With the guiding principle of "Placing customers at the forefront," this collaboration underscores VinFast's dedication to supporting both French and German communities in their shift towards eco-conscious transportation and is a pivotal moment in the Vietnamese electric vehicle manufacturer's endeavor to expand its customer base in the European market.

Mr. Jean-Christophe Mercier, Vice-President Aftersales and Customer Ownership Experience VinFast Europe, said: "VinFast strongly believes that Mobivia's extensive after-sales service network and skilled technical team will bolster customer confidence in the VinFast brand, ensuring an unparalleled experience for our European customers."
