The second plant will be located adjacent to the existing motorcycle plant in Vinh Phuc Province, the suburbs of Hanoi. With total investment of approximately US$65 million, the new plant is scheduled to begin mass production in the latter half of 2008, with initial annual production capacity of 500,000 units and employment of approximately 1,400 associates.

Ever since it began motorcycle production in 1997, HVN has been trying to increase customers' joy in Vietnam through its commitment to provide convenient and attractive products. In 2006, HVN achieved all-time record sales of 851,000 units (up 27% vs. 2005). HVN's cumulative motorcycle production reached 3 million units in September 2006.
