A Look at VinFast (NasdaqGS:VFS) Valuation Following Record 20,000 EV Deliveries and Expansion Plans

VinFast Auto (NasdaqGS:VFS) grabbed attention after announcing it delivered more than 20,000 electric vehicles in Vietnam in October 2025. This achievement makes it the first domestic automaker to reach this milestone.

This milestone isn’t happening in a vacuum. Despite headline-making delivery growth and plans to launch new EV models this year, VinFast Auto’s share price has slipped 17% year-to-date and its total shareholder return over the past year stands at -16%. Still, recent share price gains in the last month suggest momentum could be picking up as investors take note of expansion efforts and innovation plans.

With VinFast’s remarkable delivery numbers and ambitious expansion on the horizon, investors are left wondering if this recent rally is just the beginning or if the current share price is already reflecting future growth prospects.

Most Popular Narrative: 40.5% Undervalued

VinFast Auto’s current share price of $3.47 sits well below the most widely followed narrative’s fair value estimate of $5.83. This sizable gap reflects optimism around future growth and operational improvement, which contrasts with recent share price weakness.

The rollout of dedicated VinFast charging infrastructure and ecosystem partnerships (GSM and V-GREEN) in Southeast Asia and beyond directly addresses the primary consumer barrier to EV adoption. This move supports higher demand, increased deliveries, and ultimately greater revenue scale.

While analyst forecasts point to significant upside, the company’s price-to-sales ratio of 3.5x still looks expensive compared to both the US Auto industry average (1x) and peer average (2.6x). The gap with the fair ratio of just 0.2x highlights substantial valuation risk if expectations reset rather than deliver.
