Vietnam May 2026: VinFast monopolises Top 5 for 4th month in a row, EC Van in Top 10
The VinFast EC Van breaks into the Top 10 in May.
New vehicle sales in Vietnam soar 19.2% year-on-year in May to 53,359 units, meaning the year-to-date tally is now up 33.2% to 276,013. Local EV powerhouse VinFast (+69.7%) continues to evolve in a league of its own at 36.6% share, albeit below the record 40.9% it hit last month. Toyota (-0.2%) is stable at 10.5% share, followed by Thaco-Kia (+19.6%) and Hyundai (-3.5%). Ford (-13.8%) is in difficulty at #5 whereas Mitsubishi (+43.2%) surges below. Lexus (+105.4%) and Honda (+26%) also make themselves noticed.
Model-wise, VinFast monopolises the Top 5 again and places the new Limo Green at the top for the third straight month and the 6th time in the past 7 months. The VF 3 (+20.8%) and VF 5 (-19.7%) complete a podium identical to April and YTD. The new MPV 7 overtakes the VF 6 (+20.2%) to rank #4 overall. The best of the rest is the Toyota Yaris Cross (+33.3%), with the Mitsubishi Xpander (+12.4%) in tow. The VinFast EC Van ranks #9 for its first Top 10 appearance at home.
