The Vietnamese brand has achieved various accomplishments. Not just in sales, but also in preparing a supporting ecosystem.
All the positive results obtained by VinFast in Indonesia are also thanks to the role of many parties. One of them is the media through its reporting.
Taking place at the InterContinental Bali Hotel, VinFast held an event titled Vcreator Summit 2025. They gave appreciation to several media from a number of platforms, ranging from print, online to television.
“This is not just a dinner. But a celebration of collaboration, creativity, and trust,” said Kariyanto Hardjosoemarto, CEO of VinFast Indonesia in Jimbaran, Bali, (20/12).

Starting its journey by introducing the brand to the people of Indonesia, VinFast continues to grow and establish strong roots.
Capitalizing on superior products, ecosystem development, strategic partnerships, and a long-term commitment in Indonesia.
VinFast considers Indonesia its second home. Therefore, they established an independent factory in just 17 months.
The 171-hectare assembly facility is claimed to be able to produce 50 thousand units per year.
The total investment value disbursed reached USD 300 million or around IDR 4.8 trillion.
The VinFast factory in Subang, West Java is believed to be producing the VF3 model as a start. The compact electric car is said to have great potential in Indonesia.
KatadataOTO, as one of the online media present at the Vcreator Summit 2025 event, received an award.

Through this event, VinFast wants to emphasize its commitment to promoting the automotive and electrification narrative, especially in a language that is more easily understood by the general public.
“Vingroup was formed by vision, resilience, and continuous innovation over more than 32 years of relentless development,” said Kariyanto.
As a company, Vingroup does not only operate in the automotive sector. But this Vietnamese brand also works in real estate, tourism, entertainment, healthcare services, education, as well as social and economic activities.
In Indonesia, VinFast is committed to achieving 40 percent product localization by 2026, then increasing to 60 percent by 2029 and subsequently to 80 percent by 2030.
