Vinfast is preparing to launch its VF7 and VF6 five-seat SUVs in India and has now filed a design patent for a new seven-seater. Called the Vinfast Limo Green, the three-row SUV is sold exclusively to taxi operators in Vietnam, and it may be planning to do the same here. Interestingly, Chinese rival BYD previously adopted a similar strategy with the e6 MPV.
- Limo Green has a 2+3+2 seat layout; captain seats are not offered
- The Vinfast SUV range is 450km, as per NEDC
- There is no information yet on the Limo Green India launch
