VinFast has started local production of the VinFast VF MPV 7 at its manufacturing plant in West Java, expanding the company’s production operations in the Indonesian market.

The VF MPV 7 rolled off the production line at VinFast’s Subang facility less than six months after the plant was officially inaugurated in December 2025.

The seven-seat electric multi-purpose vehicle joins the VinFast VF 3, VinFast VF 5, VinFast VF 6 and VinFast VF 7 among the models currently being produced at the site.

VinFast said the Subang plant covers 171 hectares and is expected to receive more than $1 billion in investment across multiple development phases.

Future expansion plans are expected to increase annual production capacity to as many as 350,000 vehicles to support both Indonesian demand and exports to regional markets.

Kariyanto Hardjosoemarto, chief executive of VinFast Indonesia, said the VF MPV 7 is intended to strengthen the company’s position in Indonesia’s electric vehicle market.

“The VF MPV 7 is a strategic product within VinFast’s electric vehicle portfolio in Indonesia, reaffirming our long-term investment commitment and sustainable development vision for the market,” Hardjosoemarto said.

“The rollout of the first VF MPV 7 from the Subang plant marks an important milestone in our localisation journey, enhancing competitiveness while delivering high-quality, intelligent, and accessible electric vehicles tailored to the real-world needs of modern urban families in Indonesia,” he added.

The company said the VF MPV 7 is priced in Jakarta from 420 million rupiah ($23,520) for the battery-included version.

Customers can also purchase the vehicle through VinFast’s battery subscription model, which lowers the initial vehicle price to 345 million rupiah ($19,320), with battery subscription fees starting at 880,000 rupiah ($49) per month.

VinFast said the first 2,000 buyers will receive cashback incentives worth 16 million rupiah ($896), while customers will also have access to free charging through the V-Green charging network in Indonesia until March 31, 2029.
