The presentation was witnessed by international media and a large crowd of enthusiastic onlookers inside the Show halls as well as by a global audience who tuned in to witness the unveiling live over the internet.

"Vietnam is such a beautiful country and I can see how the VinFast design team have been able to bring some of that beauty alive in the lines of these amazing new cars," commented David Beckham.

"I've always been a car fanatic and it's a thrill to be here in Paris to celebrate the arrival of a new carmaker on the global stage. When I met you and your colleagues backstage earlier, the passion that you all have for the cars is infectious. It's an inspirational story and I'm really excited to be part of this launch moment for VinFast."
