VinFast has announced the suspension of its battery replacement service for the old models of electric motorcycles Ludo, Impes, and Klara S, to switch to a battery rental model. This new service will be implemented starting from November 2022.
The reason for discontinuing the battery replacement service is for VinFast to focus more on the development of battery rental services. Customers using the Ludo, Impes, and Klara S models will receive a 6-month battery rental subscription, equivalent to 2.1 million dong. Customers who choose the battery rental service will still be eligible for a free battery replacement if the battery quality drops below 70%.
VinFast has been providing the battery replacement service since 2022, allowing users of the aforementioned models to choose to replace the battery instead of waiting to recharge. The fee for each replacement is 25,000 dong/battery.
Recently, VinFast introduced the Evo200 model, which has the lowest price but the highest range. The bike comes in two versions, Evo200 and Evo200 Lite, both priced at 22 million dong (including VAT and a 400W charger). This is the most “affordable” model in VinFast’s range of products equipped with the new generation LFP battery technology.
The Evo200 can reach a maximum speed of 70 km/h, while the corresponding figure for the Evo200 Lite is 49 km/h. VinFast Evo200 applies LFP battery technology and is equipped with an in-hub motor located on the rear wheel, allowing for a range of up to 205 km per charge under operating conditions with a speed of 30 km/h and a rider weighing 65 kg. Additionally, both the battery and motor meet the IP67 water resistance standard, enabling the vehicle to operate stably in water up to 0.5 meters deep for 30 minutes. The bike also comes with a pre-equipped 400W charger, capable of charging from 20% to 100% in about 8 hours, and from 0% to 100% in about 10 hours. Customers can also purchase an additional 1000W charger to reduce the charging time to about 4 hours.
