VinFast continued its Southeast and South Asian rollout in 2026. Following the launch of 20 electric-motorcycle dealerships in Indonesia in July and 21 showrooms in the Philippines in August, the company expanded its Indonesian footprint through a strategic Memorandum of Understanding with Gowa Motor Group. This joint venture aims to establish a minimum of 30 showrooms and service centers across Indonesia, supporting VinFast’s global goal of adding over 150 new showrooms.

In India, VinFast reached a milestone by inaugurating its 60th 3S (sales, service, spare parts) outlet in Patna, Bihar. Located on the NH-30 Bypass Road in Paijawa and operated by Patliputra Motors Private Limited under Harsh Raj, the 11,500 sq ft facility includes a 3,000 sq ft display area. CEO Tapan Ghosh stated that this expansion demonstrates the company’s rapid growth beyond tier-1 cities and creates new opportunities in eastern India. 

VinFast aims to reach 75 dealerships in more than 60 Indian cities by the end of 2026. The Indian network currently offers the VF 6 and VF 7 electric SUVs—both five-star Bharat NCAP rated—and the VF MPV 7 seven-seater, supported by a 10-year/200,000 km warranty and three years of complimentary maintenance and roadside assistance.
