The event's organising committee said the caravan, which started its road trip in Ha Noi on August 24, has passed the cities of Hai Phong, Thanh Hoa and Vinh ahead of its arrival in Da Nang next weekend.
The road trip, which will wind through the cities of Pleiku, Nha Trang and Buon Ma Thuot and finish at the centre of HCM City on October 15, features six models of caravans that are available in domestic market: Mirage, Attrage, Outlander Sport and Triton, as well as Pajero Sport and Outlander Plug-in Hybrid Electrical Vehicle.
