VinFast revealed its international business strategy for electric scooters, identifying five initial key target markets: the Philippines, Indonesia, India, Thailand, and Malaysia. This marks a significant step in VinFast's global expansion strategy and the ongoing development of a comprehensive green transportation ecosystem.
Under this plan, VinFast will accelerate the global expansion of its electric scooter business, starting with the five high-potential markets mentioned above. These countries are characterized by strong urban mobility demand, favorable demographic dynamics, and a clear shift toward sustainable transportation solutions.
Regarding products, VinFast plans to launch several battery-swappable electric scooter models, including the VinFast Flazz, VinFast Evo, VinFast Feliz II, and VinFast Viper, along with additional new models to be introduced soon. Each product is carefully tailored to local usage conditions, travel patterns, and consumer needs in each market.
In terms of business expansion, VinFast aims to establish several hundred retail stores in these markets by 2027 to build a solid foundation for long-term growth. The expansion model is designed to be flexible and operationally efficient by integrating dealer networks, service centers, financial solutions, and energy infrastructure, including collaboration with V-Green for charging and battery swapping systems.
VinFast's international expansion strategy is built on strong performance in Vietnam. In 2025, the company delivered 406,453 electric scooters, officially securing market leadership in the country's scooter segment. With over 10 models covering various categories and supported by flexible charging and battery swapping solutions, VinFast has positioned its electric scooters as a popular transportation choice among Vietnamese consumers.
Entering 2026, VinFast announced the success of its master plan covering three main electric scooter segments: general, premium, and sport. Simultaneously, the company launched seven new models in the premium and sport categories, strengthening its competitive edge in design, performance, and product differentiation. With large-scale production capacity, competitive pricing strategies, and a comprehensive ecosystem—including flexible battery swapping solutions via strategic partner V-Green—VinFast aims to significantly accelerate the transition to electric transportation regionally and globally.
The Philippines is the first strategic market on VinFast's global electric scooter expansion path. The company has partnered with five leading dealers across Luzon and Mindanao—Maverick Racing Factory Inc., MotorCentral, New Nemar Development Corp., Supremebike Corporation, and ARC Trading—to establish nationwide retail and service networks. These partners are experienced and stable players with a clear commitment to the initiative for environmentally friendly transportation transition.
In recent years, VinFast has steadily built a green transportation ecosystem in the Philippines, Indonesia, India, and other markets through partnerships with reputable local partners, including strategic partners like GSM, an electric taxi service provider, and V-Green, a global charging infrastructure developer.
Beyond electric scooters, VinFast has also launched a variety of electric vehicle models, ranging from the VF 3 to the VF 9, to expand consumer options and strengthen the company's role in the ongoing shift toward sustainable transportation.
