As this electric bus is noiseless and emission-free, passengers will not feel carsick and road users will not feel uncomfortable from the smell of fuel and noise.
The first VinFast-branded electric buses will be operated by the VinBus Transport Service Company under VinGroup. The company will launch a mobile app called VinBus, which will be connected with the Group’s VinID app to offer bus route information to passengers.
VinBus will initially run its buses in Hanoi, HCMC and Phu Quoc Island off the southern Kien Giang Province, with 150-200 buses put into service. The electric bus service will be available from 5 a.m. to 10 p.m. everyday.
