Equipment that exceeds its price range , capable of handling any terrain.
After a year of using the VinFast VF5 electric car and driving over 31,000 km in various road conditions, Mr. Truong Ngoc Son said that the electric A-SUV brought more surprises than he expected. In the city, the VF5 is compact, maneuverable, and "goes into narrow alleys very confidently," even more comfortable than some hatchback models he had used before.
Despite its compact exterior, the interior surprised Mr. Son, especially the rear seats which are as spacious as many B-segment cars. The luggage compartment is large enough for two large suitcases and four carry-on suitcases for long family trips. If you need to carry bulky items, a simple folding of the seats expands the space "surprisingly".
Regarding safety, Mr. Son said that the VF 5 gives him a great sense of security. "It's a small car but it has blind spot sensors, reverse sensors, and six airbags," he said. He has also witnessed many collisions involving the VF 5 and found that the airbags deploy effectively in many positions, helping to keep passengers safe.
While Mr. Son mainly drives in the city, Mr. Luan, the founder of the LuMiGo channel and a VF5 owner, has driven his beloved car over 24,000 km in just the past year, including challenging mountain passes. According to him, the VF5 engine (with 134 horsepower and 135 Nm of torque) is so powerful that overtaking trucks or climbing mountain passes is a breeze. "Driving in the city is smooth and agile, while on highways or mountain passes, the car is stable and doesn't vibrate . Accelerating is smooth, without the feeling of gear changes like gasoline cars," Mr. Luan said.
What Luân liked most was the smoothness and cleanliness of the VF5. There was no gasoline smell, no loud noise, providing a pleasant experience for the whole family on long journeys.
Cost-effective , convenient to operate : Owners "love it more the longer they use it."
For many owners, peace of mind with the VF5 is doubled by its "extremely reasonable" operating costs. According to Mr. Luan LuMiGo, one of the "privileges" of VinFast electric vehicle users is the free charging policy until June 2027. This policy helps him save about 62 million VND in fuel costs if he drives an average of 12,000 km/year for 3 years.
Even after the free trial period ends, the cost of charging is only about 40,000 VND/100 km, which is 1/4 the price of a gasoline car. "Drivers who run ride-hailing services save even more, and can even profit from the car before the warranty expires," Mr. Luan affirmed.
Maintenance costs are also a big plus. Specifically, the cost at 12,000 km is only about 400,000 VND and at 24,000 km it's about 600,000 VND – a very reasonable amount compared to gasoline cars, which cost at least several million VND for each maintenance. "The total operating and maintenance costs over the past two years have been less than 2 million VND," Mr. Luan shared.
Besides the cost, the content creator of the Lumigo channel also pointed out that a key factor reassuring the user community is the V-Green system's current network of over 150,000 charging stations, even in remote areas. Thanks to this dense coverage, Mr. Luan affirmed that he almost never has to worry about his car running out of battery, because "just open the app and you can find the nearest station." He emphasized that charging his car is so simple that the battery will be fully charged before he finishes his meal.
Cost-effective yet a top-performing vehicle in its segment, it's easy to understand why the VF5 consistently ranks among the best-selling cars in the Vietnamese market. As the year draws to a close, the hype surrounding this VinFast SUV intensifies with a series of attractive offers. Owners will receive a 4% discount on the vehicle price, support ranging from 10-15 million VND in the trade-in program for gasoline-powered cars, a 2% discount when ordering through vinfastauto.com, a free two-year comprehensive insurance policy (which can be converted into cash) worth 12 million VND, and free advanced color selection worth 8 million VND.
In addition, customers will receive a gift in the form of VinClub points worth 10 million VND when registering a vehicle in Hanoi or Ho Chi Minh City. The total value of these incentives can reach over 70 million VND.
From the real-world experiences of numerous owners to figures on operating costs and on-the-road incentives, the VinFast VF5 is proving its position as the most popular A-SUV on the market. Sales reaching nearly 38,500 vehicles in 11 months, far surpassing its competitors, is the clearest evidence of the appeal of this exceptional model.
