Management Commentary
Madame Thuy Le, Chairwoman of VinFast, said, “This quarter, VinFast became the first automobile brand to surpass 100,000 vehicles sold in Vietnam within the first three quarters of a single year, following thirteen consecutive months as the nation’s best-selling carmaker.”
“Our sustained market leadership at home, combined with continued progress across Asia, including being ranked among the top 8 for EV registrations in India in October 2025 and among the top 5 BEV brands in Indonesia for the first nine months of 2025, demonstrates the growing strength of our brand and the effectiveness of our regional expansion strategy.”
Outlook
VinFast aims to at least double global vehicle deliveries in 2025, supported by steady growth and strong fundamentals.
E-scooter sales are expected to rise further, fueled by favorable government policies for two-wheeler electrification in Vietnam and VinFast’s ongoing support for the transition.
