VinFast VF 2 targets urban commuters with compact electric design
The VinFast VF 2 is positioned as a practical electric vehicle solution for urban commuters in Vietnam. Designed with a compact exterior measuring 3,090 mm in length and 1,496 mm in width, the vehicle aims to balance maneuverability in crowded city streets with sufficient interior space for up to four passengers.
Technical specifications include a wheelbase of 2,065 mm and a minimum turning radius of 4.45 m, facilitating easier parking and navigation in tight spaces. The electric powertrain utilizes a rear-mounted motor and a battery pack located under the floor, providing a usable capacity of 18.3 kWh and a maximum driving range of 210 km per charge.
With a listed price starting at 188 million VND (including the battery), the VF 2 targets first-time car buyers and those transitioning from motorcycles. The vehicle features practical amenities for families, such as ISOFIX child seat mounts, and is marketed alongside green transition incentives and flexible financing options to lower the barrier to electric vehicle ownership.
