VinFast Signs Six Dealer Agreements to Storm Indonesia's Booming Electric Scooter Market in 2026

VinFast, Vietnam's leading electric vehicle maker under Vingroup, has inked memoranda of understanding with six Indonesian dealers to penetrate the country's vast e-scooter segment.

These partnerships aim to establish showroom networks and distribution channels in densely populated urban hubs including the Jabodetabek area, West Java, East Java, and Bali.

Strategic Push into Southeast Asia's EV Frontier

VinFast plans to roll out its electric scooter lineup, featuring models like Flazz, Evo, Feliz II, and Viper, starting in the second quarter of 2026.

The company has maintained a presence in Indonesia for two years, having introduced passenger SUVs, commercial vehicles, and initiated construction of a manufacturing facility in Subang.

Complementing the launch, V-Green is piloting battery-swapping stations in Jabodetabek, enabling riders to swiftly exchange depleted batteries for charged ones.

Impact on Indonesia's Massive Two-Wheeler Market

Indonesia boasts one of the world's largest scooter markets, with annual sales in the millions, though electric models currently hold a minor share amid rising government incentives for green transport.

This expansion could accelerate e-scooter adoption, supporting Indonesia's emission-reduction goals and fostering sustainable urban mobility.

Historically, VinFast's global ambitions have driven investments in overseas production and diverse EV offerings tailored to regional needs.

Looking ahead, additional scooter models may join the lineup based on local demand and infrastructure evolution.

The move aligns with VinFast's broader strategy to introduce e-scooters in key markets like the Philippines, India, Thailand, and Malaysia.

These dealer ties—PT. IB Motor, PT. Sentrik, PT. Axara Marani, PT. Sukses Sejati Indonesia, PT. Tangguh Inti Motor, and PT. Kiki Motor Persada—signal a robust foundation for long-term growth in Indonesia's e-mobility landscape.
