en.Wedoany.com Reported - Vietnam's rapidly growing electric vehicle market is driving the synchronous construction of charging infrastructure, forcing the government and enterprises to accelerate the improvement of the legal framework and expand the public charging network. Pham Van Quan, Deputy Director of the Industrial Bureau under the Ministry of Industry and Trade of Vietnam, pointed out that to ensure the sustainable development of the EV market, infrastructure, technical standards, and the legal framework need to be prepared simultaneously.

Data released by VinFast shows that in the first four months of 2026, the company delivered a total of 78,458 electric vehicles of various models, an increase of 75.56% compared to the same period last year. Experts believe that the completeness of charging pile infrastructure has become one of the key factors determining the speed of Vietnam's transition to green transportation.

Currently, the Ministry of Industry and Trade and the Ministry of Science and Technology of Vietnam have formulated 18 standards and regulations related to charging piles, charging stations, and charging batteries. According to government requirements, the relevant legal system will continue to be improved within 2026, providing a foundation for the safe and efficient operation of this market. At the enterprise level, Huang He, General Manager of VinFast's Vietnamese electric motorcycle market, stated that the company, together with its partners, has built a network with 150,000 charging ports for cars and electric motorcycles, and has added 99 high-power charging stations. These charging stations can serve up to 100 electric vehicles simultaneously, reducing charging time to about 15 minutes. Additionally, 150,000 battery swap cabinets have been installed nationwide. For electric motorcycles, the public battery swap system is considered an important measure to enhance user convenience.

Vietnam's transition to electric vehicles is also driven by policy support and the trend of green consumption. According to the Ministry of Industry and Trade, a number of preferential policies have been introduced to support vehicle transformation, with EV users eligible for registration tax benefits, tax reductions, and green credit support. VinFast has also launched support programs such as installment purchase plans, free charging, free battery swapping, and "trade-in gasoline cars for electric vehicles."

Experts believe that the development speed of the EV market in the next phase will be highly dependent on the capacity to improve charging infrastructure, the synergy of supportive policies, and the readiness of the national energy system. A widespread, safe, and convenient public charging network will be a key factor in boosting consumer confidence and accelerating the progress of Vietnam's green transportation transition in the coming years.
