VinFast Targets European Market with VF 8 Electric SUV

HANOI, VIETNAM - VinFast is making a calculated move into the European market. The new VF 8 C-segment SUV emphasizes customer experience with a leading warranty, user-friendly tech features, and advanced safety systems. This strategy taps into Europe's growing demand for SUVs, particularly evident from the 23% surge in SUV sales in the first half of 2023, according to Automotive News Europe.

The VF 8 aims to set a new benchmark for Vietnamese manufacturing excellence and design, in collaboration with Pininfarina. Externally, the SUV balances modern elegance with timeless appeal, enhancing aerodynamics and functionality. Internally, the VF 8 excels in luxury and practicality, featuring high-end materials and a central display for intuitive control.

Safety is a priority for VinFast, as demonstrated by the VF 8's 4-star Euro NCAP rating. The car achieved an outstanding 89% score in child occupant protection and has been honored with multiple safety awards from ASEAN NCAP.

VinFast's commitment to customer satisfaction is reinforced by a comprehensive warranty and extensive after-sales network in Europe, partnering with Bosch and Mobivia for charging and service needs. The launch of the VF 8, followed by the smaller VF 6 model, underlines VinFast's ambitious plans for a long-term presence in the European electric vehicle market.
