VinFast has unveiled the Minio Green, a new electric vehicle designed to compete in the mini EV market, which is currently led by Chinese manufacturers. Unlike a concept car, the Minio Green is set for mass production, set to join VinFast’s other small EVs like the VF3 and VF e34. VinFast says the Minio Green is positioned as a four-wheeled alternative to motorcycles, this compact and affordable vehicle aims to provide urban commuters with a practical and efficient transportation solution.

VinFast isn’t just saying that for nothing, to put the Minio Green’s size into perspective, it sits below the VF3—a model that’s already quite compact. Its design echoes that of Chinese mini EVs but with a more rounded shape and a bit of extra character, thanks to its bug-eyed headlights and vertical taillights. The car rides on steel rims, likely to keep costs low.
The Minio Green is powered by a single rear-mounted motor, delivering 27 hp and 65 Nm of torque. Its range varies between 120 km in Eco mode and 180 km in Plus mode, with a maximum charging rate of 12 kW. For those wondering about performance, it has a top speed of 85 km/h and accelerates from zero to 50 km/h in 6.5 seconds. Pretty peppy we’d say.

Unfortunately, there are no interior photos of the Minio Green yet. It will likely feature a similar interior setup as the VF3, sporting a couple of screens for the infotainment system and the instrument cluster. According to VinFast’s site, the Minio Green is capable of seating four passengers max.
As of now, VinFast has only released a few exterior photos and performance details of the Minio Green, with pricing still under wraps. However, it’s reasonable to expect it to be even more affordable than the VF3, which is already priced at P645,000.
While the Minio Green has yet to launch, VinFast is already making its mark in the Philippines. Explore their full lineup on AutoDeal.com.ph, or if you’re on mobile, check out the official AutoDeal app, available on iOS and Android.
