Thaco has been the new official importer of BMW and MINI vehicles in Viet Nam following a co-operation deal with the German giant car maker signed in January of 2018.
The price of the newly imported BMW car models have yet unveiled.According to BMW, the 3-series car model is the most successful in Viet Nam. A total of 6,400 cars are now on the road.
BMW has sold more than 10,500 units in Viet Nam since entering the market 20 years ago.
The biggest local car maker currently manufactures and distributes Korea’s Kia model, Japan’s Mazda and France’s Peugeot.
Thaco plans to build three more plants with a total annual capacity of 215,000 trucks, vans and commercial cars, and achieve a localisation ratio of 16 per to 46 per cent.
