VinFast VF MPV 7 Debuts in India at Rs. 24.49 Lakh: What are the Key Offerings?

Vietnamese electric vehicle manufacturer VinFast has officially launched its electric VF MPV 7 at Rs. 24.49 Lakh (ex-showroom). Positioned as a three-row electric multi-purpose vehicle (MPV), this is the brand's third offering in the country. This follows the VF 6 and VF 7 SUVs launch. Online bookings are open with a token amount of Rs. 21,000.

Design and Interior Enhancement

The VF MPV 7 follows VinFast’s signature "Dynamic Balance" design language. The exterior is characterized by a futuristic front fascia featuring a full-width LED DRL bar that integrates the brand logo. Its profile is defined by a 4,740 mm length and a generous 2,840 mm wheelbase, providing substantial cabin space.

Inside, the MPV adopts a minimalist philosophy. The dashboard is dominated by a floating touchscreen infotainment system, significantly reducing physical switchgear. All these are offered with a 2+3+2 seating configuration, accompanied by premium black and brown leatherette upholstery. Key interior features include:

• Tilt and telescopic steering, keyless entry, and ambient lighting.
• Height-adjustable driver’s seat and a floating center console for optimized storage.
• Three distinct modes: Eco, Normal, and Sport, tuned for varying road conditions.

The vehicle is offered in 6 premium shades - Solar Ruby, Moonlit Ocean, Infinity Blanc (White), Jet Black, Zenith Grey & Introspective Brown.

Technical Specifications and Performance

Equipped with a 60 kWh battery pack, the VF MPV 7 is engineered for both city commuting and highway travel. It supports 80 kW DC fast charging, allowing the battery to replenish from 10% to 70% in approximately 30 minutes.

Market Positioning and Safety

VinFast is targeting the mid-range EV segment by keeping the price point at Rs. 24.49 Lakh. This puts the VF MPV 7 in direct competition with the BYD eMax 7 and the upcoming Kia Carens EV.

Safety is managed through a comprehensive suite including multiple airbags, Electronic Stability Control (ESC), Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS), and all-disc brakes. A specialized "Limo Green" variant is also anticipated, specifically catering to the premium taxi and fleet segment.

The launch of the VinFast VF MPV 7 represents a strategic move to capture the three-row electric segment in India. With a combined 500 km range and attractive price that rivals established MPVs, VinFast is positioning itself as a serious contender.
