TAIPEI, March 3, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Vinfast, Vietnam's first national car brand bared its ambition to dominate Vietnam's electrical vehicle market by embracing ProLogium's epoch-making solid state automotive battery solution.

A subsidiary of Vingroup, Vietnam's largest private company, Vinfast has signed a MOU with the world's leading solid-state battery manufacturer ProLogium to accelerate commercialization of solid-state battery EV in Vietnam.
