Automotive and Motorcycle Manufacturing Capabilities in Vietnam, 2015–2022

In 2015, the annual production volume of Vietnamese 2-wheeler and 4-wheeler vehicle manufacturing industry was growing positively by 6.4% year-on-year. Following, 2-wheeler and 4-wheeler vehicle manufacturing industry is forecasted to experience a stable growth at a CAGR of 6.7% in Vietnam during 2015 – 2022.

The 2-wheeler vehicle manufacturing industry has reached at a maturity stage in Vietnam, mainly due to the high usage rate and its role as the main transport solution among residents. Besides, limited road infrastructure expansion and low highway rate have caused serious traffic congestion in the city areas, such as Ha Noi and Ho Chi Minh City for example. Nevertheless, 2-wheeler vehicle is still highly favourable and adapted by Vietnamese, due to price-friendly and convenience factors.

Under comparison, the 4-wheeler vehicle manufacturing industry is considered as a new emerging industry in Vietnam which is in fast-growing stage at the moment. Country’s development, higher urbanization rate, rising working opportunity, the improvements of income and purchasing power are driving the application demand and purchase desire of Vietnamese.
