VinFast VF 6
Due to VinFast's struggles in North America, the launch of the VF 6 appears increasingly unlikely. Backed by a generous 7-year/160,000 km comprehensive warranty, this small, FWD-only electric crossover will be available in two versions powered by a 60.8kWh battery. The Eco model will produce 174 horsepower. The VF 6 Plus, meanwhile, will add a panoramic sunroof, a head-up display, and deliver 201 horsepower. Range is expected to be around 300 km.
