Over the past 24 hours, the Hue tourism market has recorded a powerful transformation as leading electric motorbike rental companies teamed up with green energy tech partners to deploy a rapid battery-swapping station network. Tourists renting electric motorbikes no longer need to worry about charging times. Instead of waiting 3-4 hours, it takes less than 2 minutes to swap for a fully charged battery at automated stations located near the Imperial City, Khai Dinh Tomb, and Minh Mang Tomb. This battery-swapping trend is ushering in a new era of zero-emission heritage exploration in the ancient capital.
A coalition of electric motorbike rental businesses in Thua Thien Hue has officially launched a dedicated mobile application integrated with a real-time battery-swapping and public charging station map. The app allows tourists to easily locate available vehicles, book rides remotely, and make cashless payments. Notably, the digital map displays the vehicle's remaining battery percentage in detail and suggests optimal green travel routes, ensuring peace of mind for travelers throughout the day.
To attract domestic and international tourists this autumn, major electric motorbike rental companies in Hue have simultaneously launched a large-scale promotional campaign. Specifically, a 30% discount is applied to daily rental rates for next-generation electric motorbikes equipped with battery-swapping technology, along with a complimentary travel insurance package. Furthermore, tourists renting vehicles for 3 days or more will receive a Hue culinary voucher worth VND 100,000. This program instantly triggered a surge in advance bookings across online platforms.
Quick reports from homestays and 3-to-5-star hotels in Hue city center show that over 80% of lodging establishments have completed partnership agreements to host electric motorbike rental points right in their lobbies. This 'All-in-one' convenience model allows tourists to pick up and return vehicles directly at their accommodation. By integrating smart battery-swapping cabinets, hotels are not only adding value to their services but also promoting green living and protecting the peaceful, ancient landscape of Hue.
The most prominent news last night was the boom of the 'Eco Night Tour' model – exploring Hue at night on electric motorbikes. With the advantages of smooth, completely silent, and emission-free operation, fleets of electric motorbikes carrying tourists through ancient streets, Truong Tien Bridge, and local night food zones have received overwhelmingly positive feedback. Experts assess that this green mode of transport not only preserves Hue's signature quiet atmosphere but also provides tourists with a relaxing, nature-immersed experience.
