How to spot one

Look for

  • A closed-off nose and V-shaped daytime-running lights define the front.16
  • Rear cues: L-shaped LED lamps and a wide reflector repeating the V motif.317
  • Look for two-tone 18-inch wheels.17
  • Xanh SM GreenCar taxis wear cyan paint.18

Year by year

  1. 2021

    The initial color list included Aurora Blue, Mystique Red and Cormorant Brown.4

  2. February 2022

    VinFast Blue, Sunset Orange and Crimson Red joined; Mystique Red orders ended. New-color deliveries were planned for June.19

  3. 2022–2023

    The 2023 model kept the 2022 styling and comfort equipment, so bodywork alone will not distinguish them.10
