    I hate this. I hated that the rise in private car ownership was messing up the flow of Vietnam scooter traffic. Now it’ll just be worse. I hope Vinfast is able to succeed, and VN residents buy electric scooters and cars made by their own citizens.

    At least VN just got its first subway.

      Gas engine cars are easy to disable (sometimes permanently) by puncturing the radiator. Use this information as you see fit.

      The Vinfast cars won’t be quite as susceptible though…

      I mean it has a subway in the same way Atlanta has a subway. There’s 2 lines that probably can’t get you where you’re going, and it’s always faster to take a motorcycle.

        It’s incomplete. It’s also exciting for the younger generation, and hopefully inspires positive change in the coming years.

          Theres 2 paths they can take as incomes go up and electric vehicle prices go down: effective mass transit or India.
