VinFast to Launch EV Dealerships Across 27 Indian Cities, Including Delhi, Bengaluru, Pune, and More as Part of Nationwide Expansion Plan
In a significant move to accelerate its entry into one of the world’s fastest-growing EV markets, Vietnamese electric vehicle manufacturer VinFast Auto India announced it will open 32 dealerships across 27 Indian cities, in partnership with 13 dealer groups. The company plans to expand this number to 35 dealerships by the end of 2025, strengthening its retail and service presence ahead of its India debut.
This announcement comes just days before the pre-bookings open for VinFast’s electric SUV models—VF 6 and VF 7—on July 15. These developments mark a crucial step in VinFast’s strategic expansion as it aims to establish itself as a key EV player in India’s competitive auto market.
Building a Robust 3S Network Across India
VinFast’s India dealership strategy is centered around creating a full-service 3S network—Sales, Service, and Spares—to offer a seamless customer experience.
The initial dealership footprint will cover a mix of metropolitan hubs and emerging EV-ready cities, including:
Delhi, Gurugram, Noida, Bengaluru, Chennai, Hyderabad, Pune, Jaipur, Ahmedabad, Kolkata, Cochin, Bhubaneswar, Thiruvananthapuram, Chandigarh, and Lucknow.
These cities were chosen based on high EV demand, supportive infrastructure, and market growth potential.
Customer-Centric Approach and Market Readiness
Speaking on the development, Pham Sanh Chau, CEO of VinFast Asia, said:
“This partnership reinforces our focus on delivering an elevated EV experience backed by reliability, customer trust, and service excellence. As we prepare to bring our electric SUVs to Indian roads, our priority is to ensure customers across key cities have seamless access to VinFast’s world-class products and support infrastructure.”
The company’s dealer-driven approach aims to bridge product availability with robust post-sale support, giving Indian EV buyers confidence in service reliability and product longevity.
Manufacturing Plans & India Investment Strategy
VinFast’s dealership expansion aligns with its broader vision of becoming a global EV powerhouse. In addition to retail expansion, the company is investing in a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Thoothukudi, Tamil Nadu. This plant will support local production, helping reduce costs and improve supply chain efficiency for the Indian market.
With a clear commitment to Make in India, VinFast’s integrated strategy covers vehicle assembly, domestic supply chain development, and job creation—further supporting India’s EV transition goals.
Conclusion: A Bold Entry into India’s EV Race
With plans to open 32 dealerships across 27 Indian cities ahead of its EV launch, VinFast is laying a strong foundation for its India operations. From building physical infrastructure to local manufacturing, the Vietnamese EV giant is moving fast to capture market share and offer Indian consumers new choices in the electric SUV segment.
As competition heats up in India’s EV space, VinFast’s aggressive rollout strategy could make it a serious contender—backed by global expertise, deep investments, and a customer-first approach.
