India’s electric vehicle market welcomed a game-changer on September 6, 2025, with the launch of the VinFast VF6. As the Vietnamese automaker’s first offering in India, this compact electric SUV takes on rivals like the Hyundai Creta EV, Tata Curvv EV, and Mahindra BE 6. With its sleek design, cutting-edge technology, vibrant color options, and robust warranty, the VF6 is set to capture the hearts of urban EV buyers. Here’s everything you need to know about the VF6’s price, variants, specs, colors, warranty, and what makes it a standout in India’s EV landscape.
VinFast VF6 Pricing and Variants: Affordable Yet Premium
The VinFast VF6 is available in three variants, blending affordability with premium features:
- VF6 Earth: ₹16.49 lakh (ex-showroom)
- VF6 Wind: ₹17.79 lakh (ex-showroom)
- VF6 Wind Infinity: ₹18.29 lakh (ex-showroom)
Priced competitively, the VF6 undercuts rivals like the MG ZS EV while offering a feature-rich package. Bookings are open for a refundable ₹21,000 deposit via VinFastAuto.in or authorized dealerships. Deliveries are slated to begin soon, with VinFast sweetening the deal by offering free charging and maintenance until 2028 for early adopters.
Eye-Catching Design: Modern and Youthful
Designed by Italian studio Pininfarina, the VF6 embodies a “Duality in Nature” aesthetic with a sleek, coupe-like profile. Its compact dimensions (4,241 mm long, 1,834 mm wide, 1,580 mm tall, with a 2,730 mm wheelbase) make it perfect for city driving while exuding a futuristic vibe. Key exterior features include:
- Closed-off grille with vertically stacked triangular LED projector headlights and V-shaped LED DRLs.
- Flush-mounted roof rails, a shark-fin antenna, and an integrated rear spoiler for a sporty stance.
- Wraparound LED taillights connected by a full-width LED light bar, paired with a rear skid plate.
- 18-inch dual-tone alloy wheels enhancing its dynamic appeal.
Vibrant Color Options: A Shade for Every Style
The VF6 offers six striking color options to suit diverse tastes in India:
- Crimson Red: A bold, vibrant hue that emphasizes the SUV’s sporty character.
- Infinity Blanc: A crisp, elegant white for a sophisticated look.
- Jet Black: A sleek, timeless shade for understated elegance.
- Desat Silver: A metallic silver with a modern, contemporary edge.
- Zenith Grey: A refined, neutral grey for subtle style.
- Urban Mint: A fresh, vibrant mint green that appeals to youthful, trendsetting buyers.
These colors allow buyers to personalize their VF6, with some options potentially variant-specific (confirm with your dealer).
Premium Interior: Tech-Focused and Spacious
The VF6’s cabin blends minimalism with advanced technology, offering a premium experience. It features two interior themes: an all-black scheme for the Earth variant and a Mocha Brown and black dual-tone for the Wind and Wind Infinity variants. Key features include:
- 12.9-inch touchscreen infotainment system with wireless Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, Google apps, and a voice assistant.
- Fixed panoramic glass roof (standard on Wind Infinity, optional on others) for an airy cabin feel.
- Level 2 ADAS suite: Adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, blind-spot monitoring, and automatic emergency braking.
- Safety package: Up to 7 airbags, a 360-degree camera, electronic stability control (ESC), front/rear parking sensors, and rain-sensing wipers.
- Comfort features: 8-way power-adjustable driver’s seat, ventilated front seats, dual-zone climate control, ambient lighting, keyless entry, and OTA updates.
With 423 liters of boot space (expandable via folding rear seats) and a flat floor for enhanced rear-seat comfort, the VF6 is practical for families and urban commutes. Two 6-foot adults can sit comfortably back-to-back, despite the sloping roofline.
Powertrain and Performance: Efficient and Agile
The VF6 is powered by a 59.6 kWh battery pack with a front-mounted electric motor, available in two configurations:
- Earth Variant: 174 hp, 250 Nm torque, 468 km ARAI range (399 km WLTP).
- Wind and Wind Infinity Variants: 201 hp, 310 Nm torque, 468 km ARAI range (381 km WLTP).
The VF6 sprints from 0–100 kmph in 8.9 seconds and reaches a top speed of 175 kmph, balancing agility and efficiency. It supports 3.3 kW and 7.2 kW AC charging and Level 3 DC fast charging for quick top-ups. Four regenerative braking modes (Off, Low, Medium, High) enable one-pedal driving, while Eco, Normal, and Sport modes cater to varied driving styles.
Warranty: Comprehensive Coverage for Peace of Mind
VinFast backs the VF6 with an industry-leading warranty package to ensure buyer confidence:
- Vehicle Warranty: 7 years or 2,00,000 km, whichever comes first, covering manufacturing defects and major components.
- Battery Warranty: 8 years or 1,60,000 km, ensuring the battery pack’s performance and longevity.
- Free Maintenance Until 2028: Early adopters benefit from complimentary maintenance, including routine servicing and wear-and-tear parts (subject to terms).
- Roadside Assistance: 24/7 support included for the first 3 years, covering breakdowns and emergencies.
This robust warranty, combined with free charging until 2028, makes the VF6 a low-maintenance, cost-effective choice for Indian EV buyers. Always verify specific terms with VinFast dealers, as conditions may apply.
Local Manufacturing and Ecosystem Support
The VF6 is locally assembled at VinFast’s Thoothukudi, Tamil Nadu facility, built with a ₹500 crore investment. The plant has an initial capacity of 50,000 units annually, scalable to 150,000, supporting both domestic sales and exports to South Asia, the Middle East, and Africa. VinFast’s partnerships with RoadGrid, myTVS, and Global Assure ensure a robust network of 11,000 charging points and 120 workshops nationwide. A collaboration with BatX Energies promotes battery recycling, aligning with India’s sustainable mobility goals.
Why the VF6 Stands Out
- Competitive Pricing: Starting at ₹16.49 lakh, it delivers premium features at a mass-market price.
- Tech-Loaded: Advanced ADAS, connected tech, and a large touchscreen rival pricier EVs.
- Stylish and Personalized: Six vibrant colors and a spacious cabin cater to urban families.
- Robust Warranty: 7-year vehicle and 8-year battery coverage ensure long-term reliability.
- Sustainable Vision: Local production and battery recycling support India’s green goals.
- Growing Network: 32 dealerships across 27 cities, expanding to 35 by year-end, ensure strong after-sales support.
Motors77 Verdict
The VinFast VF6 is a bold contender in India’s EV market, blending sleek Pininfarina design, advanced technology, and a competitive price tag. With vibrant color options like Urban Mint and Crimson Red, a feature-rich cabin, and an industry-leading warranty (7 years for the vehicle, 8 years for the battery), it’s a compelling alternative to the Hyundai Creta EV and Tata Curvv EV. Backed by local manufacturing and a growing charging network, the VF6 is poised to make a lasting impact. If you’re seeking a stylish, tech-savvy, and reliable electric SUV, the VF6 deserves a spot on your test-drive list.
