Outlook: "We are expecting a 30x to 40x increase in sales in the U.S. market this year over $6.4 million in 2023 and believe that this growth trajectory can be sustained over the next five years. We also expect to reach break-even point soon. This outlook reflects our current and preliminary view on the business and existing market conditions, which is subject to change."
Manufacturing Facilities: In select target markets, VinFast Auto decided to accelerate the establishment of manufacturing facilities to leverage attractive government incentives. In India, the target production start date for Completely Knocked Down ("CKD") facility in Thoothukudi, Tamil Nadu, is expected to be in the first half of 2025. In Indonesia, the target production start date for our CKD facility is expected to be by the end of 2025. We expect to break ground on our manufacturing facility in Indonesia within the next two months. The CKD facilities in Thoothukudi, Tamil Nadu, and in Indonesia are each expected to have an annual capacity of approximately 50,000 vehicles for phase 1, with a potential ramp-up to 300,000 vehicles per year depending on market demand.
