Test Drive a VinFast EV - Help to reach Goal of Providing 200,000 Meals for Those in Need

MARKHAM, Ontario--(BUSINESS WIRE)--As a partner of Food Banks Canada, VinFast, a leading electric vehicle (EV) brand, is proud to announce the return of its national initiative to support food banks across Canada. Running from October 1 to December 15, 2025, VinFast will donate the equivalent of 100 meals for Canadians in need for every test drive completed.

With a goal of reaching 2,000 test drives nationwide, VinFast aims to provide 200,000 meals to food banks across the country.

Last year, VinFast exceeded its target by more than 25% with more than 1,250 test drives completed, raising $62,900-a powerful example of how Canadian drivers can come together to make a difference. VinFast will be doubling their target in 2025.

A Drive for Change

Through its support of the Food Banks Canada, VinFast is giving Canadians a unique opportunity to contribute to their communities while experiencing the innovation of VinFast’s electric vehicles during the holiday season. Each test drive translates directly into 100 meals, amplifying VinFast’s commitment to sustainability and social impact.

Customers are encouraged to bring friends, as each additional test drive will add another 100 meals to the total. VinFast staff will also volunteer their time during the campaign, helping local food banks transport and distribute donations during the time of year when helping others and combating others is so important.

Giving Back Through Sustainable Innovation

“We are extremely pleased to continue our partnership with Food Banks Canada,” said Robert Muller, Deputy CEO of Sales and Marketing, VinFast Canada. “And we’re proud to return this year with an even bigger ambition: 200,000 meals. Every test drive makes a real difference, and together, we can support families across the country at a time when it’s needed most.”
