On January 9, 2024 local time, the CES 2024 Consumer Electronics Show officially opened. Participating in this year’s exhibition, VinFast introduces a brand-new concept car called the Wild.
As predicted earlier, the VinFast Wild is an all-electric pickup truck. This is also the first pickup truck model from the Vietnamese brand, affirming the commitment to expand the product range and promote sustainable mobility of VinFast.
VinFast’s new concept car has a fresh and innovative naming convention. According to the Vietnamese automaker, “Wild” represents the power of nature and the spirit to challenge all limitations and breakthrough, aiming for a green future for everyone.
The naming of this concept car is different from the other electric car models from VinFast
VinFast Wild is positioned in the mid-size pickup truck segment with dimensions equivalent to popular models in Vietnam such as the Ford Ranger, Toyota Hilux, or Mitsubishi Triton. This concept car has a length of 5,324 mm and a width of 1,997 mm.

The design of VinFast Wild is credited to GoMotiv, an Australian company. This concept car is the result of over 8,000 hours of research and development, with the participation of many top designers. Taking inspiration from the image of a superhero’s cape flying in the wind, VinFast and GoMotiv engineers have created the “Flow Power” design language specifically for Wild.

VinFast Wild features a compact and optimized design, with a flexible expandable cargo bed. Through the automatic folding feature of the windshield and the rear seats, the length of the cargo bed can increase from 1,524 mm to 2,438 mm. VinFast claims that this is the longest cargo bed size in the mid-size pickup truck segment, providing users with ample space for cargo, rest, or entertainment, maximizing convenience.
