The buses will run in the Vinhomes Ocean Park urban area in Gia Lam district,
Hanoi, while awaiting the completion of procedures to connect with the city's
public transport network, according to Vinbus Deputy Director General Nguyen Van
Thanh.
Vinbus is an electric bus model manufactured and assembled by VinFast at its
Automobile Production Complex in Hai Phong city.
Each bus is equipped with an automated system able to control driving behaviour
and give warnings about unsafe situations, an on-board public address system,
free wifi, USB charging ports, and security cameras, among others.
With a battery capacity of 281 kWh, the bus can travel between 220 and 260
kilometres on a single charge. It can fully recharge in just two hours at
VinBus’s 150 kW charging station network.
VinBus is scheduled to provide public transport services in five major cities in
Vietnam: Hanoi, Hai Phong, Da Nang, Ho Chi Minh City, and Can Tho.
The company operates under a non-profit model, aiming to develop a modern public
transportation network that reduces air and noise pollution in Vietnam’s major
cities.
