DNHN - In the future, the Vietnamese electric car industry will make a breakthrough to become one of the industries contributing to the country's sustainable development. Thus, the electric car industry will certainly develop strongly in the coming time.
According to a survey, in the Vietnamese market with a population of nearly 100 million people, the car ownership rate is low in the region, GDP is growing steadily, the middle class is increasing strongly, and the speed of technological development is fast, it will be one of the markets with a very large future for electric vehicle development. The Vietnam Automobile Manufacturers Association (VAMA) forecasts that Vietnam will reach one million electrified vehicles by 2028 and by 2040 the number of electric vehicles will reach 3.5 million.
One of the important factors helping the Vietnamese electric car industry to develop strongly is the strong support from the government. The policy of encouraging the use of electric cars and reducing initial investment has created a favourable environment for domestic car manufacturers. In addition, the government has also invested in clean infrastructure and clean technology, facilitating the movement of electric vehicles. As a result, the Vietnamese electric car industry has become one of the fastest-growing industries in the region.

Vietnamese car manufacturers have stepped up research and development of electric car technology. Electric car models “made in Vietnam” have appeared on the market and have been enthusiastically welcomed by consumers. These models not only meet international safety and quality standards but also have prices that are suitable for domestic consumers. This has boosted the development of the domestic electric car market and helped the Vietnamese automotive industry create a strong export market.
Another notable point is that large technology companies have also focused on the Vietnamese electric car industry. Leading global technology companies such as Google, Apple and Tesla have invested in electric car-related projects in Vietnam, from developing self-driving systems to building clean infrastructure for electric vehicles. The combination of technology and the automotive industry has created new opportunities and put the Vietnamese electric car industry among the pioneering countries in this field.
With the rapid development of the electric car industry, the Vietnamese automotive industry has created thousands of new jobs and made a significant contribution to the national economy. At the same time, the use of electric cars helps to reduce air pollution and reduce carbon emissions, contributing positively to environmental protection and improving air quality.
The future of the Vietnamese electric car industry is promising. Domestic car manufacturers will continue to invest in research and development of technology, from improving battery performance and extending the driving range per charge, to deploying fast charging systems and developing electric car-sharing services. In addition, the electric car industry will also create new business models, such as taxi services, electric car-sharing services and the production of electric car components to meet domestic demand and export to international markets.
The government will also continue to support and introduce incentive policies to promote the development of the electric car industry. Investing in clean infrastructure, facilitating the use of electric vehicles and promoting research and development of electric car technology will be top priorities. In addition, the government will also step up training and development of high-quality human resources for the electric car industry, from design engineers, and technicians to sales and service staff.
In the international market, the Vietnamese electric car industry will continue to expand and compete with international rivals. Thanks to technological breakthroughs and competitive production costs, electric car models “made in Vietnam” will have the opportunity to access the international market and meet the needs of global consumers.
The bright future of the Vietnamese electric car industry is approaching. With the promotion from the government, the commitment of car manufacturers and the positive response from consumers, the Vietnamese electric car industry will continue to become an industry that contributes greatly to the sustainable development of the country, bringing a bright future for the automotive industry and our living environment.
