In the last 24 hours, GSM has officially updated its 'Xanh Tour' service package specifically for the Hue ancient capital area. Accordingly, tourists can rent VinFast Feliz S electric motorcycles with flexible time frames: 4 hours, 8 hours, and 24 hours at a 15% discount compared to last week. This change aims to meet the demand for visiting tombs and the citadel without worrying about the cost of individual bookings. GSM has also added 200 new vehicles at key transportation hubs such as Hue Station and the Southern Bus Station to serve the surge of visitors during the summer tourism season.
A notable new trend is the partnership between local EV rental startups and 4-5 star hotel/resort chains in Hue. This morning, representatives of the sustainable tourism alliance in Hue announced the installation of electric motorcycle pick-up/drop-off points right at hotel lobbies. Guests will receive a 50,000 VNĐ discount voucher for their first rental. This is a strategic move to minimize noise and emissions in heritage areas while providing a quiet, sophisticated experience for tourists exploring the roads along the Perfume River.
Important infrastructure news recorded the completion of 10 additional fast-charging and smart battery swapping stations near Khai Dinh Tomb and Minh Mang Tomb. This completely resolves the 'low battery' anxiety for tourists using electric motorcycles to visit sites located far from the city center. Rental units like Evo and authorized VinFast dealers in Hue commit to maintaining a 24/7 technical support team, ready to assist customers within 15 minutes in case of operational issues, ensuring an uninterrupted journey of discovery.
A new segment booming in the last 24 hours is the rental service for classic/vintage design electric motorcycles. Rental shops on Le Loi and Chu Van An streets reported 'out of stock' status for pastel-colored models. Tourists, especially young people, prioritize renting electric vehicles not just for transport but as photo accessories with Ao Dai at the Hue Citadel. Rental packages combined with traditional costume rental services are currently 'best-sellers', boosting rental industry revenue by 25% compared to the same period last month.
The Thua Thien Hue Department of Tourism has just issued a new announcement regarding priority free parking for pure electric vehicles at attractions within the ancient capital monument complex. Electric motorcycle rental businesses are seizing this opportunity to launch the 'Green Trip for Green Heritage' campaign. Customers renting electric motorcycles during this time will receive a digital map of charging points and cafes with exclusive offers for EV users. This is a strong move confirming Hue's position in building a leading smart and sustainable tourism model in the Central region, creating positive pressure on traditional gasoline vehicle services in Da Nang and surrounding areas.
