History

The first car was built at the Delta Auto Plant on May 20, 1992.[4] The company opened the Co Loa Auto Plant in Ha Noi City in 1992.[5] In 1997, production was briefly halted due to lack of access to parts.[5] In that same year, MA sold around 30,000 vehicles.[6]

In 2009, MA announced that they will distribute the Fiat 500 in Vietnam.[7]

In 2024, the company sent a document to the Ho Chi Minh City People's Committee and the Department of Natural Resources and Environment to voluntarily return the golden land at 120 Tran Hung Dao (District 1) to Ho Chi Minh City.[8] The document was signed and issued by the company's general director (Japanese).
