As we move toward electric vehicles, all kinds of new car brands have been popping up \u2014 giving the traditional automakers a run for their money. Over the past few years at CES, one of the more interesting of those has been VinFast \u2014 a Vietnamese company that delivered its first cars in the U.S. in November. Now, the company is planning on more releases over the next year \u2014 and at CES 2023, we learned more about what those cars will offer.<\/p>\n

VinFast may not be very well known in the U.S., but it\u2019s actually one of the larger automakers in Vietnam. It certainly doesn\u2019t have the experience in manufacturing on the scale that it\u2019s hoping to in the U.S., but unlike many of the other electric carmakers, it is actually shipping cars \u2014 not just building concepts. The VinFast VF8 crossover and VF9 SUV were announced earlier \u2014 but little was known about the smaller VF6 and VF7 models, until now. Turns out, like their larger siblings, they\u2019re pretty compelling options.<\/p>\n

VinFast VF6<\/h2>\n

The VinFast VF6 is the company\u2019s new entry-level model, offering the smallest size and lowest range. It\u2019s actually available in two variants \u2014 the VF6 Eco and the VF6 Plus. The Eco model offers a longer range, however, even then it maxes out at 248 miles, which is a little low. The Plus model, which is built for better performance, offers up to 237 miles of range.<\/p>\n

The VF6, like VinFast\u2019s other cars, is built with some pretty smart features. The cars come with Level 2 highway assist features, along with lane centering and adaptive cruise control. These are features that we\u2019ve come to expect from electric cars in 2022, but it\u2019s still nice to see them here.<\/p>\n

On the inside, the VinFast VF6 offers its own infotainment system that at a basic glance looks a lot like Tesla\u2019s. It also supports CarPlay and Android Auto, which is pretty handy.<\/p>\n

I was able to see the VinFast VF6 at CES 2023, and while it\u2019s not necessarily the sleekest-looking car out there, it\u2019s far from ugly \u2014 and it\u2019s expected to be relatively inexpensive. Unfortunately, we don\u2019t yet know exactly how much it will cost. Orders for the VF6 will be open for U.S. customers in March, according to the company. Deliveries are expected by the end of the year.<\/p>\n

VinFast VF7<\/h2>\n

The VinFast VF7 steps up things a little in terms of size, but it\u2019s still nowhere near as big as the VF9. Like the VF6, there are two VF7 models, a VF7 Eco and VF7 Plus. The Eco model is able to deliver a maximum range of 280 miles, while the more powerful Plus model can hit 268 miles.<\/p>\n

The Plus is more powerful, but it\u2019s also the only one that has all-wheel drive \u2014 as there\u2019s no AWD VF6. Like the VF6, you\u2019ll get the smart driver-assist features, along with VinFast\u2019s big screen and infotainment system.<\/p>\n

The VinFast VF7 isn\u2019t as modern-looking as some EVs out there, but it still offers a pretty stylish design overall. The larger size should make it more appealing to many U.S. customers, too. Like the VF6, the VF7 will be open for orders starting in March with deliveries by the end of the year \u2014 though we still don\u2019t know how much it will cost.<\/p>\n
