help VinFast VF9 FAQ
Is the VinFast VF9 a three-row SUV, and how many seats does it have?
Yes, the VF9 is a three-row electric SUV with seating for up to seven, positioned as the family flagship above the smaller two-row VF8. It's aimed squarely at other three-row EVs rather than compact crossovers.
How does the VF9's range compare to the Kia EV9's?
VinFast advertises up to roughly 310 miles on a charge, which puts it in the same neighborhood as the Kia EV9 — the EV9's long-range rear-wheel-drive version is EPA-rated around 304 miles. Real-world range for both drops noticeably with a full load of passengers.
What warranty does VinFast offer on the VF9 in the US?
VinFast has marketed an unusually long 10-year/125,000-mile vehicle warranty in the US to offset buyer concerns about a new brand. That's considerably longer than the typical 4 or 5-year bumper-to-bumper coverage from legacy automakers.
Where is the VF9 built, and who is behind VinFast?
The VF9 is built at VinFast's plant in Hai Phong, Vietnam. The company is the automotive arm of Vingroup, Vietnam's largest conglomerate, founded by billionaire Pham Nhat Vuong, and it has announced plans for a manufacturing site in North Carolina, though that timeline has slipped.
