Vietnamese electric vehicle maker has inaugurated its first plant in India at Tuticorin in south Tamil Nadu. Initially, the facility will assemble two premium electric SUV models, VF 7 and VF 6, and roll out 50,000 vehicles per year. Moreover, it is scalable to 1,50,000 units annually. Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M K Stalin inaugurated the plant in the presence of VinFast Asia, CEO Pham Sanh Chau, with the roll out of the premium VF7 car. VinFast is entering India’s fast-growing EV market, which remains largely dominated by domestic brands like Tata Motors and Mahindra in the affordable segment and Hyundai and MG Motor in the premium space.
