FPT Software has asked the Ministry of Transport and relevant sectors for permission to operate self-driving autos in hi-tech zones and software parks nationwide on an experimental basis.
The Ministry of Transport issued a circular to guide the implementation of Decree 116 that tightens control over quality, technical safety and environment protection of imported autos.
The import of completely built-up (CBU) autos from India in May jumped
more than 20 times from February to over 3,500 units with an average
price of only VND112 million (US$5,038).
Many National Assembly delegates have expressed concerns about
difficulties domestic automakers would face if the special consumption
tax is deeply reduced.
