“a multitude of issues....”
Well that certainly sounds reassuring
More EV crap. Yawn...
There are a TON of VinFast in Vietnam, loads of them.
They are working the production bugs out here, by the time production begins in America, we will have a good $13,000 car, made in Americca.
At least after the rebate. 😎
Looks like 2026.
This is where EV’s should have begun, not as replacement of gas/diesel powered sedans, but as small city-suburban vehicles that neither would have needed a long range, giant battery packs, long recharge times and high prices. Those cars would not have needed any state or federal subsidies either. From there, gradually, under 100% free market conditions, the cars would have evolved, grown some market share and grown in size as well.
Instead the EV makers went straight to trying to replace the best gas/diesel cars in the market. Now the manufacturers and dealers are left with inventory they can’t sell.
Needs a new name. How about VinSlow? VinPoky? VinSubsidized? VinEgar?
As far as I know, there are NO specific crash testing requirements to ensure that EVs are safe. So they aren’t.
Just what we need another POS EV.
I as extremely lucky to recently get to sons a week on St Thomas in the USVI. Automotively it’s a weird place. They drive US standard left-hand drive cars but they drive them on the left ala Britain.
The roads are tiny, gasoline is $5/gal snd top speed limit is 35mph. There is near constant bright sunshine. It’s possibly the best sort of environment for an EV
Anywhere else they suck.
Let me try to post this:

That is the VinFast VF3 (hopefully)
