Over the past 24 hours, Da Nang's green tourism movement has seen significant shifts, particularly in the integration of local culinary experiences with smart electric scooter rental services. Here are the top 5 news highlights and trends travelers should not miss.
The biggest news today is the expansion of the charging infrastructure at Helio Night Market, the heart of Da Nang's street food scene. Rental providers like Xanh SM and private agencies have installed 5 additional fast-charging stations in the West parking lot. This allows tourists renting models like the VinFast Evo200 or Feliz S to enjoy dishes like Banh Xeo and seafood while their vehicle fully recharges in just 30-45 minutes. The 'Charge & Dine' trend is becoming a top priority for young travelers from major cities.
An alliance of 10 major electric scooter rental shops in Ngu Hanh Son and Son Tra districts just announced a special promotion titled 'Green Food Tour.' Customers renting an electric scooter for 2 or more days receive a voucher booklet for 15-20% discounts at seafood restaurants along Vo Nguyen Giap Street and Tran specialty restaurants. The VinFast Evo200, boasting a 200km range per charge, is currently sold out due to its smooth operation, allowing foodies to navigate narrow alleys without noise or emissions.
To serve the demand for traditional food exploration at Con Market and Han Market, EV startups have deployed the 'Battery Swapping' model. Instead of waiting for a charge, tourists can swap for a fresh battery in just 2 minutes at convenience stores opposite the market gates. This eliminates range anxiety while hopping between breakfast spots for Bun Cha Ca, Mi Quang, and riverside cafes. This service saw a 40% usage surge in the last 24 hours, proving the superiority of EVs over traditional gas bikes.
A new development in Da Nang is the emergence of hourly electric scooter rentals (starting at only 30,000 VND/hour) specifically for night food tours. Companies are focusing on stylish models with large storage compartments for souvenirs or takeaway food. Notably, modern EVs equipped with GPS help travelers locate 'hidden gem' eateries via integrated apps, a breakthrough in personalizing the culinary journey for international visitors.
The Da Nang Department of Tourism, in collaboration with electric transport units, has proposed a pilot 'Smoke-Free Food Street' in areas near My Khe Beach. Tourists are highly encouraged to use electric scooters in these zones. 3 to 5-star hotels have also begun integrating EV rental services directly at their lobbies with preferential rates for guests. A quick survey showed 85% of tourists preferred EVs as they don't have to search for gas stations and contribute to keeping Da Nang's coastal environment clean.
