VinFast, the Vietnamese EV brand that everyone’s buzzing about, just touched down in India, and it’s not easing in. Leading the pack is the VF 7—an SUV that’s jam-packed with tech, looks and power, and is split into five versions to suit Indian roads, styles, and every kind of pocket.
BigShow Arrival: VinFast Fires Up Its Indian Rollout
VinFast, that up-and-coming EV superstar, officially kicked off its Indian tour on September 6, rolling out two electric beauts: the slice-and-dice compact VF 6 and the jaw-dropping VF 7. With backing from the huge VinGroup empire, the brand is not just dipping a toe; it’s cannonballing into the deep end with a ₹4,000-crore factory setup in Tamil Nadu.

The mission is simple—built in India, for India, with exports on the roadmap. Of course, it’s the VF 7 that’s grabbing every headline.
Say Hi to the VF 7: Power Dressed to Kill
The VF 7 is not just another EV rolling off the line; it’s a high-voltage calling card. Think tough looks served on stunning modern style. Its slinky coupe-SUV shape, illuminated to perfection, flush pop-out handles, and razor-sharp aerodynamic curves will stop traffic and shoot selfies in seconds.
At 4,545 mm long and riding on a 2,840 mm wheelbase, the VF 7 makes a strong, confident statement on Indian roads. With 190 mm of ground clearance, it’s ready to glide over the potholes, shifting speed bumps, and random construction sites our cities serve up daily.

Slide inside, and the feel is pure minimalism. Instead of a bulky dash, the VF 7 beams its most important info straight onto the windscreen with a smart Head-Up Display (HUD). A 12.9-inch touchscreen rules the centre console, while wireless Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, and handy over-the-air updates keep your digital life completely in sync and the car upgraded.
Five Variants, One for Everyone
VinFast is rolling out the VF 7 in five makes—Earth, Wind, Wind Infinity, Sky and Sky Infinity—and kicking the party off with a price of ₹20.89 lakh (ex-showroom, intro price). Here’s the skinny on each model:

Hit the Road Ready
The VF 7 is living proof that battery power does both: range for road trips and thrills for red lights.
| Specification | Earth | Wind / Wind Infinity | Sky / Sky Infinity |
|---|---|---|---|
| Battery | 59.6 kWh | 70 kWh | 70 kWh |
| Motors | Single | Single | Dual |
| Drivetrain | FWD | FWD | AWD |

Whisper-quiet motors feed you instant torque, so every drive feels smooth and supercharged at the same time.



Safety You’ll Actually Use
Level 2 safety tech is included on every VF 7, because peace of mind is as important as horsepower:
-   Lane Keep Assist Â
-   Adaptive Cruise Control Â
-   Automatic Emergency Braking Â
-   Blind Spot Monitoring Â
-   Roll-Over Mitigation Â
-   Rear Parking Sensors Â
-   7 Airbags Â
-   ISOFIX Mounts Â
The VF 7 also climbs the charts with a 5-star Bharat NCAP rating, proving that VinFast believes safety should ride shotgun.
Built for India, Aiming for Bigger Markets
Instead of shipping the VF 7, VinFast is rolling it off the lines in India. Their new EV plant in Tamil Nadu is the brand’s first factory outside of Vietnam and proves they’re in it for the long haul. Production lines are buzzing right now, and soon they’ll start opening sales and service shops in every major Indian city.

Bottom Line: A Fresh Challenger Is Here
With bold looks, a tech-rich interior, sporty models, and price tags that are hard to beat—all coming from a factory down the road—the VinFast VF 7 is ready to shake up the Indian EV scene. If you’re buying an EV for the first time or trading in a petrol SUV, the VF 7 is promising a smart mix of price, performance, and a splash of Vietnamese style that’s hard to ignore.
