Which variant of Vinfast VF6 should you consider buying?

The VinFast VF6 recently went on sale as the Vietnamese EV maker’s inaugural entry-level model for the Indian market. As an all-electric midsize SUV, the VF6 falls into the same bracket as established rivals like the Hyundai Creta Electric, Mahindra BE 6, Tata Curvv EV and MG ZS EV. Let’s take a look at the VF6 variant and colours, the powertrains it comes with, and the features buyers can expect from one of VinFast India’s debut models.

Starts at Rs 16.49 lakh.

The VF6 price in India starts at Rs 16.49 lakh and tops off at Rs 18.29 lakh, which makes it the cheapest electric midsize SUV you can currently buy. VinFast sells the VF6 in three trim levels: Earth, Wind, and Wind Infinity.

As far as powertrains go, the VF6 gets a 59.6kWh battery pack as standard, which is mated to a front-mounted electric motor. In the base Earth trim, the motor outputs 177hp and 250Nm, while in the higher-spec Wind variants it makes 204hp and 310Nm.

VF6 achieves claimed range of up to 468km.

Claimed range for the VF6 Earth stands at 468km, while the more powerful Wind trim can travel up to 463km on a single charge. Speaking of which, the VF6 can be charged via 3.3kW and 7.2kW AC chargers, as well as DC fast chargers. The latter requires just 25 minutes for a 10 to 70 percent charge.

Which VinFast VF6 variant should you buy?

Wind trim represents best value in the VF6 range.

Evidently, the VF6 Wind variant strikes an excellent balance between pricing and creature comforts. Thanks to the addition of ventilated front seats, Level 2 ADAS, dual-zone climate control, a superior sound system, heads-up display, and a stronger powertrain over the Earth trim, the Rs 1.3 lakh premium you pay for the VF6 Wind variant is well worth it. On the flip side, VF6 buyers who absolutely want a sunroof have no option but to pay Rs 50,000 extra and go for the top-spec Wind Infinity trim.

All prices are ex-showroom, India.
