VinFast VF 9 Electric SUV Patented in India: What to Expect?

VinFast appears to be preparing another addition to its electric vehicle line-up in India. The Vietnamese carmaker, which currently sells the VF 6, VF 7 and VF MPV 7 in the country, has patented its flagship VF 9 electric SUV in India. The development comes a few months after the company filed a patent for the VF 8.
Key Highlights:
  • VinFast has patented the VF 9 electric SUV in India.
  • The five-metre SUV gets three rows of seating and a 123kWh battery.
  • It produces 402bhp and 620Nm with a dual-motor AWD setup.
  • The VF 9 claims a range of up to 626km on a single charge.
The VF 9 is a large three-row electric SUV measuring around five metres in length. If introduced in India, it could become the biggest and most premium model in VinFast's local range.

VinFast VF 9: Design and Features

VinFast VF9 Global Spec

The VF 9 follows VinFast's familiar design language but has a relatively low stance compared with some other large SUVs. The SUV has an unladen ground clearance of 184mm.
It gets a full-LED lighting setup, vegan leather upholstery and a panoramic sunroof. Inside, the dashboard has a minimalist layout and does not feature a conventional instrument cluster. Instead, most information is displayed through the large 15.6-inch touchscreen infotainment system.
Other features include ambient lighting, an Alexa AI-powered voice assistant and dedicated physical buttons on the centre console for selecting different drive modes.

VinFast VF 9: Battery and Range

Powering the VF 9 is a large 123kWh battery pack paired with a dual-motor all-wheel-drive system. The setup produces 402bhp and 620Nm of torque.
The electric SUV is claimed to deliver a range of up to 626km on a single charge. For charging, it supports both 6.6kW single-phase and 11kW three-phase AC charging.
