VinFast Rolls Out First VF MPV 7 From Indonesia Plant, Strengthening Southeast Asia EV Push

VinFast has officially rolled out the first VinFast VF MPV 7 from its manufacturing plant in Subang, West Java, marking a major milestone in the company’s localization strategy and expansion across Southeast Asia’s growing electric vehicle market.

The announcement was made during a four-day experiential event held at Central Park Mall in Jakarta, where Indonesian customers, partners, and media representatives were invited to test-drive the all-electric MPV and explore its advanced features and spacious interior.

The rollout highlights VinFast’s commitment to increasing local production capabilities in Indonesia, one of the region’s fastest-growing EV markets. The Subang plant, inaugurated in December 2025, forms a key part of the company’s long-term global manufacturing strategy.

Kariyanto Hardjosoemarto described the VF MPV 7 as a strategic product designed specifically for modern urban families in Indonesia.

“The rollout of the first VF MPV 7 from the Subang plant marks an important milestone in our localization journey,” he said. “It enhances competitiveness while delivering intelligent and accessible electric vehicles tailored to local market needs.”

The Subang facility spans 171 hectares and is expected to receive investments exceeding USD 1 billion across multiple phases. Once fully operational, the plant aims to produce up to 350,000 vehicles annually for domestic and export markets.

Since entering Indonesia around two years ago, VinFast has rapidly expanded its dealership network, charging infrastructure partnerships, and financing programs, positioning itself as a key player in the country’s accelerating transition toward electric mobility.
