VinFast signs memorandum of understanding with Motech

(Dan Tri Newspaper) - VinFast and Motech Automotive Service Center, through its franchisee in the Philippines, have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to expand the service network for VinFast electric vehicles in this market.

According to the memorandum of understanding, VinFast and Motech will actively work towards the goal of turning Motech's 63 service workshops into official VinFast service centers or authorized VinFast service centers for repairing, servicing, and maintaining VinFast electric vehicles in the Philippines.

VinFast aims to operate more than 100 similar service centers in the Philippines this year, and the recent agreement with Motech is part of the Vietnamese electric vehicle manufacturer's plan to expand its partner network in the Philippines.

Motech's service centers in the Philippines will meet VinFast's requirements regarding facilities, machinery, equipment, and workforce skills, while prioritizing the provision of genuine parts and services to VinFast vehicle owners. This will contribute to maximum convenience and peace of mind for customers.

Throughout the collaboration, VinFast will provide personnel training and technical consulting to help Motech quickly expand its authorized service center network, especially given the expected strong growth in the number of VinFast electric vehicles delivered in the Philippines.

Motech currently owns a diverse chain of automotive service centers with hundreds of facilities across the Philippines, ranging in model and scale of operation, spanning from the northern part of the Tuguegarao archipelago, down to major cities in Manila, and to Mindanao Island in the south.

In addition, both sides will actively discuss business cooperation opportunities, information sharing, and marketing activities related to after-sales service for electric vehicles in Southeast Asia.

Johann Rommel Naguiat, President and CEO of Motech Automotive Philippines, shared: "Motech is excited about the opportunity to become an authorized service provider for VinFast electric vehicles in the Philippines. We have faith in VinFast's growth potential in Southeast Asia."

Together, Motech and VinFast aim to provide consumers with superior experiences and drive the ever-growing electric vehicle market. Making its debut in the Philippines, the partnership between VinFast and Motech will address concerns about driving range and service, making electric vehicles more accessible to Filipinos. With Motech's extensive network of dealerships, VinFast customers can rest assured that their vehicles will receive excellent service wherever they are located.

Mr. Pham Sanh Chau, General Director of VinFast Asia, said: "With Motech's position, experience, and extensive service network, we aim to bring maximum peace of mind and satisfaction to Filipino customers, adhering to VinFast's three business pillars: good cars, good prices, and good after-sales service. We believe that with this cooperation, owning and using electric vehicles will become increasingly easy and smooth, maximizing opportunities for customers to participate in the green transportation revolution taking place globally."

Since officially entering the Philippine market in 2024, alongside the launch of its green and smart car models, VinFast has affirmed its long-term commitment to the market through attractive sales policies and a continuously expanding after-sales network.

Through collaborations with leading after-sales partners, VinFast not only optimizes its business operations in the Philippines but also enhances brand recognition, affirming its "customer-centric" philosophy throughout its global expansion.
