Selex Motors

Selex Motors is a Vietnamese company focused on electric mopeds and supporting battery-swapping infrastructure. Founded in 2018 by Nguyen Huu Phuoc Nguyen, Nguyen Trong Hai, and Nguyen Dinh Quang, the company combines vehicle manufacturing with a network-based approach to electric mobility. Its offering includes electric scooters intended for practical urban and delivery use, together with stations where compatible batteries can be exchanged rather than recharged in place. This model is designed to reduce charging downtime and support higher-utilization users such as delivery riders and commercial fleets. The company introduced its first electric delivery scooter model, the Selex Camel, in 2022. The available reference material identifies Vietnam as its operating market and states that Selex Motors operated 30 battery-swapping stations across the country. On July 20, 2023, United States Secretary of the Treasury Janet L. Yellen visited the company's factory, bringing international public attention to its manufacturing and electric-mobility activities. Detailed information about its ownership, financial performance, leadership structure, product range beyond the Selex Camel, and international expansion is not established in the supplied sources.

Selex Motors was founded in Vietnam in 2018 by Nguyen Huu Phuoc Nguyen, Nguyen Trong Hai, and Nguyen Dinh Quang. The company developed around two linked areas of electric mobility: the manufacture of electric mopeds and the deployment of a battery-swapping platform. Rather than relying exclusively on fixed charging, battery swapping allows a rider to exchange a depleted battery for a charged one at a dedicated station. This approach is particularly relevant to delivery and other high-use applications, where waiting for a battery to recharge can reduce vehicle availability. The company's first specifically identified vehicle launch was the Selex Camel, an electric delivery scooter introduced in 2022. Its delivery-oriented positioning connects the vehicle business with Selex Motors' infrastructure strategy, since commercial riders may place a greater value on rapid energy replenishment and predictable operating time than private users. The supplied reference material does not establish the full technical specifications, pricing, production volume, or customer base of the model. By the time described in the reference material, Selex Motors operated 30 battery-swapping stations across Vietnam. This network represents an important part of the company's identity: it is not only a vehicle maker but also a platform operator whose usefulness depends on compatibility between its vehicles, batteries, and exchange locations. The available sources do not specify the exact station locations, deployment dates, ownership model, or whether the network serves additional vehicle manufacturers. On July 20, 2023, Janet L. Yellen, then United States Secretary of the Treasury, visited the Selex Motors factory. The visit provided public visibility for the company and its manufacturing activities in the context of interest in electric mobility and industrial development. The supplied material does not state that the visit resulted in a commercial agreement, investment, policy arrangement, or other formal transaction. Selex Motors is described as active and operating in Vietnam. No reliable information is provided here about a parent company, public listing, revenues, overseas operations, later product launches, executive appointments, or changes in ownership. Those areas require additional verification before being added to the encyclopedia record.
