VinFast VF 7 Targets Cooler, Quieter, Cheaper Indian Road Trips
The VinFast VF 7 is an electric SUV designed to make family trips more comfortable.
It has extra space so passengers can stretch out.
Because it uses an electric motor, the cabin is quieter than a conventional car.
Owners can cool the car using a phone before they get inside.
Some versions have seats that can blow cool air and systems that help filter the cabin air.
The car can charge quickly during a meal or rest stop.
VinFast says charging at its V-GREEN stations is free until March 31, 2029.
The SUV can travel up to 496 kilometers, depending on the version.
The VinFast VF 7 offers a 2,840 mm wheelbase and flat floor for a more spacious rear cabin.
Users can remotely activate the SUV’s HVAC through a smartphone app before entering the car.
Depending on the variant, features include ventilated seats, dual-zone air conditioning, air ionization and PM1.0 filtration.
The VF 7 can DC fast-charge from 10% to 70% in about 26-28 minutes, depending on conditions and variant.
