Indonesian Media: VinFast Inspires its Neighbors
“In a short span of time, VinFast has surpassed gasoline-powered competitors to become the best-selling automotive brand in the Vietnamese market in 10 months of 2024,” emphasized CNN Indonesia, highlighting that the number-one position in Vietnam has solidified VinFast’s pioneering role in the global green transition.
The publication cited that in October 2024, VinFast recorded over 11,000 electric vehicle deliveries, a 21% increase from the previous month. Thus, from the beginning of the year until the end of October, VinFast delivered more than 51,000 vehicles, claiming the top spot in the Vietnamese market.
CNBC Indonesia described this achievement as a “miracle,” as the journey from zero to hero for the Vietnamese automaker took place within just two years.
Meanwhile, according to CNN Indonesia, the success of the Vietnamese electric vehicle company has inspired neighboring countries such as Indonesia.
Indonesian media commented that VinFast embodies not only the determined spirit of the Vietnamese but also represents the innovation of Southeast Asia—a region that has long depended on technology imports from developed countries.
“Thousands of Vietnamese have joined the global green revolution by choosing VinFast electric vehicles. VinFast’s success in convincing Vietnamese consumers to switch to electric vehicles is a strong statement for the prospects of electric mobility in Southeast Asia,” wrote CNN Indonesia.
Dutch Newspaper Explains VinFast’s Success
According to Baaz (The Netherlands), VinFast’s multi-product, multi-market strategy has enabled the Nasdaq-listed electric vehicle maker to adapt to macroeconomic fluctuations. “With a diverse range of smart products that apply advanced technologies focused on consumers, VinFast is making the dream of electrification easier for everyone, becoming an important piece in a sustainably growing industry,” wrote Baaz.
The newspaper pointed out that the two main models that contributed to VinFast’s leading position in October 2024 were the mini e-SUV VF 3, with nearly 5,000 units, and the VF 5 electric car in the A-segment, with more than 2,600 units. Other models, including VF 6, VF 7, VF 8, VF 9, and VF e34, also achieved impressive business results, indicating that Vietnamese consumers are increasingly favoring electric vehicles and supporting the green mobility trend.
“Vietnam is one of the few countries in the world where electric vehicles outsell gasoline cars. Notably, VinFast achieved this feat just two years after transitioning to electric vehicle manufacturing and business,” emphasized Baaz.
Middle Eastern Media: VinFast, a ‘Global Green Warrior’
In an article titled “VinFast: The Green Warrior Leading the Charge in the Electric Vehicle Industry,” Car Book Magazine assessed that the electric vehicle market is entering a more sustainable and stable phase. In this context, VinFast’s commitment and vision have created a unique advantage for the company’s long-term development.
“The capture of the number-one market share in the domestic market solidifies VinFast’s position as a global green warrior,” wrote the magazine.
Meanwhile, APN News argued that VinFast’s long-term vision contrasts sharply with the short-term profit-focused business strategies commonly seen in other businesses. Vingroup and billionaire Pham Nhat Vuong’s commitment to the green transition mission will help VinFast overcome immediate challenges and increasingly solidify its position in the international market.
APN News appreciated VinFast’s multi-product, multi-market strategy, especially in the context of economic fluctuations affecting consumers’ purchasing power. VinFast has positioned itself as an indefatigable warrior with a mission to make electric vehicles more accessible to everyone: “The company has developed a diverse range of electric vehicles, catering to the needs and budgets of various customer segments,” said APN News.
At the same time, The Dubai Times evaluated that Vingroup’s motto, “Forever in Start-up Spirit,” has become a driving force for VinFast’s global expansion.
The leading news portal in the UAE also assessed that the recent entry into the Middle Eastern market is an opportunity for VinFast to seize the advantage of being a pioneer and leader in the sustainable transportation revolution globally. “The Middle East electric vehicle market is expected to register a CAGR of 28.9% up to 2028. VinFast is seizing the opportunity to meet the growing demand for electric vehicles,” wrote The Dubai Times.
