In Vietnam, Vinfast is continuing strongly. What's fun here is that VAMA, the manufacturers' association, excludes Vinfast (and Hyundai). VAMA reported 3 (yes, three) BEVs sold in August, while Vinfast sold 20,161 BEVs.

Vietnam is forging its own EV path. 🚗⚡In just 2 years, it leapt from 3% to over 50% EV share. Homegrown VinFast—once laughed off—is now #1, #2, and #3. Backed by tax breaks, 150k chargers, and national pride, this isn’t catch-up. It’s a regional S-curve explosion—and there’s plenty more to come. #EV

The first time I saw a Vinfast and thought "I have no idea what I'm looking at here", I suddenly realized that this is what all cars look like to non-enthusiasts: an otherwise undifferentiated automobile-shaped object.

Vinfast announced back in January 2022 that it would cease all production of cars with internal combustion engines and switch to 100% BEV production from late 2022. And that's what it did.
