VinFast VF 5 Plus: Evaluating features, costs, and selling price

Cost-saving in operation - A major advantage of VinFast electric cars

One of the reasons why users increasingly prefer electric cars, including the VF 5 Plus, is the ability to save on operating costs. In addition to the advantage of charging costs, electric cars also require less maintenance because they do not have complex parts like combustion engines, complex transmissions, or exhaust systems.

VF 5 Plus is an economical choice for users for business due to low operating costs and maintenance.

After using the VF 5 Plus for over 80,000 km, Mr. Le Duc Hieu, a technology driver in Hanoi, shared that the cost of an electric car is over 30 million VND/year, including the cost of renting batteries for 1.6 million VND/month and charging costs.

"Currently, I get free charging so I save even more. For businessmen like me, who always prioritize maximizing profits, the VF 5 Plus is the number one economic model," Mr. Hieu remarked.

Top-notch safety equipment and technology in its segment

In addition to familiar technologies such as ABS/EBD brakes or electronic stability control, this A-class model also features a range of equipment such as blind spot warning, rear-cross traffic alert, 6 airbags... Meanwhile, other common A-class models only have 2 airbags with some basic safety features.

The technology factor is something that cannot be ignored when it comes to the VF 5 Plus. With an 8-inch central screen, integrated Vietnamese virtual assistant, the VF 5 Plus offers a fun and convenient driving experience, instead of relying on physical buttons. Users can also easily manage the vehicle through an app on their phone.

Mr. Nguyen Manh Cuong, a VinFast community member, highly values the emergency call feature on the VF 5 Plus. "The system will be automatically activated if the car is involved in a collision or encounters a problem on the road to ensure safety. At that time, VinFast will send a rescue team to assist and completely free of charge," he shared.

Attractive ownership costs

With the promotional programs from VinFast, current consumers can own VinFast's electric A-SUV at a good price.

Customers who buy a car from now until November will receive a series of attractive incentives.

Specifically, from now until the end of November, customers buying the VF 5 Plus will receive incentives of up to nearly 18 million VND. As a result, after the discount, the VF 5 Plus has a selling price starting from 442 million VND. Depending on each person's needs, customers can flexibly choose to receive a range of gifts including: 10 million VND into the VinClub account, free vehicle valet parking (under 5 hours) and priority parking at all locations within the Vingroup ecosystem until July 1, 2026, free battery charging at V-GREEN charging stations until July 1, 2025.

When buying the VF 5 Plus, users save a significant amount of costs due to electric vehicles being fully supported with no registration fees. If a fully imported gasoline vehicle is priced at about 500 million VND, the owner will have to pay nearly 60 million VND in fees, while the VF 5 Plus costs 0 VND.

Buyers of the VF 5 Plus also have the added privilege of 8 color choices, including many youthful colors such as yellow, purple... while the color palette of other models in the same price range usually only offers 4-5 neutral colors.

With a range of advantages and gaining more points in the eyes of Vietnamese consumers, the VF 5 Plus continues to be the leading model in its segment, especially in the last months of the year when the demand for buying cars in Vietnam is high.
