VinFast Philippines is determined to further establish its presence in the local automotive industry by expanding its product portfolio as well as deploying electric vehicles (EVs) to its partner companies.
To do just that, VinFast has turned over 500 units of the VF e34 EVs to Xentro Motors. The said units will be utilized for Xentro Motors’ all-electric taxi fleet, expanding EV-powered ride-hailing operations in Metro Manila. The 500 VF e34 units are just the initial EVs that VinFast will be turning over to Xentro Motors, as it will be supplying Xentro with up to 1,000 VF e34 units.
Last November 2025, Xentro Motors partnered with VinFast for the expansion of its all-electric ride-hailing fleet. The said partnership states that VinFast will supply Xentro Motors with 1,000 units of the VF e34. The first 500 units were turned over to Xentro Motors in December 2025, and are expected to complete the delivery of the remaining units in March this year.
Xentro Motors is the automotive arm of Xentro Group of Companies, a Philippine developer known for Xentro Malls. Speaking of the latter, Xentro Malls has an extensive mall network equipped with EV charging hubs that intends to contribute to expanding the EV infrastructure network in the Philippines.
Aside from partnering with Xentro Motors, VinFast Philippines is also making progress in gaining ground in corporate fleet applications. The Vietnamese car brand said that it is now working closely with a growing roster of fleet partners, which ranges from mobility operators to technology and utilities companies.
“VinFast’s partnerships with key business fleets underscore the strength and versatility of our electric vehicle lineup. They’re built to deliver reliable, high-performance mobility across a wide range of operational needs. As we look ahead to 2026, we remain committed to advocating for greater EV adoption in the Philippines and empowering more companies to transition to sustainable, future-ready transportation solutions,” VinFast Southeast Asia CEO Toti Zara said.
VinFast shared that its current partners include Goldfields Motorsales Inc., Marstel Philippines Inc, Meralco, Emviem Telephones Service, Ride Co, and Nerio Green.
Autocar’s Take
VinFast is constantly finding ways to further establish its presence in the local automotive market. Among its initiatives in strengthening its brand presence is venturing into deploying vehicles for companies that utilizes all-electric taxi fleet.
This is seen through its EV turnover to support Xentro Motors’ all-electric taxi fleet in Metro Manila. With a committed 1,000 VF e34 units, VinFast is betting on fleet adoption as a key driver of both EV growth in the country and increasing brand awareness at the same time.
Green GSM, which is another company that features an all-electric taxi fleet, is also using VinFast vehicles. Green GSM is also continuously expanding its operations as it now also operates in Davao City, marking the company’s first expansion outside Metro Manila. The company said that its operation in Davao is part of its long-term plan to introduce a cleaner and modern transportation system across key Philippine cities.
