The VinFast Minio Green, the smallest electric car in the Vietnamese market, is shown here in a recent reveal by the manufacturer.

Although still in the development phase, some technical specifications of the VinFast Minio Green have been revealed through dealerships. The Minio Green will offer two variants, the Plus and the Eco, with impressive range capabilities of 180 km and 120 km respectively on a single charge (NEDC standard). Supporting both slow AC charging up to 3.3 kW and fast DC charging at 12 kW, the Minio Green is designed for convenient urban mobility.

Powered by a rear-mounted electric motor delivering 20 kW (approximately 26.8 hp) and 65 Nm of torque, this minicar can sprint from 0 to 50 km/h in 6.5 seconds and reach a top speed of 85 km/h. With dimensions of 3,090 x 1,496 x 1,625 mm (length x width x height), a wheelbase of 2,065 mm, and a ground clearance of 155 mm, the Minio Green comfortably seats four adults.

The VinFast Minio Green showcases its sleek and modern design, featuring a distinctive logo and two characteristic plastic strips.

The vehicle features two side doors, a rear hatch, and a design that is softer and more rounded compared to the VinFast VF 3. The center of the Minio Green proudly displays the signature ‘V’ logo and two interwoven plastic strips, a hallmark of the VinFast brand. The headlamps are round, although it is not clear if they use halogen or LED bulbs. The front bumper is a simple design, painted in silver/black, and the rims, while smaller than the VF 3, are modern and complemented by plastic covers.

The VinFast Minio Green, part of the recently announced Green line of vehicles, is designed with a focus on ride-hailing services.
