Vo Quang Hue, deputy general director of Vingroup in charge of Vinfast project, said the deals reflect Vinfast’s commitment to bring out safe, convenient and high-quality electric buses for a green future of the Vietnamese people, adding that it will be a pioneering solution to changing public transportation in the country.
Vinfast sets target that by 2025 its factory can produce 500,000 vehicles per year and head to be a leading auto firm in Southeast Asia.
