VinFast Auto will speak and showcase its VF 9 EV at the United Nations summit on climate change, COP28 in Dubai UAE
COP28 is expected to host more than 70,000 delegates, including heads of state and world leaders, to build consensus and facilitate progress on climate action among parties, delegates and thousands of non-government organisations, companies, youth groups, and other stakeholders.
Vinfast cars are already sold in the EU and the USA by the manufacturer that stopped making ICE cars and focused solely on EVs for the past two years. When it launched in the USA earlier this year initial stock prices valued the company above General Motors and Ford.
The Vietnamese delegation will be led by Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh, and include representatives of government agencies, organisations, and leading Vietnamese corporates. Among them, VinFast is honored to speak and display its EV at COP28.
Madame Le Thi Thu Thuy, Vingroup Vice Chairwoman and Global CEO of VinFast, will join global leaders in a panel discussion on “Strengthening Sustainable Supply Chain Resilience.” This is an important platform, and represents an opportunity for VinFast to discuss green mobility solutions and sustainable development strategies to support a more sustainable future for generations to come.
Madame Thuy said: “We are honored to be playing an active role at COP28, sharing our experiences in building and maintaining sustainable supply chains, and exploring how, together, we can further contribute to the world’s sustainable development. COP28 is an important forum to promote innovation and advocate for actions to address climate change. As an EV maker leading the way in green mobility, we are committed to continuously bringing mobility solutions that are greener, smarter, and more accessible for everyone.”
In addition to participating at COP28, VinFast is showcasing its highest-end model, the VinFast VF 9, for the first time in the region, from November 30 to December 12, 2023.
