2024 VinFast VF 9 Will Offer up to 531 km of Range

•    The 2024 VinFast VF 9 will offer a maximum range of 531 km, the Vietnamese automaker confirmed this week.

Vietnamese manufacturer VinFast has shared range figures for the versions of the second model it plans to market in North America. The VF 9 SUV joins the VF 8, which is already starting to arrive in our market. 

When the VF 9 launches before the end of this year, the entry-level model will offer a range of 531 km (330 miles), according to the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency). This will be the capacity of the Eco version. For the Plus variant, range is given at 468 km (291 miles).

In both cases, VinFast has surpassed its original estimates of 438 and 422 km. VinFast needs to prove itself as a new manufacturer, and it knows well that one of the keys to attracting customers is to offer an attractive range. 

“The VF9's 330-mile battery range is among the best on the market, confirming our efforts and dedication to produce competitive vehicles. VinFast expects to export this model to the North American market this year, joining the VF8 model,” said VinFast CEO Le Thi Thu Thuy.
