VinBus Ecology Transport Services LLC (Vietnamese: Công ty TNHH Dịch vụ Vận tải Sinh thái VinBus), is a Vietnamese privately operated non-profit bus route network service established by Vingroup in 2019 and the alternative branding for VinFast's electric bus series.
01History
The VinBus subsidiary was announced by Vingroup on May 2, 2019, with transit service starting in March 2020 and the deployment of 3,000 electric buses planned through the future.
02Electric bus
The VinBus-branded low-floor electric city bus is produced by VinFast, Vingroup's automotive subsidiary, at the company's Automobile Manufacture Complex located in Hai Phong. The bus is powered by a 281 kWh battery pack which gives the bus up to 260 km (160 mi) of range. Using the VinBus-designated 150 kWh DC fast-charging stations provided by StarCharge, the battery can be charged within ~2 hours. Batteries used by the VinBus fleet are provided by a joint venture between VinFast and LG Chem, while other components are supplied by Siemens.
03Transit service
VinBus currently operates three bus transit networks in the cities of Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, Haiphong and Phú Quốc City.
