VinFast, which is aiming to build Vietnam's first indigenous car, has revealed a sedan and SUV, which will be given their in-the-flesh debuts at the 2018 Paris motor show in early October.
Both vehicles feature the marque's 'V' emblem high up on the grille, which is flanked by Opel-like spears that blend in with a thin strip of LED driving lights. The cars' main lighting units are hidden just above a set of faux air intakes.
The facelifted Mini Clubman 'LCI' has been spied this week during development testing, giving us an early glimpse as to what to expect from the refreshed wagon range.
Spotted in hi-po John Cooper Works (JCW) guise, this prototype is wearing eye-catching yellow wrap on the front and rear, suggesting the majority of cosmetic updates will be centred around these areas.

Power outputs for the monster mill have grown steadily since it was introduced in the Veyron 13 years ago, and may well expand further, but Bugatti CEO Stephan Winkelmann has confirmed it won't be replaced once its time is up.
The second-generation Genesis G80 has been spied doing hot laps around the Nurburgring Nordschleife.
Although the first spy images of the new sedan appeared only a few weeks ago, this latest G80 prototype is wearing significantly less camouflage.
With the car bra ditched, we can clearly see the new model's much sleeker shape and many of its design details, including the more heavily raked rear windscreen, plunging boot line, and integrated boot spoiler.
Small SUVs, high-riding hatchbacks, little crossovers. Not matter what you call them, sales in this part of the market are absolutely booming, pinching sales from the depleting Small Car and Light Car segments.
While the overall new vehicle market has cooled by 0.3% over last year’s record (to the end of August), sales in the ‘Small SUV’ segment have leapt up by almost 25%, to 93,415 units.
