No Compromise

The VinFast VF 6 and VF 7 make it clear that there is no compromise on the premium they offer, while boasting of a very competitive price range in India

ONE OF THE BIGGEST BALANCING ACTS carmakers have to tackle when introducing a car is to offer a decent enough package without letting costs soar high in the process.

It's quite a difficult challenge as there's normally a compromise in either the creature comforts to keep costs low or having a lot of premiums, as well as a hefty price tag. It's rare to come across a fine balance of the two, but when it's achieved, it is impressive indeed.

That's exactly what the electric sport utility vehicles (SUV), VinFast VF 6 and VF 7, have achieved, with the former being offered at a price ranging from Rs 16.49 lakh to Rs 18.29 lakh (three variants) and the latter from Rs 20.89 lakh to Rs 25.49 lakh (all prices, ex-showroom) across five variants. This pricing has played an important part in why these two electric SUVs have attracted attention almost immediately, and that's exactly what VinFast needs to make a strong first impression. Here's a deeper dive into why this competitive price range is a big deal for VinFast's nascent journey in India.
