The Vietnamese electric vehicle brand VinFast VF6 is entering the Indian market soon, and the compact VinFast VF6 electric SUV is one of its first offerings. Expected to be priced around ₹25 lakh, the VF6 is loaded with modern features, stylish design, and promises a good driving range. With production already underway in Tamil Nadu, India, this EV is set to arrive by September 2025. Let’s explore what makes the VinFast VF6 a car to watch out for.
India Launch and Bookings Are Officially Open
VinFast VF6 has confirmed that the VF6 will launch in India by September 2025. If you’re interested in buying this electric SUV, you can already place a pre-booking since July 15, 2025. The booking amount is ₹21,000 and is fully refundable.
The company is also preparing for a big launch by opening over 35 showrooms across 27 cities in India. These dealerships will help buyers see, test drive, and maintain their vehicles more easily. It’s clear that VinFast wants to build a strong foundation for its EV business in the country.
What to Expect in Terms of Price and Trims
VinFast VF6 will likely start at around ₹25 lakh (ex-showroom) in India. Two main trims are expected to be available:
- Earth Variant – This will be the base model but still packed with features.
- Wind Variant – A higher-end version with more premium interiors and stronger performance.
Depending on the variant, the final price might go up to ₹30–35 lakh. However, thanks to local production, VinFast may be able to keep prices competitive.
Power, Range and Driving Capabilities
The VF6 is not just about looks – it offers solid performance for an electric SUV. It comes with a 59.6 kWh battery that can deliver up to 399 km of driving range (in the base variant). The more powerful Wind variant gives around 381 km of range, which is still very decent for daily and occasional long-distance use.
In terms of power, the base variant produces 174 horsepower and 250 Nm torque, while the top variant goes up to around 201 horsepower and 310 Nm torque. Both versions come with front-wheel drive and automatic transmission, making the car easy and smooth to drive in city traffic as well as on highways.
Feature Highlights – Tech, Comfort & Safety
Inside the VF6, you’ll find a 12.9-inch touchscreen infotainment system that supports Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. The dashboard looks clean and futuristic, with most functions controlled via the touchscreen.
The higher-end trim adds features like heated and ventilated seats, dual-zone climate control, and possibly a panoramic sunroof. Safety is also well taken care of. You get 8 airbags, Level-2 ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) including adaptive cruise control, automatic emergency braking, lane keeping, and more.
There’s also a 360-degree camera system, a head-up display, and good visibility from the driver’s seat. In short, the VF6 offers a premium experience without going overboard.
Interior and Exterior Design
The VinFast VF6 boasts a bold and futuristic exterior with sleek LED headlights, a clean front grille, and smooth body lines that give it a sporty yet premium look. Its compact size and sharp styling make it perfect for city driving while standing out on the road. Inside, the cabin feels modern and minimalistic, highlighted by a large 12.9-inch touchscreen, soft-touch materials, and either an all-black or dual-tone Mocha Brown interior depending on the variant. With spacious seating, smart storage, and a clutter-free dashboard, the VF6 delivers both comfort and style.

The VinFast will be available in six attractive exterior colours, giving buyers a good mix of bold and elegant choices. Here are the official colour options:
Jet Black – Sleek and classy
Desat Silver – A subtle metallic tone
Infinity Blanc (White) – Clean and modern look
