Captain's seat, ADAS and comfort on the go: Why VinFast VF 9 makes a difference in the segment

Design, operation, features are all outstanding

Having been with his companion VinFast VF 9 since the second half of 2023, Mr. Le Hoang Quan and his family have traveled many times on the route Ho Chi Minh City - Nha Trang - Da Lat - Tay Ninh. "At first, my family was hesitant because electric cars were new. But after driving, we found it very convincing," Mr. Le Hoang Quan recalled.

The reason lies not only in the engine numbers or size, but also in the captain's seat with full electric adjustment, massage, ventilation, heating, separate armrests... In addition, Mr. Quan likes the feeling of instant acceleration but not shock of VF 9 - a factor that helps the experience of the person sitting in the car become complete, less tired on long journeys, especially for the elderly.

From the driver’s perspective, Mr. Tong Quoc Long, a businessman in Ho Chi Minh City, said that he used to be afraid to hold the steering wheel because driving was very stressful. Since using the VF 9, he drives more on weekends. “I am less tired because the car has adaptive cruise control, traffic jam assistance and intelligent speed adjustment; the Vietnamese voice assistant also helps me relax,” he said.

Regarding the series of safety equipment, the car owner gave many compliments when the car also has anti-glare mirrors, 11 airbags and ADAS level 2 package with lane keeping features, lane departure warning... In addition, according to him, the 15.6-inch central screen focuses most of the operations, along with HUD displaying speed and navigation on the windshield to help the driver concentrate more.

On the exterior, many car owners admit to being "fascinated" by the seamless, modern design lines combined with the impressive body proportions of the VF 9. "It looks very impressive on the street ," said Mr. Vu Minh Thanh, a car owner in Ho Chi Minh City, excitedly. In addition, according to this person, the long wheelbase of the VF 9 both creates recognition and increases the usable space inside.

“ Overall, VinFast VF 9 is completely different from other gasoline cars in the same price range because of its business-class luxury , from design to equipment and operation,” Mr. Thanh affirmed.

The most livable electric vehicle ecosystem in the region

For many car owners, the VF 9 is not only a car for gently cruising the streets but also a "war SUV" that can conquer all roads.

In July 2025, the VF 9 Brothers Community - VF 9 Club took the journey "The Ultimate Rally": 26-30 days, about 9,000-10,000 km, through 5 Southeast Asian countries: Vietnam, Laos, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore. This is not just a road trip, but a comprehensive test for VinFast VF 9 with a continuous travel route, encountering bad roads, hot and humid climate, different charging infrastructure...

Mr. Tran Duc Hanh - a member of the group said that during the trip, the car could handle every situation easily. He even called this "the most gentle long-term challenge tour", and said that such roads could not push the VF 9 to its limits. "The car was so leisurely that every night we still had energy to sit and chat" , Mr. Hanh added.

Regarding infrastructure, Mr. Hanh believes that Vietnam is a "golden land" for electric car users thanks to the application for finding charging stations, easy navigation and payment, and the coverage of charging stations from urban areas to many remote areas. Mr. Tran Duc Hanh said that during his previous driving of VF 9 across the country, he realized that Vietnam is leading in coverage and synchronization of infrastructure with more than 150,000 charging ports in the V-Green network.

Regarding costs, many car owners participating in the journey shared the feeling of "happiness" because charging costs in other countries range from 8,000-12,000 VND/kWh while in Vietnam, VinFast users are still free to charge until June 30, 2027.

From practical experiences, for many car owners, VF 9 is not only a powerful and comfortable SUV, but also a companion that makes every journey more relaxing.
