In 1986, the arrival of the first 6160A marine diesel engine marked the beginning of Weichai's journey in Vietnam. From that very first engine to where we stand today, the past four decades have been more than the growth of a brand—they have been a journey of building lasting partnerships, understanding the local market, and growing hand in hand with Vietnam.

After four decades of sustained development, Weichai has grown from a marine engine manufacturer into a diversified provider of products and solutions across multiple industries. With cumulative sales of more than 160,000 units in Vietnam, Weichai has established itself as the market leader in both bus powertrain systems and marine propulsion solutions.

Throughout its development in Vietnam, Weichai has built long-term partnerships with many trusted distributors. Among them, Nanibi Vietnam  has been working alongside Weichai for 26 years. Mr. To Tuan Nam, General Director of Nanibi Vietnam, recalls that from the very first days of introducing Weichai marine engines, he has witnessed the brand's remarkable journey in Vietnam—from a newcomer in the market to the No. 1 brand in terms of marine engine market share.

Built on decades of mutual trust, Nanibi has not only chosen Weichai as its business partner but has also worked closely with Weichai to expand the market and bring high-quality products to an increasing number of Vietnamese customers. Nowaday, what began as an early partnership has grown into one of Vietnam's largest marine engine distributors, making Nanibi an important member of the Weichai family.

As Vietnam continues to accelerate infrastructure development, the demand for reliable, durable equipment capable of ensuring uninterrupted project execution has become increasingly critical. Recognizing these needs, 911 Joint Stock Company chose Weichai as its trusted partner and has maintained a strong partnership for the past 15 years.

Outstanding product quality, dedicated 24/7 after-sales support, and a comprehensive spare parts supply have become the foundation of the company's lasting confidence in Weichai.

Looking beyond today's achievements, Mr. Nguyen Xua Thanh , representative of 911 Group Joint Stock Company, has high expectations for Weichai's new energy business. He believes in its tremendous growth potential and the new opportunities it will create for the Vietnamese market in the years ahead.

Forty years is a milestone to celebrate, but it also marks the beginning of a new journey. Driven by continuous technological innovation, an ever-expanding product portfolio, and a strong commitment to green energy development, Weichai will continue to stand side by side with its Vietnamese customers, creating sustainable value and unlocking new opportunities for the future.
