Vietnamese electric vehicle manufacturer VinFast announced today a strategic expansion of its European distribution network through a new partnership with German automotive retailer Autohaus Hübsch.
The agreement establishes VinFast's first dealerships in Germany, with two showrooms opening in Chemnitz and Werdau. Both locations will operate under the company's comprehensive 3S model, providing sales, service, and support functions to customers.
This partnership marks a significant shift in VinFast's European strategy, moving from direct sales to a dealer-based model that the company has already implemented in other global markets.
VinFast has revealed plans to rapidly expand its dealer network across major urban centers in Germany, France, and the Netherlands in the coming months.
The company's European lineup currently includes the B-segment VF 6 and D-segment VF 8 models, which come with industry-competitive warranties of 7 years/160,000 km and 10 years/200,000 km respectively. VinFast also provides customers access to over 850,000 charging ports across 30 European countries.
This European expansion follows VinFast's entry into several Asian and Middle Eastern markets during 2024, alongside continued development of its North American operations. The company reports meeting its global sales targets last year and achieving market leadership in its home country of Vietnam.
