VinFast Modern Production Line

Designing, engineering, and manufacturing cars is not an easy thing to do. It is a time-consuming, demanding, and expensive process from start to finish. As a young company just starting, it can also be challenging to find qualified and loyal employees who can do their best to make the right product. VinFast is rapidly becoming known for its modern production line, which features fewer people and more robots to help streamline the production process.

New Massive Production Facility

In September 2017, VinFast opened its state-of-the-art 828-acre manufacturing plant, where roughly 90% of its automotive production is automated. This plant, in particular, will serve as the main production headquarters for years to come, with the goal of producing 950,000 vehicles by 2026.

Robots Save Time and Money

People mess up; it is a natural part of being human. However, robots do not. While there still needs to be employees at VinFast factories who help to design software and input information that tells the robots what to do, ultimately, they are perfect in their execution of a given task. Plus, it can save time and money when retooling or adjusting manufacturing techniques for new models or simple model changes and modifications.

Fewer People Means Fewer Injuries

Because of the streamlined process of robot production, VinFast is hoping for, and so far succeeding at, having fewer production issues, which will often wreak havoc on a young or small car company and even larger companies during the first year of a new model. Fewer people on the production line also means a much lower rate of incidents where someone could get injured. Automotive manufacturing facilities are filled with heavy machinery that is constantly moving. There are heavy vehicles going through the assembly process. Accidents happen. With robots, that isn’t as much of an issue.

New Production Facilities

As of now, all current vehicle production is taking place in Haiphong, Vietnam, with battery production in Ha Tinh, Vietnam. VinFast is also expanding a new production facility in North Carolina. The capacity to manufacture up to 150,000 vehicles per year in America will greatly assist VinFast in achieving its future goals and success.

What Are The Details Of The VinFast 10-year 125K Mile Warranty?

VinFast offers the absolute best warranty on all of their new cars. When compared with other legacy automakers, you would think such a young company wouldn’t be willing or able to guarantee their batteries’ overall quality and performance. While buying an electric vehicle is a learning experience when it comes to purchasing or leasing based on range, features, options, style, and, of course, warranty, VinFast aims to put customers at ease knowing they are taken care of.

A Decade With Two Warranties

Whether you are looking at the soon-to-be-released VF7, VF9, or the currently available VF8, every new car has a 10-year, 125,000-mile bumper-to-bumper warranty and a 10-year, unlimited-mile battery warranty. Both of these warranties are transferable to the next owner should you choose to sell or trade your car or if owners decide to hand their VinFast down to their children for a safe, reliable electric vehicle. The pair of 10-year warranties also entitles customers to free 24/7 mobile service.

All-Encompassing Mobile App

The all-in-one VinFast mobile app for Apple and Android devices allows owners to schedule service appointments, check the status of their booking, as well as approve any potential repairs that need to be done. In addition to service and warranty features, the mobile app also allows owners to plan a trip that will enable them to easily find chargers on the way, pay for charging built into the app, as well as check the state of charge.

Comparing The Coverage To Others

When comparing the VinFast warranty coverage to other automakers, you will see that all EV models on the market have a pretty good warranty. The best you will see from most EVs from Chevrolet, Acura, Mercedes-Benz, Kia, Hyundai, Volkswagen, Honda, Audi, Jaguar, and the like, is about 4-5 years up to about 60,000 miles of bumper-to-bumper coverage and ten years or up to 155,000 miles of warranty for the battery system. Every VinFast model comes with a 10-year, 125,000-mile bumper-to-bumper warranty with a 10-year, unlimited-mile battery warranty. There is no EV company quite like VinFast when it comes to taking care of customers’ needs in the next decade.

We look forward to serving you.
