History
edit
The Limo Green was revealed by VinFast through a set of images on 9 January 2025, alongside three other "Green" models, which are the Minio Green, Nerio Green (based on the VinFast VF e34), and the Herio Green (based on the VinFast VF 5).[6] These "Green" series are positioned as commercial, ride-sharing and taxi-oriented vehicles. Previously, the Limo Green nameplate was used by the Green SM taxi version of the VF e34 in Indonesia,[7] before it was renamed to Nerio Green.
The Limo Green went on sale in Vietnam in August 2025 in a single specification.[8]
As it is the case with the VinFast VF 5 and VF e34, development of the VF MPV 7 / Limo Green was largely outsourced to Chinese-based original design manufacturer (ODM) Shanghai Longsheng Automotive Design Co., Ltd., which operates internationally as LS Auto.[9][10][11] The Limo Green itself is based on LS Auto's in-house model, the LEV 01 battery-electric SUV, with an enlarged rear body to accommodate the third row seat.[12]
In January 2026, VinFast launched a version of the Limo Green oriented for private buyers in the Vietnamese market called VF MPV 7. The VF MPV 7, similar to the Limo Green, is available in a single variant. It includes several distinctions from the Limo Green, such as styling features like LED light bands forming a 'V' signature between the daytime running lights (DRLs), chrome moulding along the beltline, and 19-inch wheels. Inside, the VF MPV 7 maintains the simple, minimalist interior layout of the Limo Green, while the center console has been revised to provide additional storage space, relocating the electronic gear selector to a position behind the steering wheel. The cabin features artificial leather upholstery for an enhanced aesthetic and includes a PM2.5 air filtration system. Other amenities comprise automatic climate control, a 10.1-inch touchscreen infotainment system with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, remote vehicle tracking, rear parking sensors, and a reverse camera.[13]
The Limo Green made its overseas debut in Indonesia at the Gaikindo Jakarta Auto Week in November 2025. The VF MPV 7 variant debuted in February 2026 at the Indonesia International Motor Show.[14]
In India, the VF MPV 7 was launched on April 15, 2026,[15] and the Limo Green on 5 June 2026.[16]
