Protect the environment and make use of renewable fuel. The European Union (EU) is also planning to “kill” gasoline-fueled cars by 2030 – 2050.

Understanding the trend, the “big” in the world automobile industry as Toyota, Honda, Nissan, Volvo, Hyundai, Chevrolet … also launched the first electric cars in Europe as a wake-up of a new era of the world automobile. One of the “cheap” electric car models that has been raining the past few years is the Telsa Model 3 which has a promising future in the world. The electric car is considered a “miracle” in the world car market by 276,000 orders in just two days.

In Vietnam, some private automobile companies also quickly launched the Tesla Model 3 for domestic sales at VND2 billion and quickly “fired” afterwards. Tesla Model 3 was quickly “used” as the battery life is poor, engine or broken or not good quality machining, … but it is still just the beginning. Tesla boss Elon Musk said that in the next upgrade, the car’s electric cars could travel up to 800km on a single charge, roughly three times the current roadmap.
