Da Nang is witnessing a strong shift towards green tourism. Over the past 24 hours, electric motorbike rental services in this coastal city have recorded a surge in interest. Here is a summary of the 5 latest updates and trends for travelers.
Instead of waiting 2 to 4 hours for charging, the trend of renting electric motorbikes that support quick battery-swapping technology is dominating the Da Nang market. Major brands and affiliates like Selex Motors have expanded their network of automatic battery swapping stations across Son Tra, Ngu Hanh Son, and Hai Chau districts. Travelers take less than 2 minutes to swap a fully charged battery, ensuring an uninterrupted journey to Son Tra Peninsula or Hoi An. When renting, prioritize asking the rental agency for a map of compatible swapping stations.
A crucial warning highlighted by experts today is to clearly determine the battery capacity and actual driving range. Popular models like VinFast Feliz S, Evo200, or Dat Bike Quantum can travel from 100km to over 200km per full charge. However, if you travel on steep terrains like Hai Van Pass or Son Tra, power consumption will be 1.5 times faster. Demand that the rental owner hand over the vehicle with at least 90% battery and instruct you on how to read the battery indicators on the dashboard.
Welcoming the peak tourist season, many electric bike rental companies in Da Nang have launched attractive promotional packages over the last 24 hours. Notably, combo packages include bike rental with the first 2 battery swaps free, or a 15% discount for customers booking online 48 hours in advance. Rental prices currently range stably from 120,000 VND to 250,000 VND/day depending on whether it is a standard or premium model.
For high-capacity electric motorbikes (equivalent to gasoline motorbikes above 50cc), riders must possess an A1 class driver's license or equivalent. Foreign tourists must prepare an International Driving Permit (IDP). When completing rental procedures in Da Nang, visitors need to present their Citizen ID card or Passport and prepare a deposit ranging from 1,000,000 VND to 3,000,000 VND depending on the vehicle's value.
To avoid running out of battery mid-journey or encountering technical glitches, professional electric bike rental shops in Da Nang now integrate 24/7 battery rescue and technical support services. Before signing the contract, tourists must save the rental company's rescue hotline. Additionally, carefully test the regenerative braking system—a unique feature of electric vehicles that recharges the battery when going downhill but might feel abrupt for first-time users.
