VinFast operates company-owned showrooms in high-footfall retail locations in the US, Europe, and Asia, mirroring Tesla's model to control the customer experience, maintain pricing consistency, and collect first-party customer data without dealership intermediaries.
Leverages Vingroup's VinHomes real estate developments, VinMart retail stores, and Vinpearl hospitality properties as organic brand touchpoints, reaching millions of existing Vingroup customers with VinFast brand exposure at near-zero incremental cost.
