"After establishing its presence in the European automotive market, VinFast is now taking its first concrete step into public transport. At Busworld Europe 2025 in Brussels, the Vietnamese manufacturer unveiled its EB 8 and EB 12 electric buses, marking the official start of its activities in the continent's electric bus segment. Drawing on operational experience from more than 300 electric buses already in service across Vietnam, the company is positioning itself as a new player in Europe's competitive urban bus landscape."
"We have a 12-meter Low Floor with three doors, immediately available for sales, and we are going to bring to the market a 2-doors Low Entry model next year. Then we will adapt based on the markets: for the Nordics we will need a 15-meter, for Germany an articulated model. I believe that in two years our offer will be complete"
