VinFast Takes Flight: A New Era of Electric SUVs Debuts in India
VinFast has officially made its landmark debut in India, launching the much-anticipated VF 6 and VF 7 premium electric SUVs. This marks a historic milestone for the company, as these are not just “made in India, but made by Indians, for Indians”. The launch underscores VinFast’s commitment to supporting India’s transition to green mobility and establishing itself as a key player in the nation’s EV future.
According to Mr. Pham Sanh Chau, CEO of VinFast Asia, the company is introducing a complete electric mobility ecosystem designed for Indian families. The VF 6 and VF 7 embody a blend of practical design, premium quality, and cutting-edge technology that Indian consumers aspire to.
The Distinctive Design Philosophy
Unlike many mainstream cars in the Indian market, the VinFast VF 6 and VF 7 boast a unique, futuristic design language. The VF 6, inspired by “The Duality in Nature,” fuses contrasting qualities of fun and sophistication. The VF 7, with its “The Universe is Asymmetrical” design philosophy, combines a bold exterior with a premium interior. Both SUVs feature a bold V-LED signature, with sleek lines and modern accents. The VF 7’s design is particularly dynamic, with a muscular stance, fluid silhouette, and flush door handles, which give it a premium, high-end feel.
The interiors are a testament to this unique design, with a minimalist and spacious cabin. The dashboard is clean and clutter-free, as both vehicles rely on a large central infotainment screen and a head-up display (HUD) instead of a traditional instrument cluster. The use of premium vegan leather upholstery and soft-touch materials on the dashboard, combined with a panoramic fixed glass roof on some variants, creates a lounge-like and luxurious experience. This focus on premium materials and design sets it apart from local competitors and aligns it with a global standard of luxury.

An Unbeatable Ownership Ecosystem
VinFast is setting a new benchmark with its comprehensive ecosystem for a delightful ownership experience. The company has partnered with banks for tailored financing solutions and with companies like RoadGrid and myTVS to establish a nationwide network for charging and after-sales services. A key highlight of the ownership model is a 10-year or 2 lakh km warranty and three years of free maintenance, which addresses a significant concern for first-time EV buyers.
The company also announced a collaboration with BatX Energies for advanced battery recycling, demonstrating a commitment to sustainability and a circular battery value chain. Both the VF 6 and VF 7 will be assembled at VinFast’s new state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Thoothukudi, Tamil Nadu, aligning with the “Made-in-India” vision.
