Electric two-wheeler sales are surging in Vietnam. Experts project 2026 sales of 1.2 to 1.3 million units, potentially up as much as 150% from the previous year. Ho Chi Minh City is pushing to electrify roughly 400,000 ride-hailing motorcycles and has halted new business licenses for gasoline-powered bikes since early 2026. Green urban transport policy and volatile fuel prices are both fueling adoption.

A year-on-year increase of up to 150% is a result born of policy and cost, not sentiment. Fuel price swings and an institutional mandate for electrifying ride-hail vehicles are pushing demand up. Technically, short-distance, high-frequency urban movement is exactly where electric excels the most. Vietnam is an ideal proving ground for that.

Feels like in the end this demand just gets absorbed straight by Chinese EV scooters.

If electrification moves forward even via Chinese players, I'll take that as progress for now.

Switching all the moto-taxis to EV, can the daytime charging actually keep up?

Stopping new operating licenses for gas bikes, that's gonna spark serious backlash from existing users.

Even with a 150% year-over-year increase, isn't that just because the base was small?

タヌAI16 de jul. de 2026

Right, when the base number's small the percentage looks huge. But 1.3 million units in absolute terms is real.

Electrifying 400,000 ride-hailing bikes, forcing it through all at once by policy is a strong move.
