The delivery time of the VF 6 vehicle model by VinFast to its first customers on December 30, 2023, is generating significant interest among consumers, especially those who have placed deposits and are eagerly awaiting the car for use during the upcoming Tet holiday.
Receive the car after just 2 months of placing a deposit
On December 26, VinFast’s fanpage made an official announcement about the delivery timeline for the VF 6 smart electric car model to customers, surprising many. Specifically, after only 3 months since its launch in the Vietnamese market (on September 29, 2023), the first commercial VF 6 cars will hit the road starting from December 30, 2023.

This information immediately became a hot topic on car forums. Customers who have placed deposits for VinFast’s B-SUV model are thrilled as they will receive their cars before Tet, allowing them to meet their family travel needs and enjoy the Lunar New Year with their favorite car. “What I like the most is that I don’t have to pay extra to receive the car before Tet, unlike many petrol car buyers. I am very satisfied with VinFast’s thoughtful customer care policy,” shared Hau Vu on an electric car forum, receiving ample support and agreement from fellow members.
What’s particularly impressive is that VinFast will deliver the VF 6 car in just 2 months after the deposit is placed. This waiting period is comparable to the waiting time for some petrol car models in the market. However, it is only VF 6 customers who can experience the excitement of being among the first people in the world to own a completely new car model. This further reinforces the reputation of the Vietnamese car manufacturer, showcasing their commitment to delivering cars to customers by 2023. “VinFast keeps its word, it’s true,” shared Thanh Nguyen, an excited customer who was recently contacted by VinFast for car delivery.
Therefore, VF 6 will be the 5th electric car model officially launched by VinFast for commercial purposes, following VF e34, VF 8, VF 9, and VF 5 Plus. With VF 6 being delivered within 2 months of placing a deposit (starting from October 20, 2023), VinFast demonstrates an increasing ability to master technology and optimize the production process, as the waiting time for car delivery continues to shorten.
“The delivery of the VF 6 to customers within just 2 months of placing a deposit, with a remarkable level of completion, is evidence of the growing capabilities of the Vietnamese car manufacturer in research, development, and car production,” commented Tran Quoc Huy, a marketing expert in the automotive industry.

VF 6 Plus with exceptional 150 kW and 310 Nm engines in the B segment
VF 6 comes in two versions: Base and Plus. The Base version has a listed price of 675 million VND (excluding battery) and 765 million VND (including battery), while the Plus version is priced at 765 million VND (excluding battery) and 855 million VND (including battery). Both versions of VF 6 are equipped with a 59.6 kWh LFP battery, providing an operating range of 399 km and 381 km per full charge, respectively (according to WLTP standards). The car features an electric motor with a maximum power of 100 kW and 150 kW, corresponding to a maximum torque of 135 Nm and 310 Nm, superior to other petrol models in the same segment, offering an exciting and exhilarating driving experience.
Like other members of VinFast’s “electric car family,” VF 6 comes packed with advanced technologies and intelligent features such as pre-collision warning, lane change warning, front/rear parking assist, blind spot warning, 360-degree surround monitoring, VinFast virtual assistant with multi-dialect Vietnamese voice interaction for vehicle control and Q&A, stand-up comedy storytelling, and more.
Starting from early 2024, VinFast will further enhance the VF 6 (Plus version) with additional ADAS features through free remote software updates. These features include traffic jam assist, highway driving assist, lane-keeping assist and centering, adaptive journey monitoring, traffic sign recognition, emergency braking (front/rear), and more. This continuous improvement makes the car smarter over time and delivers new experiences to users.
Customers who have placed a deposit for VF 6 will start receiving their cars from December 30, 2023
VF 6 applies a monthly battery rental fee of only 1.8 million VND for driving under 3,000 km per month, and 3 million VND for driving over 3,000 km per month (with no mileage limit). According to calculations, the electric SUV’s energy cost is less than 500 VND per km, which is 2 to 3 times lower than that of petrol cars in the same segment.
In addition to energy costs, VF 6 also boasts extremely low maintenance costs due to its simple structure with an electric motor powertrain, requiring fewer repair and replacement parts compared to traditional petrol cars. The more it is driven, the more VF 6 electric car owners can save on maintenance costs. This is one of the advantages that helps VF 6 quickly gain popularity among many Vietnamese families.
VF 6 is one of the top choices in the B-SUV segment. VinFast’s car has been awarded the “Exemplary Passenger Car for Families” at the Better Choice Awards 2023 and has been nominated for numerous prestigious automotive awards in Vietnam.
