Over the last 24 hours, the tourism market in Hue has recorded a strong shift towards green tourism, especially a boom in electric motorbike rental services. Below is a summary of the 5 most important news updates and notes that tourists need to master.
Major rental agencies in Hue, such as Hidrive and its affiliates, have updated a large number of VinFast Evo200 Lite models. The most important note is that this model can travel up to 200km on a single full charge. Given Hue's flat terrain, renting this model allows tourists to travel confidently from the city center to distant spots like Gia Long Tomb, Minh Mang Tomb, or Thuan An Beach without worrying about running out of battery midway.
According to the latest information from the Hue Monuments Conservation Center, major attractions such as the Imperial City, Khai Dinh Tomb, and Thien Mu Pagoda are completing priority parking areas dedicated to electric vehicles. Several large hotels in the Le Loi and Vo Thi Sau street areas have also installed fast-charging stations. Travelers should check the charging station map on the rental provider's app to optimize their itinerary.
Reputable electric motorbike rental shops are currently applying a 10% to 15% discount for groups renting 3 or more vehicles or for long-term rentals of over 2 days. Rental prices remain stable, ranging from 120,000 VND to 150,000 VND per day. Additionally, the 'Green Travel Combo,' which includes an electric motorbike and entrance tickets to heritage sites, is being actively promoted by many travel companies in Hue.
A new feature in Hue's electric vehicle rental service over the past 24 hours is the integration of civil liability insurance and on-site rescue packages into the rental price. Because electric vehicles have electronic components sensitive to weather (especially Hue's rain), rental units strictly require tourists not to charge the vehicle at unsafe power sources or drive into deep flooded areas. In case of technical issues, rescue services will arrive within 15-30 minutes within the city area.
To enhance security and convenience, many providers have switched to an online check-in process. Tourists need to prepare their ID card or passport and an A1 class driver's license (for high-capacity models). The latest trend is picking up the vehicle via a QR code at the hotel lobby, saving waiting time. Travelers are also advised to film or take photos of the vehicle's condition upon pickup to avoid unnecessary disputes when returning.
