VinFast India Auto Expo 2025

VinFast is showcasing nearly everything it has on sale in international markets at the ongoing Auto Expo 2025. From displaying its collection of all-electric cars and two-wheelers, and even a concept, to announcing the launch of the VF 7 and VF 6 SUVs later this year, the Vietnamese EV maker has made its presence felt the Bharat Mandapam in New Delhi. Here’s a quick look at all the other VinFast four-wheeler models at the Bharat Mobility Global Expo 2025.

VinFast VF 3

VinFast VF 3

The smallest EV in VinFast’s range, the VF 3, is slightly larger than MG Motor India’s Comet EV. The two-door, four-seater measures 3,190mm in length, 1,679mm in width, and stands 1,622mm tall, with a 2,075mm wheelbase. It comes with 16-inch alloy wheels, and its 191mm ground clearance and slab-sided design give it SUV-esque design cues.

Inside, the VF 3 sports a 10-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, a layered dashboard, a two-spoke steering wheel (without steering-mounted controls), an automatic climate control system, and vertical, body-coloured side AC vents. The rear seats fold flat to liberate 550 litres of boot space.

Powering the VF 3 is an 18.64kWh lithium-ion battery offering an NEDC (New European Driving Cycle) range of up to 210km on a single charge. Power is sent to a rear-mounted electric motor producing 43.5hp and 110Nm torque, with VinFast claiming that it can sprint from 0-50kph in 5.3 seconds. The brand also says that the battery pack can be charged from 10-70 percent using a fast charger in 36 minutes.

VinFast VF e34

VinFast’s VF e34 is a Hyundai Creta-sized electric SUV that has been spied testing on our roads before. It carries the typical swoopy and crossover-like VinFast design language, and if it arrives in India, it will be another contender in the mid-size e-SUV space against the likes of the Mahindra BE 6, Hyundai Creta Electric and Maruti e Vitara.

The VF e34 is powered by a 41.9kWh battery pack that powers a 150hp, 242Nm electric motor, and it has an NEDC range of 318.6km. The crossover’s interior features a 10-inch touchscreen and gets a dual-tone beige and black finish.

VinFast VF 8

The VinFast VF 8 is another large SUV-coupe from the Vietnamese EV maker – it’s larger than the likes of the Mahindra XUV700 and Tata Safari but is a strict 5-seater. The e-SUV is powered by an 87.7kWh battery pack that, on the US-based EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) rating, can go a maximum of 412km on a single charge. There are two AWD variants – with e-motors on front and rear axles – and the more premium version gets a combined output of 408hp and 500Nm of torque, which is said to help the VF 8 sprint from 0-96kph in about 5.5 seconds.

VinFast VF 9

The largest e-SUV in VinFast’s line-up abroad, the VF 9, is a three-row SUV capable of seating six or seven and is bigger than the Audi Q7 overall. Both variants – Eco and Plus – have the same 123kWh battery pack that has a claimed WLTP range of up to 531km and a dual-motor AWD setup with a combined output of 408hp and 620Nm of torque. VinFast claims a 0-100kph time of 6.6 seconds for the Eco version (which weighs 2,911kg and comes in 7-seater form only) and a 6.7-second time for the Plus (2,959-2,968kg kerb weight, depending on whether it’s specced in 6-seater or 7-seater configuration).

Along with roof rails and larger 21-inch alloy wheels (the Eco gets 20-inchers), the Plus variant gets features such as auto-dimming outside rearview mirrors, powered, heated and ventilated first- and second-row seats with a massage function, an 8-inch rear infotainment screen, 13 speakers with a sub-woofer and a panoramic sunroof.

VinFast VF Wild concept

VinFast VF Wild

Showcased first at the Consumer Electronics Show 2024 in Las Vegas, the VF Wild concept is about as long at the Toyota Hilux, but it is quite a bit wider than the Japanese brand’s popular pick-up truck. Meant to provide sustainable practicability, the VF Wild comes with a powered tailgate, a loading bed whose length can expand from 5 feet to 8 feet (when the automatic rear seats are folded), a panoramic sunroof and digital side mirrors which are said to improve aerodynamics.
