Vietnam scooter market new launches

Entities: Honda Motor Co., Ltd · Vietnam · Vario 125 · Cub House Saigon · Moto Dong Tháp

Overview

In mid‑July 2026, Chinese manufacturer Haojue entered Vietnam with the VX125 Tiger Shark, a 125 cc scooter priced around 29 million VND and equipped for dense urban traffic. A few weeks later, Honda released a limited‑edition SH150i Vetro 2‑in‑1, offering two transparent colour pairings, dual‑channel ABS, traction control and a premium price of 235 million VND, with production capped at 200 units per configuration.

Continuing the rapid diversification, Honda officially unveiled its 2027 Vario 125 on 21 July, available in Special and Street trims priced from 41.9 million to 42.9 million VND (VAT included). The model retains a 125 cc Euro 4 engine with Idling‑Stop, adds a roof‑rack‑style bodywork, USB‑C charging, Smart‑Key, LCD panel and 18‑litre under‑seat storage, though it omits ABS. Competitor Yamaha’s Gear 125 is positioned at a lower price point, highlighting a growing price‑segment competition within Vietnam’s scooter market.
