Meet the VinFast VF6: Your New Urban Electric SUV?
The VinFast VF6 is a compact electric SUV that is perfect for city life and family outings. It has a fresh, modern design that is sure to turn heads.
Sleek and modern design:
The VF6 looks futuristic. It was designed by the famous Italian design house, Torino Design. Its smooth, flowing shape resembles a coupe, which is very stylish. The car has unique V-shaped LED lights at the front and rear. This is VinFast’s signature look, which makes the car instantly recognizable even at night.
A high-tech and comfortable interior:
Step into the VF6 and you will feel like you are in a car from the future. The design is very clean and simple.
Huge touchscreen: The first thing you will notice is a huge 12.9-inch touchscreen in the center. This screen controls almost everything – music, navigation, air conditioning and car settings.
No driver display? No problem!: There is no traditional screen behind the steering wheel. Instead, the VF6 uses a color head-up display (HUD). It projects important information, like your speed, directly onto the windshield, so you can keep your eyes on the road.
Premium feel: The seats are covered in high-quality vegan leather, which is good for the environment and feels great. For an open and airy feel, you can get a beautiful panoramic sunroof. Other comfort features include ventilated front seats (to keep you cool) and dual-zone climate control.
Performance, Battery, and Range:
VinFast will offer the VF6 in two versions: Eco and Plus. Both have a single motor that powers the front wheels.
| Feature | VinFast VF6 Eco | VinFast VF6 Plus |
| Power | 174 bhp | 201 bhp |
| Torque | 250 Nm | 310 Nm |
| Battery | 59.6 kWh | 59.6 kWh |
| Claimed Range | 399 km | 381 km |
| Drivetrain | Front-Wheel Drive | Front-Wheel Drive |
The Eco version gives you a better balance of performance and longer range. The Plus version gives you extra power for a more exciting drive.
Safety First:
VinFast has packed the VF6 with advanced safety features. It includes a Level 2 Advanced Driver-Assistance System (ADAS). This smart system helps you drive more safely such as:
Adaptive Cruise Control (maintains a safe distance from the car in front)
Lane Keeping Assist (helps you stay in your lane)
Automatic Emergency Braking (can brake to avoid a collision) It also comes with a 360-degree camera and multiple airbags for peace of mind.
Expected Price in India:
The VinFast VF6 will compete with cars like the upcoming Hyundai Creta EV and Tata Curvv EV. The expected ex-showroom price is between ₹18 lakh and ₹25 lakh. This price could make it a very popular choice.
The VinFast VF7: Power, Premium Style, and More Space
If you want something bigger, more powerful and more luxurious, then the VinFast VF7 is for you. It is a mid-size electric SUV designed to deliver a premium experience.
Bold and powerful design:
The VF7 looks more muscular and aggressive than the VF6. It exudes a strong presence on the road with sharp lines and a wide body. Like its little brother, it features the signature V-shaped LED lights, but on a larger, more impressive scale.
A luxurious and spacious cabin:
The interior of the VF7 is a step up in luxury and space. It is perfect for families who want more space or who like a premium feel.
Shared technology, upgraded feel: It shares the same large 12.9-inch touchscreen and HUD concept as the VF6. However, the materials used are even more premium, with soft-touch surfaces everywhere.
Amazing rear seat comfort: With its long body, the VF7 offers excellent legroom for rear passengers. Everyone can relax on long journeys.
Fully loaded: The VF7 will have all the high-end features, including a panoramic sunroof, ventilated seats, and a premium sound system.
Performance That Thrills:
The VF7 offers serious performance, especially with its all-wheel-drive option.
| Feature | VinFast VF7 Plus (FWD) | VinFast VF7 Plus (AWD) |
| Power | 201 bhp | 349 bhp |
| Torque | 310 Nm | 500 Nm |
| Battery | 75.3 kWh | 75.3 kWh |
| Claimed Range | Around 450 km | Around 431 km |
| Drivetrain | Front-Wheel Drive | All-Wheel Drive |
| 0-100 km/h | N/A | 5.8 seconds |
The all-wheel drive (AWD) model is a true performance SUV. With its dual motors, it is incredibly fast and offers excellent grip in all weather conditions.
Top-level safety:
The VF7 will also feature a comprehensive Level 2 ADAS safety suite. With its powerful performance, having this advanced safety net is of utmost importance. It will offer the same smart driving aids as the VF6 to keep you and your family safe.
Expected price in India:
The VF7 will compete with premium EVs like the BYD Atto 3. Since it is bigger and more powerful, it will be priced higher. The expected ex-showroom price is in the range of ₹30 lakh to ₹35 lakh. The top-end AWD model could even go up to ₹50 lakh.
