Vietnamese electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer VinFast has announced its participation in the upcoming Electrify Expo Industry Day at the Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum, Long Island. The event, recognized as North America’s largest EV and technology festival, provides a platform for top industry players to discuss innovation, infrastructure, and policy frameworks shaping the future of electric mobility.
Brook Taylor, VinFast’s Vice President of Government Relations, Strategic Partnerships, and U.S. Manufacturing, will represent the company on the panel “EVs Without the Sticker Shock: Making Electric Mobility More Accessible.” The session will explore strategies to make EVs more affordable and accelerate mainstream adoption. Taylor is expected to highlight VinFast’s mission of making sustainable transportation accessible worldwide.
Following the industry sessions, VinFast will engage with the public during the festival days, showcasing its VF 8 midsize SUV and VF 9 full-size seven-seater SUV. Attendees will have the opportunity to test-drive both models and experience their premium design, smart technologies, and high safety standards firsthand.
