JAKARTA, INDONESIA - Media OutReach Newswire - 6 October 2026 - The VinFast VF 3, a mini SUV from Vietnam, has been honoured with the "Trusted & Popular Brand 2026" title in the Passenger BEV category at the Disway Awards 2026. The accolade reflects the VF 3's strong appeal and growing recognition among Indonesian consumers, while also underscoring VinFast's ability to understand and respond to the needs of the local market.
VinFast representative accepts the "Trusted and Popular Brand 2026" award for the VF 3 in the Passenger BEV category at the Disway Awards 2026.
The Disway Awards is an annual awards programme organised by Disway National Network, one of Indonesia's leading media networks, in partnership with independent research firm Infovesta Utama. The awards recognise brands and products that have made a strong impression on consumers across sectors including banking, technology, retail, healthcare, transportation, food and beverage, education, and public services.
This year's results were based on a survey of 20,000 people across 20 major cities in Indonesia. Brands recognised in each category were those mentioned first by respondents and achieving an awareness rate of more than 70%.
In the Passenger BEV category, the VinFast VF 3 achieved the highest level of awareness among respondents. The model's appeal comes down to three key strengths. Its bold, modern design and compact size make it easy to manoeuvre and well suited to urban driving. Despite its mini-SUV dimensions, the VF 3 offers four seats with the comfort and practicality needed for everyday use. Its accessible price and running costs also make EV ownership more attainable for a wider range of Indonesian consumers.
VinFast has also introduced a range of ownership benefits to support customers as it expands in Indonesia. These include free charging at V-GREEN charging stations until March 31, 2029, a residual value guarantee of up to 80%, subject to applicable terms and conditions, and the flexibility to either purchase the battery or subscribe to a battery plan.
With its practical size, distinctive design, extensive personalization options, and accessible ownership proposition, the VF 3 is particularly well suited to mainstream consumers making the switch to an electric vehicle for the first time.
Arunodoy Das, CEO of VinFast Indonesia, said: "The recognition received by the VinFast VF 3 at the Disway Awards 2026 is a strong testament to the model's quality, appeal, and suitability for Indonesian consumers, while also reflecting the country's growing shift toward electric mobility. It motivates us to continue developing vehicles that are practical and accessible, backed by solutions that make EV ownership easier for consumers. Through these efforts, we hope to contribute to the development of greener, cleaner mobility in Indonesia."
The Disway Awards 2026 recognition adds to a growing list of accolades VinFast has received in Indonesia. In 2025, the VF 3 was named "The Best Newcomer Electric Car" at the Carvaganza Editors' Choice Awards. VinFast was also honoured at the detikcom Awards 2025 with the "Accelerator of Indonesia's Electric Vehicle Ecosystem" award, while at the CNN Indonesia Awards 2025, the company received the "Outstanding Innovation in Sustainable Electric Mobility" and "Remarkable Contribution to Energy Independence" awards. At the Road to CNBC Indonesia Awards 2025, VinFast was named "Pioneering Brand in Green Transition and Sustainability", while the VF 7 received the "Compact SUV of the Year" award.
With a growing product portfolio spanning the VF 3 mini SUV to the seven-seater MPV 7, as well as an expanding sales and after-sales network, charging infrastructure, and flexible ownership solutions, VinFast is building an increasingly comprehensive EV ecosystem in Indonesia and supporting the country's transition to greener mobility.

NEW TAIPEI CITY, TAIWAN – Media OutReach Newswire – 6 October 2026 – Jazz Hipster Corporation, an ODM specializing in high-end audio systems, today announced a new high-resolution wireless audio platform that advances the wireless audio signal path to 24-bit/96kHz, moving beyond the 48kHz design baseline long used in the market. Designed for active speakers, the platform supports both 2-way and 3-way product configurations on a single core architecture. Brand customers can now request a technical evaluation, with customer projects potentially entering mass production as early as the end of this year.
Jazz Hipster Brings High-Resolution Audio Standards to the Active Speaker Market with a 96kHz Wireless Audio Platform
Built on Wi-Fi 6, the platform supports high-resolution audio and streaming services over an existing home wireless network. For stereo and other active speaker configurations with up to four channels, the audio signal path supports resolutions of up to 24-bit/96kHz. End-to-end transmission latency is kept within 20 milliseconds to maintain audio-video synchronization when watching television or other video content. The platform also integrates a USB-C digital input for direct connection to computers, streaming players, mobile devices, and other high-resolution audio sources.
High-resolution streaming has become commonplace at the source, yet wireless transmission remains a persistent industry bottleneck. Most wireless active speakers on the market still use 48kHz as their transmission design baseline. High-resolution files supplied by streaming services are often downsampled during wireless transmission, creating a gap between advertised specifications and the actual listening experience.
The platform also forms part of Jazz Hipster's broader home entertainment audio architecture. Brands entering the market with active speakers can build on the same technical foundation to develop wireless subwoofers, surround speakers, and home theater systems. In multichannel configurations, the architecture can distribute up to 12 audio channels and supports Dolby Atmos speaker layouts. For consumers, this means they can start with a pair of active bookshelf speakers and expand their systems without replacing existing equipment.
"The active speaker market is undergoing a major shift," said Ben Hsu, Senior Product Manager at Jazz Hipster. "Traditional combinations of passive speakers and separate amplifiers are gradually giving way to integrated active designs, with streaming serving as a key driver. This presents brands with a dilemma: product lines need to become increasingly segmented, while engineering resources are not growing at the same pace. We believe that over the next three years, competition in active speakers will center on platforms rather than individual models. The key will be whether a single architecture can support both stereo configurations that prioritize the highest sound quality and home theater configurations with the greatest number of channels."
For brand customers, supporting two product paths on a single architecture means that expanding a product line does not require duplicating development work. Brands can enter the market with a relatively straightforward 2-way design, then extend their offerings to 3-way bookshelf speakers without changing the core platform architecture or the scope of software integration. This allows development resources to focus on acoustic tuning and product voicing. A single app can also serve the entire product range.
Jazz Hipster has timed the platform launch ahead of the autumn trade show season to align with brand customers' year-end mass production schedules. A technical brief is now available on request, covering the platform architecture, 2-way and 3-way applications, connectivity specifications, and key considerations for evaluating adoption.
