VinFast just signaled a major shift in the EV market by processing 3,520 orders on Saturday, March 28, 2026—a massive volume achieved without the help of festive discounts, quarter-end pushes, or coordinated marketing campaigns.

As Philippine fuel prices continue their relentless climb, VinFast is offering a massive financial reprieve by extending its free-charging program through March 31, 2029. Available to both new and existing owners at V-Green stations, this initiative shields both commuters and transport professionals from rising pump costs across the Philippines, Vietnam, Indonesia, and India. By zeroing out "fuel" expenses for the next several years, VinFast is positioning its EVs as the ultimate hedge against market volatility.
