Mr. Dan Vardie, the award judge and Founder and current Chairman of AUTOBEST, highly praised Vingroup’s vision and strategy in investing billions of dollars to develop VinFast as a large-scale green industrial project with international reach. VinFast has been leading the trend of electrification in transportation and promoting green lifestyles worldwide.
Experts attending the conference acknowledged VinFast’s “unprecedented” achievements in the Vietnamese industry within just 5 years since entering the automobile manufacturing industry. VinFast offers a full range of electric vehicle products, including electric bicycles, electric motorcycles, electric cars, and electric buses. They also provide attractive sales policies, after-sales services, and a nationwide network of charging stations, making it easy, convenient, smart, and cost-effective for customers to experience green transportation. VinFast products are not only popular in Vietnam but also exported to major markets such as the US and the EU. Notably, VinFast is the only Vietnamese business listed on the Nasdaq stock exchange in the US.
As of November 2023, VinFast has introduced 15 models of electric motorcycles and 7 models of electric cars. They also operate the VinBus electric bus system, which serves millions of daily commutes in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City. VinFast has the widest dealership, showroom, and service center network among car manufacturers in Vietnam. Additionally, they have established the largest public charging station network in the country, with over 150,000 charging ports available in all 63 provinces and cities. The strategic placement of charging stations ensures coverage and convenience for VinFast vehicle owners.
VinFast electric vehicles have become a preferred choice for taxi companies, including GSM, due to their intelligent features, cost-effective operation, and commitment to environmental sustainability. Within just over 5 months since its launch, GSM has experienced a record 6 million passengers, thanks to the outstanding advantages of VinFast electric vehicles.
VinFast leads the green and sustainable mobility revolution
Vietnam has committed to reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 9% by 2030 under the Paris Agreement on climate change. This commitment can be increased to 27% with international support. Vietnam also aims to achieve net-zero emissions in the transportation sector by 2050.
Experts consider Vietnam a promising market for electric cars due to the cost-saving advantages in fuel consumption, rising oil prices, and growing environmental concerns related to gasoline-powered vehicles. Additionally, the Government has provided incentives for the use of electric vehicles, including reduced import taxes and vehicle registration fees for owners. However, achieving sustainable development requires visionary enterprises with significant investments to lead the way.
Mr. Morgan Donovan Carroll, ESG Director of VinFast, stated that VinFast is committed to sustainable development and building a green future. They focus on electric vehicle production, battery technology, renewable energy integration, charging infrastructure development, recycling, circular economy, and international partnerships.
“VinFast prioritizes digital transformation to improve operations, enhance efficiency, and quickly respond to changing customer needs. They also prioritize sustainability by reducing carbon footprint, choosing renewable energy sources, and prioritizing customer experience. These are the key objectives driving VinFast’s adaptive innovation in the new context,” shared the ESG Director of VinFast. These efforts aim to contribute to a more sustainable and environmentally friendly automotive industry in Vietnam.
