The VinFast VF 3 is the best-selling vehicle in Vietnam in February.

New light vehicle sales in Vietnam drop -13.1% year-on-year in February to 32,261due to the Lunar New Year negatively impacting the number of opening days. However thanks to a fantastic January figure the year-to-date tally is up 35.3% to 91,180. Local hero VinFast falls significantly faster than its home market but at 30.7% share it beats its January share (27.4%) to account for 28.6% after two months. Toyota (+24.9%) defies the negative market and climbs back up four spots on January to return to its traditional 2nd place. Thaco-Kia (-21.1%) struggles but repeats at #3 ahead of Hyundai (+1.9%) and Ford (-10.3%).

Over in the models charts, the VinFast (-56.3%) is back to the #1 spot it held over the Full Year 2025 despite collapsing year-on-year. #1 last month and YTD, the VinFast Limo Green holds 5.6% share. In fact VinFast monopolises the Top 5 for the first time with the VF 5 (-46%) at #3, the new MPV 7 at #4 and the VF 6 (-47.9%) at #5. The Mazda CX-5 (+9.2%) is the best of the rest above the Toyota Hilux (+386.6%) and Ford Ranger (-27.2%). Notice also the VinFast VF 7 (+41.6%) up 8 ranks on January to #9, the Hyundai Creta up 112.9% and the Toyota Yaris Cross up 122.3%.
