Overview
The VinFast VF6 is the smallest vehicle from the Vietnam-based automaker. Roughly the size of the Kia Niro EV, the battery-electric VF6’s striking V-shaped LED “eyebrows” and an array of bright exterior hues hope to liven up the compact electric SUV segment. Offered exclusively with a single electric motor that drives the front wheels, the VF6 produces a claimed 174 horsepower in base Eco mode. Opt for the Plus model and its larger capacity battery pack and the VF6’s output jumps to 201 horsepower. VinFast is still hush-hush about details on charge time and maximum driving range. That said, if the larger VF8 and VF9 electric SUVs are any indication, then it’s possible the VF6 will travel up to 230 miles on a full charge.
What’s New for 2024?
The VinFast VF6 is completely new. It’s expected to go into production toward the end of 2023.
