Vietnamese EV maker VinFast clearly isn’t here to dip a toe in India, it’s diving straight in. After rolling out the VF6 and VF7 in September, the brand is already gearing up for its next act: a seven-seat electric MPV called the Limo Green, set to arrive in February 2026. Think of it as VinFast’s third arrow in a rapidly filling quiver, aimed squarely at India’s fast-growing family EV space. Expect it to rub shoulders with the Kia Carens Clavis EV and BYD’s eMax 7 when it lands.
Pham Sanh Chau, VinFast Asia’s CEO, has been very vocal about where India sits in the company’s global roadmap, somewhere between ‘priority’ and ‘non-negotiable.’ In just a few months, VinFast has stitched together a 26-dealer network here and has already committed to a launch cadence of one new model every six months. Ambitious? Absolutely. Surprising? Not anymore.
The Limo Green is also the opening move in an even bigger 2026 push. Soon after its debut, VinFast plans to bring its Vietnam-born ride-hailing service GSM (Green & Smart Mobility) to Indian roads. And that’s not all, the brand is eyeing the electric two-wheeler space too. Models like the Evo, Feliz, Klara and Vero are being lined up for a Q2 FY26 entry, putting them right in the crosshairs of TVS, Bajaj, Ather, Ola and the rest of India’s EV scooter battalion.
Don’t mistake any of this for a soft launch. VinFast has already committed $2 billion to its India plans, with $500 million sunk into its upcoming Tamil Nadu plant in Thoothukudi, which can build up to 50,000 vehicles a year. And unlike Tesla’s CBU-first approach, VinFast is going all-in on localisation from day one.
