The Top 10 Best-Selling Cars of Q1 2025: Korean Cars Miss Out

Once top-selling models like the Toyota Vios, Mitsubishi Xpander, and Mazda CX-5 are now absent from the best-selling list.

Instead, domestic electric vehicles, especially the VinFast VF 3 and VF 5, have surged to the top spots. This is the first time that domestically produced electric vehicles have directly competed with and outsold many traditional models in the first quarter.

Notably, the top 10 best-selling cars of Q1 2025 do not include any Korean models. Names that once “dominated” the market, such as Hyundai Accent, Hyundai Creta, and Kia Seltos, are now absent, indicating a significant slowdown for Korean brands in Vietnam.

Here are the 10 best-selling cars of Q1 2025:
