VinFast is a Vietnamese automaker, founded in 2017 by Vingroup, one of Vietnam’s largest conglomerates. Despite being a newcomer, VinFast has quickly gained global attention with its ambition to become a major player in the electric vehicle (EV) market.
The company’s first models included internal combustion cars based on BMW platforms, but it soon pivoted to a fully electric lineup, producing SUVs, sedans, and electric scooters. VinFast debuted internationally at the 2018 Paris Motor Show and later launched in the United States and Europe.
VinFast’s key models include the VF e34, VF 8, and VF 9, all-electric SUVs designed for global markets. The brand emphasizes sustainability, advanced technology, and smart connectivity. In 2023, VinFast went public on the Nasdaq, highlighting its global ambitions.
Today, VinFast represents Vietnam’s entry into the global automotive industry, positioning itself as a challenger to established EV brands.
