<p>Vietnam-based EV brand VinFast is getting ready to step into India’s electric two-wheeler space, and it looks like the plan is already in motion. The company has filed multiple design patents here, which clearly shows it is serious about entering one of the fastest-growing EV markets. More details about the models for India will be announced at a later stage. This move fits into VinFast’s larger goal of building a strong presence in India’s green mobility push.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/news/car-news/vinfast-mpv-7-india-launch-on-april-15-pre-bookings-now-open-123251/">VinFast MPV 7 India Launch on April 15; Pre-Bookings Now Open</a></p><p>For India, <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/vinfast/">VinFast</a> is going with Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) batteries. Now, this is a smart choice. These batteries are known for better thermal stability and long life, something that really matters in Indian conditions. </p><p>One of the more interesting bits is the battery-swapping plan. Instead of waiting around to charge, riders can simply swap a drained battery for a fully charged one at dedicated stations. It sounds practical, especially for people who use their scooters every day or even for delivery work where downtime needs to be minimal.</p><p>Production will happen at VinFast’s&nbsp; facility in Tamil Nadu. Local manufacturing and assembly should help keep costs in check and ensure smoother supply. The brand will begin with assembly and then slowly move towards using more locally sourced components, which is the usual game plan for scaling in India.<br><br>On the sales side, VinFast is working on setting up a new retail and service network across key cities. It is also lining up partnerships to support after-sales and service needs. With EV adoption picking up and government incentives in place, the timing of this entry seems well planned.</p>

VinFast to Enter India’s Two-Wheeler Market with Electric Scooters Soon

VinFast to enter India’s electric scooter market with battery swapping and local production in Tamil Nadu. More details on India-specific models will be announced later.

<p>VinFast will launch its third&nbsp;model in India, the MPV 7, on April 15, 2026, and bookings of the same are now open&nbsp;for a token amount of Rs 21,000. The electric MPV will be sold under two names, targeting different buyers. For instance, the MPV 7 will cater to individual buyers, while the Limo Green&nbsp;will be for fleet operations. Currently, VinFast offers two electric SUVs in India, the VF 6 and the VF 7. The new MPV 7 will be the Vietnamese brand’s maiden model in the three-row segment. It will help it to take on established rivals like Kia and BYD, which already have offerings such as the Carens Clavis EV and eMax 7 in this segment.</p><h2><strong>VinFast MPV 7: Battery, Range</strong></h2><p>VinFast offers the MPV 7 with a 60.13kWh battery in the international market, which feeds a single front-mounted electric motor to make 201bhp of maximum power and 280Nm of peak torque.&nbsp;It has a range of 450 kilometres (NEDC).</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/reviews/car-reviews/vinfast-vf6-vf7-first-drive-review-121279/">Vinfast VF6 &amp; VF7 First Drive Review - Huge Ambition</a></p><p>As for charging, the VinFast electric MPV supports 80kW DC fast charging, which enables it to charge from 10% to 70% in around half an hour.</p><h2><strong>VinFast MPV 7: Design</strong></h2><p>

      </div>
    <p><br></p><p>The VinFast MPV 7 (also marketed as the Limo Green for fleet operations) looks like a classic, spacious MPV, with a unique, futuristic design and elements typical of electric vehicles. While it borrows certain design cues from its electric <a href="https://www.autox.com/suv-cars-in-india/">SUV </a>siblings, the<a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/vinfast/vf6/"> VF 6</a> and the <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/vinfast/vf7/">VF 7</a>, the MPV 7 stands out with a more upright, boxy profile with a flat roof. Key highlights include a V-shaped LED DRL strip,&nbsp;split-headlamps, aero-optimised alloy wheels,&nbsp;and a connected LED taillamp bar.</p><h2><strong>VinFast MPV 7: Interior</strong></h2><p>

      </div>
    <p><br></p><p>The upcoming MPV 7 from VinFast follows a clean, minimalist interior approach. It offers a 2+3+2 seating configuration, and is equipped with a 10.1-inch touchscreen,&nbsp;a 4-speaker sound system, and a sliding second-row bench. Instead of a conventional instrument cluster, the electrified MPV&nbsp;utilises a head-up display to relay essential driving data. These features are part of the global-spec version,&nbsp;while the India-spec model’s final equipment list will be revealed at launch.</p><h2><strong>VinFast Upcoming Launches and India Roadmap </strong></h2><p>As part of its India roadmap, <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/vinfast/">VinFast</a> will bring its two-wheeler portfolio&nbsp;to the market in the second half of the year. The company will adopt a distinct retail strategy, with separate showrooms for its two- and four-wheeler offerings.&nbsp;Currently, VinFast has 51 four-wheeler outlets across the country,&nbsp;  which it plans to expand to 75 by the end of the year.</p>

VinFast MPV 7 India Launch on April 15; Pre-Bookings Now Open

The upcoming VinFast electric MPV will be marketed under separate names for private buyers and fleet use. The brand operates 51 4W outlets nationwide and aims to expand them to 75 by year-end.

<p>VinFast is reported to expand its portfolio&nbsp;in India, which currently includes the <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/vinfast/vf6/">VF 6</a> and <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/vinfast/vf7/">VF 7</a> SUVs.&nbsp;The upcoming model is expected to be the VinFast Limo Green,&nbsp;and the model has already been seen testing on roads, suggesting that&nbsp;the Vietnamese brand might launch it sometime soon. The MPV segment in India is&nbsp;witnessing steady growth, with established players like <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/maruti-suzuki/">Maruti Suzuki </a>and <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/kia/">Kia</a> already&nbsp;offering some of the great options. With the Limo Green, VinFast will tap into this&nbsp;rising demand in the MPV domain. The model is expected to rival existing electric&nbsp;MPVs such as the <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/byd/emax-7/">BYD eMax 7</a> and the <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/kia/carens-clavis-ev/">Kia Carens Clavis EV</a>.</p>

VinFast Limo Green Electric MPV Teased Ahead of Launch; Here’s What It Could Cost

Upon its launch in India, the VinFast Limo Green is expected to go head-to-head against popular models such as the Kia Carens Clavis EV and the  BYD eMax 7. 

<p>VinFast has expanded into the ultra-luxury electric vehicle (EV) market with the global unveiling of the Lac Hong 800S and Lac Hong 900S EVs. Scheduled for a 2027 launch, these flagship models will serve as the premier offerings in the manufacturer’s international portfolio, positioned to compete in the high-end electric segment. The new Lac Hong series joins the existing 900 LX to form a comprehensive premium range. Simultaneously, the Vietnamese automaker has implemented a new corporate structure that reorganises its vehicle lineup into three strategic brands, establishing a foundation for its global expansion strategy ahead of the 2027 launch.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/exclusive-stories/vinfast-india-special-feature-establishing-standards-122682/">VinFast India Special Feature - Establishing Standards</a></p><h2><strong>New Lac Hong Luxury Division to Lead VinFast’s Global Portfolio</strong></h2><p>The brand’s new structure splits its portfolio into three clear divisions: Lac Hong, VF and Green. Lac Hong will represent the luxury arm, focusing purely on high-end electric vehicles. The VF series will continue to cater to mainstream passenger EV buyers. Meanwhile, the Green line will handle commercial mobility solutions such as electric taxis and buses. This clear segmentation helps <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/vinfast/">VinFast</a> target different customer groups across international markets with defined product positioning.</p><h2><strong>The Lac Hong 800S and 900S</strong></h2><p>Design plays a big role in the Lac Hong 800S and 900S. Both EVs feature styling inspired by Vietnamese culture. The front grille gets vertical bamboo-shaped slats, while detailing takes cues from traditional bronze drums. Inside, the cabin uses Nappa leather, rare wood trims and gold-plated accents. The 800S follows a modern design theme, whereas the 900S leans towards a more classical layout.</p><p>

Both luxury EVs use a tri-motor setup with one motor at the front and two at the rear. Combined power output stands at 460kW. The EVs also get a fully active suspension system designed to improve ride comfort and stability across different road conditions. This setup places them among the most powerful electric EVs in VinFast’s current line-up.</p><p>The Lac Hong 900S focuses strongly on rear-seat comfort. It includes a privacy glass partition between the driver and passenger cabin, a starlight headliner, a large projection screen and a foldable workstation. Both the 800S and 900S feature zero-gravity seats and power-assisted doors for rear passengers. The luxury push follows strong domestic growth in 2025, when VinFast delivered 175,099 vehicles, signalling its intent to compete with established global luxury EV brands.</p>

VinFast Unveils Lac Hong 800S and 900S Luxury EVs; Launch Set for 2027

VinFast unveils Lac Hong 800S and 900S luxury electric SUVs with 460kW power and premium features. Global launch set for 2027.

<p>
The Indian automotive market is a rather attractive proposition for automobile manufacturers in today’s challenging times. Customer aspirations for vehicle ownership in India are at record highs, and the ratio of population to vehicles per capita remains low. The market has also been growing by leaps and bounds over the past few years, and there is increasing acceptance of new brands among Indian customers.</p><p>Naturally, all of these factors make India a very attractive market for a carmaker like VinFast, which is aiming to expand globally. As the fourth-largest economy in the world and the world’s third-largest automotive market, India is a natural fit for any brand looking to expand its horizons. No wonder, then, that VinFast has chosen India as a priority market for launching its vehicles and delivering its next phase of growth.</p>

      
    
      
    
<h2>VinFast VF 6: Segment-Leading Battery, ADAS, and Equipment</h2>

<p>Positioned in the rapidly expanding C-segment SUV market, the VF 6 offers a fresh option for Indian customers.</p><p>
      <div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">
        <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/08/VinFast_VF-6-1755595132120.webp" alt="VinFast_VF-6.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;">
      </div>
    </p><p>With VinFast offering only EV products, the VF 6 comes equipped with a sizable 59.6kWh battery pack, which is easily the largest in its segment. This gives it a very promising range of 468km (ARAI-certified), and it also comes with fast charging, going from 10-70% in just 25 minutes.</p><p>But it’s not just the range and battery capacity that attract the VF 6; it comes loaded with features and standard equipment. Safety is, of course, a very important point of VinFast’s product philosophy and, as such, the VF 6 comes equipped with 7 airbags as standard on all its variants. This is also paired with ADAS features and other active and passive safety systems to ensure the VF 6 is safer than any other product in its segment.</p><p>
      <div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">

      </div>
    </p><p>The feature is also supplemented by a 12.9-inch multimedia screen and a heads-up display that enhance the driving experience. Additionally, the VF 6 is equipped with all features one would expect from a car in this segment, including a fully automatic air-conditioning system, automatic headlights, electric seats, and even seats draped in vegan leather.</p>

<h2>VinFast VF 7: Flagship Electric SUV with Dual Battery and AWD Options</h2>

<p>The VF 7 is VinFast’s flagship product in the Indian market and aims to redefine what affordable luxury looks like. Measuring over 4.5 metres in length, the VF 7 is being offered to Indian customers with two different battery packs and five different variants.</p><p>
      <div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">
        <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2026/01/Vinfast-VF-6-&amp;-VF-7_side-profile-dynamic-1768297013702.webp" alt="Vinfast VF 6 &amp; VF 7_side-profile-dynamic.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;">
      </div>
    </p><p>The benefit of the two variants is that the VF 7 is available in both front-wheel and all-wheel drive. The front-wheel-drive version is offered with a 59.6kWh battery pack that gives the VF 7 the ability to charge from 10-70% in just 24 minutes. This battery pack provides the VF 7 with a power output of 174 bhp and 250 Nm of torque.</p><p>But if it’s peak power you are after, the larger 70.8kWh battery pack is for you. With the additional advantage of all-wheel drive with dual motors in the Sky variant, the bigger battery pack produces 349bhp and 500Nm of torque, which means the all-wheel-drive VF 7 can accelerate from 0-100 in just 5.8 seconds! The larger battery pack also means that the VF 7 – depending on the variant you choose – offers up to 532km of range on a single charge in the Wind variant, while the most powerful Sky variant has a claimed range of up to 510km.</p><h2>VinFast India: Premium EVs Focused on Safety, Performance, and Value</h2><p>And you can feel the luxury while sitting in VinFast products, with a smattering of leather finishes, large seats, comfortable space, and an extensive feature list.</p><p>

      </div>
    </p><p> Both the VF 6 and VF 7 offer an enticing proposition for the Indian customer at a very reasonable price point.</p>



VinFast India Special Feature - Establishing Standards

VinFast enters India with global ambition and a clear focus on safety, technology, and value, signalling the start of a new chapter for the market.

<p>VinFast has cleared a major hurdle in India as its VF7 and VF6 electric SUVs have achieved a 5-star rating in the Bharat NCAP crash test. For a brand preparing to establish itself in a competitive EV market, safety certification plays a crucial role. Both models were evaluated under India’s official testing programme, which measures occupant protection in frontal, side and pole impact crashes. The results place the VF7 and VF6 among the highest-rated vehicles tested so far under Bharat NCAP. With Indian customers increasingly checking safety scores before making a purchase decision, this rating gives VinFast a strong foundation as it builds its electric vehicle portfolio in the country.</p>

    If you visit Vietnam, you’ll notice that the Vingroup is pretty much involved in the most important sectors of business. It has a vast real estate empire, runs schools, colleges, and universities, has a presence in the hospitality sector, and manufactures cars and two-wheelers. Of late, one of the core focuses of the Vingroup has been on clean mobility by manufacturing only EVs and also focusing on the safety aspect. At the same time, the company has been looking to widen its horizons and tap into other markets—other than Vietnam, that is—and given how fast the Indian automotive market is growing, it made natural sense for the company to look at tapping into the Indian market and get a share of the automotive market.</p><p>
      <div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">
        <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/09/Vinfast-India-3-1757937829274.webp" alt="Vinfast India-3.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;">
      </div>
    </p><p>Because, if you look at the numbers the Indian automotive sector is doing currently, even a 3-4% market share can be substantial volumes and justify the investment that a company makes in the Indian market.</p>





<h2>Focus on India</h2>

<p>However, as most manufacturers know, if you want to be a successful automotive manufacturer in India and target the mass market, you have to ‘Make in India.’ And VinFast officials understood that from the very start. As a result, they have inaugurated a brand-new, state-of-the-art manufacturing plant in the state of Tamil Nadu to cater to the Indian market. This is VinFast’s third operational plant in the world and its first plant outside Vietnam. Spread over 400 acres, at full capacity, the plant will create 3,000 to 3,500 direct jobs, adding to the Indian economy and, at the same time, expanding the horizons for the company. The plant will initially assemble the company’s two premium electric SUVs, the VF 6 and VF 7. Production is initially starting with a capacity of 50,000 vehicles per year and is scalable up to 150,000 units.</p><p>

      </div>
    </p><p>While on our visit to Vietnam, and now in India, we have had opportunities to drive both the VF 6 and VF 7 and were quite impressed with what both vehicles have to offer. Both vehicles were well-built and offer a host of features—especially ones that Indian customers value the most in today’s competitive market. And with production at VinFast’s India plant starting already, we are excited to see how their cars will fare in the Indian market. Of course, the Indian market is an extremely competitive one, but seeing how nimbly and quickly the VinFast functions as a whole, we are excited to see what they offer to Indian customers and how they adapt to the Indian market.</p><p>

      </div>
    </p><p>Additionally, the feedback that the group will receive from Indian customers will only help the company to produce better cars and cater to a wider customer base. While India is not the easiest of markets for any automotive manufacturer to crack, the fact that the Vingroup is making such a concentrated effort in the Indian market means that the group not only sees potential in the Indian market but also that with new manufacturers coming in, customers get increased choice, which is a win-win scenario for both.

VinFast Special Feature - Ready to Vin?

With the start of its plant in Tamil Nadu, VinFast has achieved perhaps the fastest build-up of an automotive manufacturer in India. We take a look at what makes the company so successful.

The VF 7 – the larger sibling of the VF 6 – is VinFast’s flagship vehicle in its Indian lineup. It uses the same 59.6kWh battery pack as the VF 6, but is available in both front- and all-wheel-drive configurations. Our test car was the all-wheel-drive variant, and honestly, it proved to be quite an impressive product that ticked a lot of the right boxes for our jury. </p><p>The VF 7’s design feels far more cohesive and premium, giving it strong road presence. Its cabin space is also well managed, allowing it to comfortably accommodate five adults. The leather-wrapped dashboard and other interior fitments feel solid and upmarket. Like its smaller sibling, the VF 7 also comes loaded with features, including seven airbags as standard across all variants.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/exclusive-stories/vinfast-vf-6-and-vf-7-special-feature---setting-a-new-standard-121957/">VinFast VF 6 and VF 7 Special Feature - Setting a New Standard</a></p>

<p>On the track, the VF 7 immediately impressed us with its power delivery and overall performance. The chassis feels balanced, and the suspension is well-tuned, making for a genuinely pleasant driving experience. This is also reflected in its commendable lap time of 1:10.6 around the short loop – quite an achievement. That said, it does have a few shortcomings, such as the absence of physical buttons for basic functions like headlight control, forcing you to rely on the central touchscreen – a clear case of digitisation taken a bit too far.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/reviews/car-reviews/vinfast-vf6-vf7-first-drive-review-121279/">Vinfast VF6 &amp; VF7 First Drive Review - Huge Ambition</a></p>

<p>Pricing, however, works strongly in its favour, giving the VF 7 a solid edge in terms of value for money. Ultimately, VinFast’s biggest challenge in India won’t be the product itself but establishing brand recognition and building trust, which can be quite tricky in such a competitive market.

VinFast VF 7 at autoX Awards: Best Cars of 2025 Ranked

The VinFast VF 7 impressed with strong power delivery and solid performance. Its balanced chassis and well-tuned suspension make it genuinely pleasant to drive.

<p>
    That India is one of the most challenging automotive markets in the world is not a secret, yet that hasn’t stopped new brands from trying to crack it. The reason is simple – not only is India among the largest car markets globally, but the potential for growth here in the short to medium term is enormous. It’s no surprise, then, that Vietnam’s Vin Group is making a serious attempt to claim a share of the Indian market through its automotive arm – VinFast.</p>

<p>Although relatively new to the automobile industry, VinFast has been recruiting global talent to ensure its products are good enough to appeal to customers worldwide. Its first offering for India is the VF 6 EV, which we drove in Vietnam and again for our annual track test.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/reviews/car-reviews/vinfast-vf6-vf7-first-drive-review-121279/">Vinfast VF6 &amp; VF7 First Drive Review - Huge Ambition</a></p><p>While VinFast markets the VF 6 as an SUV, we’d place it somewhere between a hatchback and a crossover – a fact reflected in its mixed styling scores. It’s generously equipped, with an impressive list of standard features, but the interior could use some refinement. The surface finishes and build quality, in particular, leave room for improvement.</p>

</div>

<p>In terms of driving, the VF 6 fares much better. Powered by a 59.6kWh battery, it’s offered solely in a front-wheel-drive configuration, producing 201bhp and 310Nm of torque. That said, its 2,028kg kerb weight makes it rather heavy for a car measuring just 4.24 metres in length. On the track, however, the VF 6 quickly proved that its suspension and overall driving dynamics have been tuned with care. You can push it through corners confidently and use the torque to pull it out with ease, even if you do feel its two-tonne mass shifting around.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/news/car-news/vinfast-vf6-vf7-suvs-launched-priced-from-rs-1649-lakh-and-rs-2089-lakh-respectively-121690/">VinFast VF6, VF7 SUVs Launched; Priced From Rs 16.49 Lakh and Rs 20.89 Lakh, Respectively</a></p>

<p>Overall, the VF 6 is a competent, well-rounded product that could benefit from a few design tweaks to make it look more SUV-like and some improvements in terms of quality.
