EV Scooter
VinFast has officially indicated that by 2026 its electric scooters will be available in India. The company is in the process of choosing scooters from its global lineup that are best suited for Indian traffic, everyday utility and road conditions. A detailed feasibility study is underway to understand which model will be able to perform better in India.
Launch
VinFast sells many popular electric scooters in international markets, including Feliz, Klara Neo, Evo Grand, Vero X, Vento S and Theon S. Their motors are side-mounted or hub-mounted, which can reach a top speed of 60 to 99 kmph. The battery range varies by model and can go up to about 160 km. These figures are for the Vietnam market, but before launch in India these scooters will be tuned according to the requirements here
Model
VinFast is testing its scooters on several levels before launching in India. The company is paying attention to the everyday travel needs of Indian users, especially the emphasis on understanding the robustness of powertrain in conditions such as long commute, poor roads, excess heat and rain. The final product selection will be based on performance testing, durability analysis and regulatory approvals. The launch is likely to take place by the end of 2026, possibly at festivals when vehicle sales are highest.
Competition
The electric scooter segment is already very strong in India. Brands such as TVS iQube, Ather, Bajaj Chetak and Hero Vida have taken a deep grip in the market. In such a situation, VinFast can get a tough competition in every segment from entry-level to premium. To succeed in a price-sensitive market like India, VinFast must adopt the right pricing strategy.
Along with this, reducing the cost of parts and production in localisation i.e. India will also be a big factor. To win the trust of customers, the company will have to prepare strong charging infrastructure and after-sales network from the beginning.
