LOS
ANGELES, Nov. 19, 2024 /PRNewswire/ --
VinFast Auto has officially commenced delivery of its
flagship VF 9 all-electric, 7-passenger, 3-row SUV to U.S.
customers. This launch reinforces VinFast's commitment to
establishing a foothold in one of the world's most competitive
automotive markets while offering eco-conscious consumers premium
choices in the full size SUV segment, which currently has limited
electric vehicle options.
Beginning in November, the VF 9 will be available for delivery
across VinFast's retail store network in California and through its dealerships, with
prices starting at $69,800 for
the Eco version and $73,800
for the Plus version. The first VF 9 customers received their
vehicles during a customer event at VinFast's Los Angeles headquarters.
As part of a limited-time promotion for the first 100 VF 9
vehicles delivered in the U.S., VinFast is offering qualified
lessees the Plus version for a lease price of $529 per month. This rate includes a direct
discount of $3,500 and a down payment
of $2,000. VinFast VF 9 Eco will be
available in the U.S. market later this year.
Mr. Mike Nolte, Network Sales
Vice President of VinFast U.S., stated: "We are very
excited to officially hand over the VF 9, VinFast's second e-SUV
model in the U.S. market. VF 9 is one of the few seven-passenger,
3-row electric car models on the market. We believe that the VF 9
will be the ideal vehicle for large families, delivering premium
quality and a luxurious experience while maintaining excellent
value."
The VF 9 is positioned as a seven-passenger, 3-row, all-electric
SUV with dimensions of 201.5 inches in length, 78.9 inches in
width, and 66.7 inches in height, making it ideal for families
seeking spacious, eco-friendly transport. Its impressive ground
clearance of 7.2 inches is ideal for a full-size SUV in today's
market.
The vehicle offers an EPA-estimated range of 330 miles
for the Eco model and 291 miles for the Plus model. It
includes the VinFast app, which offers an extensive network of
public charging options, more than most other OEM or third-party
apps, making it easier for drivers to locate charging stations.
As the flagship model in VinFast's lineup, the VF 9 showcases a
striking Pininfarina design and is equipped with advanced features,
including an enhanced driver-assistance system (ADAS) and a smart
infotainment suite. It includes 11 airbags, ensuring safety at
every mile of the owner's journey. Ongoing software updates will
provide optimal user experience.
Without an internal combustion engine, the electric VF 9 offers
increased cargo capacity compared to its internal combustion
counterparts and includes an additional frunk under the hood. The
interior features a customizable 15.6-inch touchscreen with
internet capabilities, allowing for streaming, web browsing, and
navigation.
The VF 9 comes with an industry-leading warranty and service
package, covering 10 years or 125,000 miles for the vehicle, along
with 24/7 roadside assistance and mobile repair services.
VF 9 owners will also benefit from VinFast's customer support
network, which currently includes 15 stores and 4 service
centers in California and
partnerships with 36 dealerships across 15 states
nationwide. This network is continually growing as VinFast strives
to provide a reliable and premium EV ownership experience for U.S.
drivers.
