The scooter continues to use the VinFast 1,800W electric motor, providing performance equivalent to 110cc internal combustion engine scooters currently available on the market. In terms of technology, the Vinfast Klara S still has IP67-rated water and dust resistance, allowing the scooter to operate normally even when submerged in water up to 0.5m for 30 minutes. Klara S 2022 is also equipped with an eSIM, allowing users to remotely monitor the vehicle’s status and track its location through a mobile app via GSM or Bluetooth connectivity.

Of note, the VinFast Klara S 2022 features an LFP battery that allows for a range of up to 194km on a single charge, a top speed of about 80km/h, and a 22L storage space. Along with the new range of electric scooters from VinFast is a new 1000W charger that fully charges the scooter in about 6 hours.

The LFP battery developed by VinFast and Gotion High-Tech offers superior durability, stability, and safety. After more than 2,000 charge/discharge cycles, the battery can still retain up to 70% of its energy and ensure fire safety in all cases. Notably, the LFP battery does not contain rare metals such as Cobalt and Nickel, significantly reducing its environmental impact.
