VinFast has already started the groundwork for its electric two-wheeler plans in the Indian market. The company has reportedly signed up 50 dealers across the country. This indicates that the brand doesn’t want to limit itself to electric cars, but is also planning to establish its presence in the two-wheeler segment.
However, the filing of VinFast Patents does not necessarily mean that all models will be launched in India. The company has not yet announced an official timeline for its electric two-wheeler launch or an India-specific product lineup.

VinFast Electric Two-Wheelers in India: Latest Patents Explained
The latest patent filings include an electric scooter whose design appears to be very similar to the VinFast Vento S. On the other hand, the electric motorcycle appears to be a relatively production-ready version of a previously showcased concept.
Both models could arrive in the Indian market with premium positioning, but official details regarding final specifications, pricing, and positioning are not yet available.
1. New VinFast Electric Scooter: Inspired by Vento S Design
The latest patented scooter’s design is similar to the VinFast Vento S. The company showcased the Vento S at the India Mobility Expo 2025, where the brand displayed a total of five electric scooters.
The Vento S’s most important technical feature was its side-mounted electric motor. VinFast’s other electric scooters use hub-mounted motors, but the Vento S’s setup was different. If the updated scooter arrives in India with this architecture, it would be a noticeable departure from the brand’s existing electric scooter portfolio.
Its side-mounted motor setup could also help give it a premium positioning. Hub-motor electric scooters are popular in comparatively affordable segments in the Indian market, while the Vento S’s mechanical layout could give it a distinct identity.
The previous Vento S version featured an electric motor producing a peak power output of 5.2kW. It was powered by a 3.5kW LFP battery pack, with a claimed top speed of 89kph and a range of up to 160km under ideal riding conditions. These figures are for the older Vento S version; the specifications of the latest patented scooter are yet to be confirmed.
Apart from the design, the rear disc brake is also an important detail. If the production version features disc brakes on both the front and rear wheels, this could be a useful feature in the Indian electric scooter market. Whether dual-channel ABS will be available is also not yet confirmed. The Vento S version available in Vietnam featured single-channel ABS.
Interestingly, VinFast no longer sells the Vento S in any market. So, if an updated version is launched in India, it will be interesting to see its final name, features, and pricing.

2. VinFast Electric Motorcycle: Production Version Looks Closer
The latest patent filing also includes an electric motorcycle, which appears to be a more advanced version of the company’s previously showcased electric motorcycle concept.
VinFast showcased the concept as part of its broader electric motorcycle strategy in early 2026. According to Vietnamese media reports, the company may develop a performance-focused electric motorcycle lineup, which could include names like the Subab, Surad, Sudub, and Sulad.
These proposed models could be developed for different motorcycle categories. The Surad is being associated with the street-naked or sport-naked category, the Sudub with the cruiser, and the Sulad with the supersport segment. However, these names and product plans have not yet been officially confirmed.
The technical specifications of the motorcycle have also not been revealed. Vietnamese media reports have discussed the possibility of an electric motor producing 50 kW of peak power. Its expected top speed could be limited to 130kph, but these details are not official specifications.
If these performance figures are achieved in the production model, the motorcycle could be positioned between the Ultraviolette F77 and the company’s higher-performance F99 project. It remains to be seen whether VinFast develops multiple versions of the same motorcycle platform or introduces different models for different performance categories.
Interestingly, a slightly different electric motorcycle from VinFast was also spotted patented in India in July. The latest filing indicates that the company is actively working on its electric motorcycle plans.
VinFast Patents Six Electric Two-Wheelers: What Does It Mean for India?
VinFast’s India-focused electric two-wheeler portfolio now has a total of six patented models. This lineup includes five electric scooters and one electric motorcycle. The latest two patent filings cover one scooter and one motorcycle.
This development suggests that the company wants to explore multiple electric two-wheeler categories in the Indian market. Scooters could target the daily commuting segment, while electric motorcycles could create a unique opportunity for performance-focused buyers.
VinFast has not yet announced a launch date for its two-wheeler business in India. It is also unclear how many of the six patented models will actually be launched in the Indian market.
Pricing will be an important factor for the company. To compete with established manufacturers in the Indian electric two-wheeler market, it will need to focus on competitive pricing, practical riding range, charging convenience, and after-sales support.
Auto India Daily Verdict
The latest filings from VinFast Patents are an interesting development for the Indian electric two-wheeler market. The Vento S-inspired scooter’s side-mounted motor setup and production-ready appearance could further expand the electric motorcycle company’s existing scooter-focused portfolio.
This could also give VinFast an opportunity to enter the performance-focused electric motorcycle segment in India along with electric scooters.
However, considering the VinFast Patents a confirmation of upcoming launches is premature. The company has not yet announced an India launch timeline, final product names, specifications, and pricing.
If VinFast introduces a significant portion of its patented portfolio in India, competition in the electric scooter and performance motorcycle segments could become more interesting. The most important question for now is which of these six models the company selects for Indian buyers.
