VinFast’s Rapid U.S. Expansion – And the Dealerships Leading the Charge

VinFast’s Rapid U.S. Expansion – And the Dealerships Leading the Charge

VinFast, the ambitious Vietnamese electric vehicle manufacturer, is making waves in the U.S. market. With a $2 billion manufacturing plant in North Carolina, an expanding dealership network, and a competitive pricing strategy, VinFast is positioning itself as a major player in the EV space.

A Growing U.S. Presence: Manufacturing & Dealership Expansion

At the heart of VinFast’s U.S. expansion is its new factory in North Carolina, set to begin production in July 2024. This facility will have an initial capacity of 150,000 vehicles annually, producing models like the VF 8 and VF 9—both designed to compete in the midsize and large EV segments.

Beyond manufacturing, VinFast is aggressively growing its dealership network. In early 2024, the company had just five U.S. dealer partners. By November 2024, that number had grown to 18, with a goal of reaching 125 dealer locations nationwide.

This dealer-first approach is critical to VinFast’s success. Dealerships provide the local market expertise and customer support that many EV shoppers still rely on. That’s why dealers such as **VinFast of Lisle, Premier VinFast, and Ewing VinFast of Plano** are leading the way—bringing VinFast EVs to more American drivers and making the shopping experience seamless.

How VinFast Dealers Are Using Lectrium’s EV Sales Tools

Helping a customer purchase an EV isn’t just about selling a car—it’s about guiding them to make an informed choice that fits their lifestyle. That’s why leading VinFast dealers, including VinFast of Lisle, Premier VinFast, and Ewing VinFast of Plano, are leveraging Lectrium’s EV Savings Badge and Range Map to educate and engage EV shoppers, while bringing more qualified leads to their sales teams.

  • EV Savings Badge – Helps customers understand cost savings compared to gas vehicles, breaking down fuel and maintenance savings in an easy-to-read format.
  • EV Range Map – Allows shoppers to enter their address and visualize the real-world driving range of VinFast EVs, reducing range anxiety and simplifying the decision-making process.

By using these interactive tools directly on their Vehicle Detail Pages (VDP), these dealerships are not just selling EVs—they’re educating customers and making the transition to electric smoother for everyone.

VinFast’s Pricing & Model Expansion

To make EVs more accessible, VinFast recently announced price reductions of 2%–14% across most models and eliminated its battery rental program, simplifying the buying process.

The upcoming VF 3—an affordable urban EV starting at $20,000—is expected to attract budget-conscious buyers looking for a practical electric vehicle.

What’s Next for VinFast & Its Dealers?

VinFast’s success in the U.S. depends on strong dealer partnerships, financial backing, and smart pricing strategies. With a $1 billion investment from JTA Investment Qatar and a planned doubling of global EV deliveries in 2025, VinFast is making serious moves in the industry.

And with tools built for electric models, such as Lectrium’s EV Savings Badge and Range Map, VinFast dealers are helping customers feel more confident in making the switch to electric.
