Its EV portfolio includes electric SUVs such as the VF 8 and VF 9, which have been highlighted in multiple press releases as key models in its global expansion. The VF 8, a five-seat midsize electric SUV, has been described by the company as its first global model, while the VF 9 is a seven-seat full-size electric SUV aimed at families and drivers seeking larger vehicles.
VinFast’s EV strategy includes multiple brands and sub‑brands.

Across these brands, VinFast emphasizes safety, durability, advanced technology, and total cost of ownership, as described in its own communications.
Geographic footprint and markets
In its SEC filings and press releases, VinFast states that it produces vehicles in Vietnam and exports to key markets across Asia, North America, and Europe. Within Asia, the company has highlighted its activities in Vietnam, India, Indonesia, and the Philippines. In Vietnam, VinFast reports strong domestic demand and has disclosed that it surpassed 100,000 EV deliveries in the first three quarters of 2025, describing this as a first for an automaker in the country. The company has also reported expanding dealer networks and showrooms in India, Indonesia and the Philippines.
Outside Asia, VinFast has described its presence in Canada, the United States, Europe and the Middle East. In Canada, the VF 8 and VF 9 electric SUVs have been positioned for family and long-distance use in a climate with harsh winters and long travel distances. In the United States, VinFast has reported opening a dealership in California. In Europe, it has announced the introduction of EB 8 and EB 12 electric bus models at Busworld Europe in Brussels, marking its entry into the region’s commercial vehicle market. In the Middle East, VinFast has disclosed a partnership with the Arabian Automobile Association to provide roadside assistance in several countries.
Integrated EV ecosystem and technology
Company materials describe VinFast as building an integrated EV ecosystem in Vietnam and surrounding markets, including vehicles, charging infrastructure, and after-sales services. The company reports that it is evolving its technology stack around three pillars: vehicle platform, electric-electronic (EE) architecture, and advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS)/autonomous driving. It has stated that it is re‑engineering its EE system into a zonal architecture, with core software developed in-house and standardized hardware supplied by partners. According to VinFast, this centralized computing approach is intended to support over-the-air (OTA) updates, faster feature deployment and system stability.
In public communications, VinFast has also described a two-step approach to ADAS and autonomous driving, combining collaboration with external partners and the development of in-house capabilities. The company’s vehicles, such as the VF 8 and VF 9, are presented as incorporating driver-assistance features and safety systems designed to ease long-distance driving and enhance driver confidence, though specific feature sets are described at the model level in press releases rather than as a single universal package.
Vehicle lineup and segments
VinFast’s product lineup, as described in its news releases and filings, spans multiple vehicle types and market segments:
- Electric SUVs: Models such as the VF 8 and VF 9 are highlighted as central to the company’s global strategy. The VF 8 is presented as a midsize SUV that has moved from a national product to a global model, while the VF 9 is positioned as a seven-seat full-size SUV.
- Compact and small EVs: In Vietnam, models including the VF 3, VF 5, VF 6 and VF 7 are mentioned in delivery updates as key contributors to domestic volumes, indicating a range of vehicle sizes and price points.
- Green Series commercial EVs: The Green Series, including models such as Herio Green, Nerio Green and Limo Green, is described as serving commercial and fleet customers.
- Electric buses: VinFast reports producing e-buses and has introduced EB 8 and EB 12 electric bus models in Europe, with the EB 12 described as a 12‑meter city bus that complies with UNECE and CE standards.
- Two-wheelers: The company reports substantial deliveries of e-scooters and e-bikes, indicating a significant presence in the electric two-wheeler segment, particularly in Vietnam.
Growth, deliveries and positioning
VinFast’s SEC filings and press releases provide recurring updates on vehicle deliveries. The company has reported rapid growth in EV deliveries in Vietnam and globally, including quarterly and monthly delivery milestones. For example, it has disclosed delivering more than 100,000 EVs in Vietnam in the first nine months of 2025 and has reported record monthly deliveries exceeding 20,000 EVs in Vietnam in October 2025. A subsequent filing in early 2026 states that preliminary internal data indicate full-year 2025 global EV deliveries approaching 200,000 vehicles, approximately double the 97,399 EVs delivered in 2024.
These disclosures present VinFast as a fast-growing EV manufacturer with a strong domestic base in Vietnam and an expanding international footprint. The company’s communications emphasize domestic market leadership in EV deliveries and describe its strategy as combining growth in Vietnam with expansion into other high-growth markets in Asia and beyond.
Corporate structure and capital strategy
VinFast is organized as VinFast Auto Ltd. and identifies as a foreign private issuer in its SEC filings, reporting under Form 20‑F and furnishing current reports on Form 6‑K. It is listed on the Nasdaq under the symbol VFS. Filings describe various financing arrangements, including loan facilities with international banks and capital support from its parent, Vingroup JSC. The company has also disclosed corporate restructuring steps, such as the planned spin-off of Novatech Research and Development Joint Stock Company to hold certain research and development assets, and related share transfer and preference share exchange arrangements involving Vingroup and the company’s founder.
These transactions, as described in the filings, are framed as efforts to support VinFast’s long-term growth, capital structure and investment in research and development, while maintaining its core EV manufacturing operations within its main subsidiary in Vietnam.
Strategic vision
In its own statements, VinFast has articulated a vision to become a multi-brand, full-line EV manufacturer covering passenger, commercial and autonomous mobility. It has indicated an ambition to evolve from producing EVs to building a broader mobility ecosystem, which includes vehicles, charging, after-sales services and technology platforms.
