In addition to targeting customers, VinFast actively sought new partners to expand its market presence and promote sustainable mobility solutions in the region.

The company also intends to introduce right-hand steering versions of its EV models - VF 5, VF 6, VF 7, and VF e34 - tailored to meet market's specific features and demands. 

Madam Le Thi Thu Thuy, Vice Chairman of Vingroup and Chairman of VinFast, stated: “Expanding to the Southeast Asia region is part of VinFast’s global development strategy.
