VinFast has plans to expand its global market, including exploring the entire Southeast Asian market. Now, Malaysia is one of the countries the company wants to explore from Vietnam.

The steps made by this company are not kidding. In fact, one of the models VF e34 was caught on camera being tested in neighboring countries while proving that VinFast intends to sell vehicles in the market.

The car has a fairly compact dimension with a length of 4,300 mm, a width of 1,793 mm, a height of 1,613 mm, and a wheelbase of 2,611 mm. It is smaller than its rivals such as BYD Atto 3 with a length of 4,455 mm, a width of 1,875 mm, a height of 1,615 mm, and a wheelbase of 2,720 mm.
