Hanoi (VNA) – VinFast Automaker, a subsidiary of Vingroup, announced on November 12 that it delivered over 11,000 electric vehicles (EVs) in October, raising the total deliveries to more than 51,000 units, securing its position as the top-selling car brand in Vietnam in the first ten months of 2024.

The VF 3 and VF 5 were among the best-selling models, with nearly 5,000 and over 2,600 units sold, respectively.

Other models, including the VF 6, VF 7, VF 8, VF 9, and VF e34, also posted impressive sales numbers, reflecting consumers' growing preference for electric vehicles and the green mobility trend.

VinFast’s achievement as Vietnam's best-selling car brand marks a significant turning point for the domestic automotive industry. Within just five years of entering the market, VinFast has not only established a strong presence but also officially surpassed foreign car brands to claim the largest market share. Remarkably, it also became the first EV brand to outpace traditional petrol-powered brands, leading the market just two years after its transition to a pure-electric company./.
