Founded in 2017, VinFast is one of the newer automotive brands, and it has just recently started operating in the US. The Vietnamese automaker specializes in the production of electric vehicles, and it currently has two SUV EVs in its repertoire. One of the unique qualities of the brand is its battery subscription plan, which reduces the initial purchase price and shunts the responsibility and cost of maintenance onto the dealership or factory.
This is a list of the VinFast electric car models currently for sale in the USA:
Model | Power | Engine | Base Price |
---|---|---|---|
VinFast VF 8 | 349 hp | Electric | $46,000 |
VinFast VF 9 | 402 hp | Electric | $76,000 |
As a new brand with only two models to choose from, VinFast will need to create a space for itself in the US market. To do just that, it has some unique strategies that will either attract or repel certain consumers. Here are some of the pros and cons that stem from this approach.
