VGP - The 12th Viet Nam Motor Show (VMS) was opened on October 5 with over 100 models from 13 famous auto brands and other related exhibitors.

Under the motto “Accelerate to Celebrate,” the five-day expo is taking place at the Ha Noi International Exhibition Centre on 91 Tran Hung Dao Street.

The event hopes to send a message of automobile development in today’s society of which cars play an essential role, said Mr. Yoshihisa Maruta, the Chairman of the Viet Nam Automobile Manufacturers’ Association (VAMA).

“In the past three years we had no choice but to organize the Viet Nam Motor Show in HCM City due to unavailability of a suitable venue in Hà Nội. However, VAMA believes that we must try our best to overcome this difficulty to bring the show back to Hà Nội this year to meet our respected customers’ expectations,“ Mr. Yoshihisa Maruta added.

VMS features leading new models, both imported and assembled in Việt Nam, from US brands such as Chevrolet and Ford to Japanese brands like Honda and Toyota, along with giant Russian truck manufacturer Kamaz and several other brands from Europe and the Republic of Korea.

Thirteen auto brands are exhibiting their latest creations at the VMS, aimed at introducing new technology and designs to the different market segments in Việt Nam./.
