visiting Hue, helping them capture modern check-in photos while contributing to preserving the historical and cultural values of the region.
