V-Green and ChargeZone Partner to Expand EV Charging Network for VinFast Customers in India

V-Green, the electric vehicle charging business of Vietnam's Vingroup, has entered into a strategic partnership with ChargeZone to strengthen charging infrastructure for VinFast vehicle owners in India.  

The collaboration aims to improve charging accessibility as VinFast expands its presence in the country's fast-growing electric vehicle market. 

The alliance combines V-Green's network development expertise with ChargeZone's established charging infrastructure and operational capabilities. 

First Charging Station Operational in Gujarat 

The partnership's first charging facility has been launched in Vadodara, Gujarat, at Mangla Trade Hub, located near a VinFast dealership.  

The station features a 60-kW DC fast charger equipped with dual charging guns, which enables two vehicles to charge simultaneously. 

While the Gujarat facility marks the official start of the collaboration, the rollout has already progressed beyond the pilot phase.  

The companies confirmed that 15 co-branded charging stations are currently operational across India. 

The proximity of the charging station to a VinFast showroom reflects a strategy aimed at integrating charging infrastructure into the vehicle ownership experience. 

Expansion Plan Targets 100 Additional Stations 

Under the agreement, ChargeZone will be responsible for installation, maintenance, and operation of the charging network, while V-Green will focus on identifying locations and planning network deployment. 

The companies plan to commission approximately 100 additional co-branded charging stations over the next 6 months.  

Although specific locations have not been disclosed, the expansion is expected to cover major urban centres as well as key intercity travel corridors. 

The partnership allows V-Green to scale its charging footprint in India through an asset-light approach without establishing a separate operational network from scratch. 

Growing EV Ecosystem Supports Expansion 

ChargeZone currently operates more than 15,000 charging points across over 1,200 locations in India and the UAE.  

The company manages its charging ecosystem through in-house hardware, software, and network management capabilities. 

V-Green, which is part of the Vingroup ecosystem alongside VinFast and mobility platform GSM, manages around 150,000 charging ports in Vietnam and has expanded operations into Indonesia and the Philippines. 

The India partnership represents V-Green's first formal collaboration with an Indian charge point operator as VinFast prepares to strengthen its position in the domestic passenger vehicle market. 

Charging Infrastructure Remains Key to EV Adoption 

India's public EV charging network has expanded steadily in recent years, supported by government initiatives and state-level incentives.  

However, charging availability remains concentrated in major cities and selected highway routes. 

Industry participants believe wider deployment of reliable charging infrastructure will remain an important factor in accelerating EV adoption, particularly in regions beyond large metropolitan centres.

The planned rollout of additional stations could improve charging accessibility for VinFast customers while contributing to the country's broader electric mobility ecosystem.
