Vietnamese electric vehicles maker VinFast will debut its public transport solution, VinFast electric buses at Busworld Europe 2025, Brussels in October.
By adding its advanced, smart buses to its European offerings, VinFast is asserting its position as an all-electric vehicle manufacturer with one of the most comprehensive and wide-ranging e-mobility ecosystems. The launch of VinFast e-bus is designed to directly contribute to Europe’s green transition, broadening the zero-emission public transport network.
At the event, the largest bus and coach exhibition of its type in the world, VinFast will showcase two advanced electric bus models, the EB 8 and the EB 12.
Both models are engineered to meet EU standards, with the EB 12 being fully homologated to meet UNECE and CE regulations. It is specifically designed for European operations, taking into account local regulations and infrastructure, from size and configuration to range and charging compatibility, to ensure a smooth integration into the market.
The EB 8 and EB 12 come equipped with LFP battery packs from trusted global leaders like CATL and Gotion, offering capacities up to 422 kWh and a real-world range of up to 400 km. Fast charging at up to 140 kW ensures a full turnaround within 2 to 3 hours.
The onboard smart systems include Passive ADAS features such as Blind Spot Detection, Intelligent Speed Assist, Forward Collision Warning, and Drowsiness Detection. Passenger amenities, including Wi-Fi, USB charging ports, infotainment systems, and a kneeling suspension, complete the experience.
VinFast will also reveal its strategy for entering the European public transport market, which is aligned with the roll out of its e-SUVs: centered on the formation of strategic partnerships with leading specialists and suppliers in Europe’s transport and infrastructure sectors, to ensure a strong and sustainable presence for VinFast electric bus across the continent.
As a proven public e-mobility solution, the VinFast electric bus line has been operating reliably in Vietnam for four years, serving as a cornerstone of the country’s first-ever electric bus network.
In Vietnam, VinFast has established a fully operational electric bus ecosystem, producing, deploying, and maintaining fleets that power public transit in major cities. The Company has a production capacity of 1,500-2,000 electric buses per year, with all manufacturing processes being CE-compliant.
