VinFast has signed strategic Memoranda of Understanding (MOUs) with 13 dealer partners in the Philippines to develop 27 new showrooms across the country, strengthening the electric vehicle maker’s retail and distribution network.
The expansion forms part of VinFast’s broader plan to establish 60 dealerships across the Philippines in 2026, as the company accelerates its push into the country’s growing electric vehicle market.
The 27 new showrooms will be developed across the Philippines’ three major geographical regions — Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao. The network will strengthen VinFast’s presence in key urban markets, including Metro Manila and Cebu, while expanding into emerging markets such as Cagayan de Oro, Tacloban and Subic Bay.
The expanded dealership network is expected to improve customer access to VinFast’s electric vehicle portfolio, sales and after-sales services across the country.
The latest agreements mark another step in VinFast’s strategy of working with local dealer partners to accelerate its retail footprint and build a wider EV ecosystem in the Philippines.
With the planned expansion, VinFast aims to bring its electric vehicles and related services closer to customers across both established automotive markets and high-potential emerging cities in the country.
Developed in line with VinFast’s global standards, the showrooms will offer modern and convenient spaces where customers can learn about and experience the brand’s products, as well as access sales and after-sales services. The expanded network will also improve access to electric vehicles and related services, helping meet the growing demand for EVs in the Philippine market.
Supporting VinFast in the development of its new showroom network are 13 established local partners: Elite North Auto Cars Inc., MG Gateway Mantrade Corp., Grand Canyon Multi Holdings Inc., Britannica United Motors Incorporated, VF Auto Sto Tomas Inc., GR8 Marketing Motors Inc., ARCMA Motors Corporation, Autonomics Motor Corp., Gershom Car Trading Corp., Areza Motor Sales Inc., Central Auto Resources Inc., Autolink Global Motors Inc., and Greenport Mobility Inc.
These 13 companies bring extensive experience in automotive distribution in the Philippines and share VinFast’s commitment to advancing the green transition. Their market knowledge, operational capabilities, and extensive networks will provide additional momentum for VinFast to accelerate the development of its distribution system, expand customer access, and enhance service quality across the country.
Mr. Antonio Zara, CEO of VinFast Southest Asia, said: “The Philippines is one of the key markets in VinFast’s long-term growth strategy in the region and globally. Here, we are not only focused on expanding our sales network, but also on building a sustainable foundation for growth spanning products, services, infrastructure, and the broader EV ecosystem. With the support of our local partners, VinFast will continue to expand our operations in the years ahead, gradually making green mobility a more accessible and convenient choice for Filipino consumers.”
VinFast is steadily building a comprehensive “For a Green Future” electric vehicle ecosystem across key markets in Southeast Asia. In the Philippines, VinFast continues to invest in products, services, and infrastructure to make EV ownership as convenient as possible for customers. Alongside a diverse EV lineup and attractive customer support policies, VinFast is placing a strong focus on expanding its after-sales service network and charging infrastructure with the support of V-Green and local partners. Through these efforts, the brand reaffirms its long-term commitment to investing in the Philippines and supporting the country’s transition to green mobility.
