VinFast will introduce its electric bus range in the United States through a partnership with
NexMove, with certified vehicles expected to begin deliveries in the first quarter of 2028.
VinFast announced its entry into the U.S. electric bus market at
APTA 2026 TRANSform & EXPO in Chicago, where the Vietnamese manufacturer disclosed an initial partnership agreement with
NexMove, a joint venture between Transportation Management Services (TMS) and Zeem Solutions.
Under the agreement, NexMove will offer VinFast electric buses to U.S. customers through an
as-a-service model covering vehicles, charging, maintenance and operations. Before homologated vehicles become available, demonstration buses will be deployed at Zeem EV charging depots for evaluation by fleet operators and transit agencies.
The U.S. announcement follows VinFast’s expansion of its electric bus activities outside Vietnam. The manufacturer
entered the European electric bus segment with the EB8 and EB12 at Busworld Europe 2025. In May 2026, Sustainable Bus reported from the company’s Hai Phong industrial complex that
European-specification EB8 and EB12 models were under development, with the plant stating an annual bus production capacity of 3,000 units.
