Over the past 24 hours, Hue's culinary map has seen a surge in tourists, especially younger travelers prioritizing electric motorcycles for their journeys. Next-generation e-scooter models like the VinFast Evo200 and Selex Camel have become top choices due to their compact designs, allowing foodies to effortlessly navigate Hue's deep alleys to reach famous local eateries like Bun Bo Me Keo, Banh Loc Mu Do, and the sweet soup stalls on Hung Vuong Street. The synergy of traditional cuisine and green mobility is redefining the travel lifestyle in the Ancient Capital.
A major milestone in Hue's electric vehicle sector has been recorded with the expansion of rapid battery-swapping networks by Selex Motors and its partners. Instead of waiting 3 to 4 hours for a full charge, tourists renting e-motorcycles can now swap a depleted battery for a fully charged one in under 2 minutes at automated swapping stations located near the Imperial Citadel and the Perfume River. This battery-swapping trend ensures uninterrupted night food tours and completely eliminates range anxiety.
To boost green tourism, leading electric motorcycle rental agencies in Hue have rolled out the joint promotional campaign "Green Food Tour Hue". Tourists renting e-scooters via online platforms will receive an immediate 20% to 30% discount on daily rental rates, which also applies to hourly rental packages for lunch or dinner trips. Additionally, the rental package includes a complimentary digital map integrated with charging docks, battery-swapping stations, and a curated list of 50 authentic Hue eateries recommended by the Department of Tourism.
Unlike noisy and polluting petrol bikes, electric motorcycles offer a quiet and eco-friendly ride that complements Hue’s ancient and tranquil atmosphere. Especially in crowded culinary streets characterized by narrow alleys (locally called "kiet"), compact e-scooters demonstrate superior maneuverability and ease of parking. Many local restaurant owners encourage customers to use electric vehicles, as they do not emit unpleasant exhaust fumes near outdoor dining areas.
The Thua Thien Hue Department of Tourism, in collaboration with travel agencies, is actively promoting green transportation initiatives. Establishing strong partnerships between local dining venues and smart battery-swapping e-motorcycle rental services is expected to create a highly sustainable tourism ecosystem. In the coming months, Hue will install more battery-swapping hubs along major food streets, establishing electric motorcycle rentals as an indispensable part of every visitor's heritage and culinary journey.
