Mr. Nguyen Hoang Anh (Cau Giay District, Hanoi) said that although it is not yet Tet holiday, he has booked a Mazda 3 car for travel during this occasion at the price of 1.2 million VND/day. "Learning from previous years' experience of not being able to find a car to rent close to the holiday, this year I contacted car rental companies to book a month in advance. Renting early helps me choose the car model I like and get a better price, most importantly, I am sure I will have a car to travel" , said Mr. Hoang Anh.
The owner of a self-drive car rental business in Hanoi said that the demand for car rental during the holidays is usually very high. If you want to be assured, you have to book from 2 weeks to more than a month before Tet. In fact, for many years, rental cars have been "sold out" during Tet.

The owner of a self-drive car rental facility on Khuc Thua Du Street (Cau Giay District, Hanoi) said that his facility currently only has one Mazda 3 car that was picked up that day to rent out to customers. But because it is a new car, the price is much higher than a used car.
“I just got it from the company, the car has only gone 2km, if you rent it, the price is 1.6 million VND/day. Because it is a brand new car, and it is a holiday, the price is also high,” this person shared.
This facility has more than 40 cars for rent, all of which have been booked and delivered before the Lunar New Year holiday, expected to earn nearly 200 million VND.
Notably, on social networks, many people are curious and interested in the information that they can rent VinFast electric cars from the Green SM car company to travel during the Tet holiday with a rental price of about 12 million VND/month.
" If there really is such a service, I will rent it for the whole month of Tet for convenience. Such a price is very reasonable, renting a normal car for 7 days already costs tens of millions of dong ," commented Minh Duc.
Responding to VTC News about this information, a representative of the car company Xanh SM confirmed that the company is preparing to launch a short-term self-drive car rental service - Xanh SM RENTALS, however the rental price will not be as low as the information on social networks.

This car rental service will also limit the travel distance to 200km/day. If the limit is exceeded, customers will have to pay an additional fee ranging from 2,500 VND - 7,000 VND/km for each car model.
In addition, Xanh SM also launched a Lunar New Year car rental package (From February 6, 2024 to February 15, 2024) with the following prices: VinFast VF e34 is 17.3 million VND/10 days; VinFast VF 5 is 11.9 million VND/10 days; VinFast VF 8 Eco is 19.5 million VND/10 days; VinFast VF 8 Plus is 21.7 million VND/10 days; VinFast VF 9 Eco is 31.4 million VND/10 days.
