New Electric Scooter & Motorcycle Patented By VinFast In India
A futuristic motorcycle that looks straight from the Tron movie, and a conventional-looking family e-scooter
The Vietnamese manufacturer, VinFast, has yet again patented an electric motorcycle and a scooter in India. The motorcycle looks straight from the sci-fi movie Tron, and the scooter looks more like a conventional family e-scooter.
What We Know So Far
The patented scooter shares its design cues of the Vento S, which was showcased at Auto Expo 2025. The scooter gets a flowing design and looks premium. It gets quite a long, flat seat, which should accommodate 2 adults comfortably. The pillion footrest is nicely integrated into the side skirts, giving the e-scooter a complete yet minimalist look.
The scooter has a side-mounted motor, instead of a hub-motor setup which is present in the rest of the brand’s lineup. All said, the e-scooter’s Vietnamese version has a side-mounted motor making 5.2 kW peak power, a 3.5 kWh battery, a claimed top speed of 89 kmph and a claimed range of 160 km.
The motorcycle looks like something straight out of a sci-fi movie, with design cues borrowed from its concept electric motorcycle, Sulad, which was also recently patented. It gets a muscular body language, with a bulky wide rear tyre that makes it look like a proper performance-oriented motorcycle. The rider triangle also appears committed. The motorcycle gets twin-disc brakes up front and a disc brake at the rear.
It houses a mid-mounted motor and a battery pack up front. We do not have the exact power figures yet, but it is speculated to make around 50 kW of peak power.
BikeDekho Says
There is no official confirmation from the brand on the launch timelines of the patented two-wheelers. The motorcycle doesn't look like any of the existing brands' lineups internationally. That said, a patent does not necessarily guarantee a confirmed launch. VinFast might have just registered the design for copyright protection.
All said, the brand is ramping up its Indian entry, with the recent signing of the letter of intent with more than 50 dealer partners. The brand is looking to position itself in India and is set to make a grand entry in the Indian EV space.
