On social networks, there are some pictures of VinFast cars in China. According to information from the poster, these cars appeared at a port in Guangdong province. The cars shown in the picture belong to two models VF 8 and VF e34.
The VF 8 and VF e34 appeared in a separate area at a port in China.
The person who posted the image is a Chinese but still realizes that these are models from the Vietnamese brand VinFast.
