Get an electric motorcycle for only half the price of a smartphone
Ms. Le Huyen Anh, a secondary school teacher in Hanoi, recently purchased a VinFast Evo200 electric motorcycle at an incredibly affordable price, despite already owning two petrol motorcycles. By taking advantage of a 25% discount through the Vietnamese Teachers’ Day appreciation program, combined with VinFast’s new pricing policy, she only paid 13.5 million VND to own the Evo200.
“For half the price of a new smartphone, I can now own a powerful and stylish electric motorcycle that is much cheaper than other petrol models on the market. Plus, riding an electric motorcycle is a lot more enjoyable,” shared Ms. Huyen Anh.
Evo200 is currently one of VinFast’s most popular models.
Like Ms. Huyen Anh, many other customers have made the switch to electric motorcycles due to VinFast’s attractive prices and accompanying battery rental policies.
Comparing the price lists of electric motorcycles to petrol models in each segment, it’s clear that VinFast offers much more affordable prices, especially when choosing the battery rental option.
For instance, the national electric motorcycle models Evo200 and Evo200 Lite are priced as low as 18 million VND, which is 1-3 million VND cheaper than popular petrol models like the Honda Blade, Honda Wave RSX FI, or Yamaha SIRIUS DK. Even VinFast’s highest-end model, Theon S, is 10 to 17 million VND cheaper than larger-sized scooters.
Maintenance costs for electric motorcycles are only half that of petrol motorcycles
In addition to the attractive purchase costs, another reason many people are switching to electric motorcycles is the incredibly low maintenance costs associated with VinFast’s new battery rental policy. The policy allows for a monthly mileage limit of 2,000 km on the 350,000 VND/month package, equivalent to just 175 VND/km. On top of the electric charging cost, the energy cost per km traveled by a VinFast electric motorcycle is only slightly over 200 VND/km, much cheaper than the petrol cost, which varies from 250 to over 500 VND/km for different petrol motorcycle models.
This has convinced technology taxi drivers like Mr. Van Thanh (Thuong Tin, Hanoi) to switch to electric motorcycles and bid farewell to the old motorcycles they used for their livelihoods. Mr. Thanh shared: “On average, I drive about 200 km per day. With VinFast’s unlimited mileage battery rental package, it only costs me 990,000 VND/month, saving me over a million VND compared to my previous petrol expenses. Not only do I save more money and increase my income, but using electric motorcycles also helps improve my health compared to when I used petrol motorcycles.”
Low “running costs” and high-quality products are the strengths of VinFast electric motorcycles.
In addition to the initial purchase cost and monthly operation cost, warranty and maintenance costs are also significantly lower for electric motorcycles compared to petrol motorcycles. Electric motorcycle users rarely need to visit the garage as frequently as petrol motorcycle owners, thanks to the simple structure of electric motorcycles. The maintenance process for electric motorcycles also doesn’t require regular oil changes and air filter replacements like petrol motorcycles, translating into significant cost savings. Additionally, due to fewer mechanical failures, electric motorcycles tend to have higher durability.
VinFast’s exceptional after-sales policies also provide users with peace of mind. Currently, VinFast is the only brand that offers mobile repair services (Mobile Service), along with a network of service centers and dealerships in all 63 provinces and cities to meet all repair and maintenance needs. Moreover, the 3-year unlimited mileage warranty policy and the commitment to replace batteries free of charge when the battery quality drops below 70% are currently the best policies on the market.
