Choosing Savannakhet to expand the service is part of Xanh SM Laos' plan to develop electric taxi services in Laos, while contributing to popularizing green mobility solutions to the local population and international tourists.

In addition, the expansion of Xanh SM Laos' services in Savannakhet will also contribute to creating hundreds of jobs for locals with comprehensive training programs, stable incomes, and comprehensive welfare policies.

Thanks to the outstanding advantages of VinFast electric vehicles, which are zero-emission and noise-free, Xanh SM Laos has made a strong first impression on the Lao people after its launch in Vientiane on November 9, 2023. The Xanh SM Laos app attracted over 200,000 downloads within the first month, and quickly rose to the top of the "Free Apps" and "Travel Apps" categories on the App Store and Google Play.
