After being showcased at the Bharat Mobility Global Expo 2025, the VinFast VF6 and VinFast VF7 will be launched in India tomorrow, on September 6, 2025. These two electric SUVs will mark the debut of the Vietnamese carmaker in India, after which it is expected to be followed by the VinFast VF3. That being said, if you are keen to know more about the VF6 and VF7, here’s a detailed description of everything you can expect from the upcoming VinFast offerings:
VinFast VF6
Vinfast’s VF6 eSUV will be a rival to popular compact electric offerings, including the Tata Curvv EV, Hyundai Creta Electric and Mahindra BE 6.
The exterior design of the VinFast VF6 features clean body lines that give it a very understated and elegant look. It gets projector LED headlights, LED DRLs that are placed in the shape of an eyebrow and feature a VinFast logo in the centre that makes it look unique. It runs on 18-inch alloy wheels and is equipped with LED light bars at the rear that are connected via a VinFast logo, similar to the DRLs. It also gets thick body cladding that runs across the lower portion of the eSUV, which makes it look rugged.
The cabin features a dual-tone theme, which is expected to vary as per the chosen variant. It gets a 3-spoke steering wheel, a 12.9-inch touchscreen infotainment system, but misses out on a driver’s display. The instrumentation is done on a coloured head-up display (HUD) that makes the cabin look minimal and modern.
VinFast is yet to reveal the powertrain details of the India-specific model, but here are details from the internationally available VF6:

VinFast VF7
The VinFast VF7, as the nomenclature suggests, will be a bigger sibling to the VF6 that will square off against the Hyundai Ioniq 5, BMW iX1 LWB and also the upcoming Volvo EX30.
The VF7 gets an aggressive design with plenty of cuts and creases that make it look bold. While the LED DRLs are the same as VF6, the projector LED headlights get another set of DRLs that give it a futuristic look. It is equipped with flush-type door handles, larger 19-inch alloy wheels, sleek lightbar acting as the tail light, between which VinFast has placed its logo.
The VF7’s interior also gets a dual-tone finish, and the premiumness is enhanced by the usage of a lot of leatherette materials on all major touchpoints. While the touchscreen and HUD are the same as the VF6, it gets other amenities like an 8-way power-adjustable driver’s seat, ventilated front seats, dual-zone auto AC and a panoramic glass roof.
