Vietnam carmaker VinFast to show EV ecosystem at CES 2023 in January

Electric vehicle maker VinFast announced Tuesday its participation in the Consumer Electronics Show 2023 on January 5-8 with a showcase of its EV ecosystem including four electric SUV models, four electric bikes, and VF 8 test drives.

At CES 2023 in Las Vegas, Nevada in the U.S., VinFast will display four electric cars - the VF 6, VF 7, VF 8 and VF 9 - from small crossovers to large five- and seven-passenger SUVs.

Among them, the VF 8 was recently launched, and the first vehicle shipment arrived in California on December 20.

CES attendees can test drive the VF 8 in two special areas around the convention center. One area will be a ride-along experience with VinFast’s product experts. The second opportunity will be for those customers who elect to drive themselves on a closed track provided by CES.

The VF 6, VF 7 and VF 9 are currently under development and will be launched in 2023. VinFast has not disclosed the launching dates.

The carmaker of Vietnam’s largest conglomerate Vingroup will also display its electric bike concepts at CES 2023 for the first time. These will join the previously launched electric vehicles, e-scooters, electric buses and clean energy solutions to complete its full ecosystem of electric products.

The four electric vehicle models and four electric bike concepts will be displayed at the VinFast booth in the West Hall of the Las Vegas Convention Center in booth 5501.

VinFast’s press event at CES will take place on January 5 at the booth at 10:15 AM with the test track located at WP-9, Las Vegas Convention Center. The pavilion will also be open to the public and test drives will be held from January 5-8, the firm said.
