It also offers seven airbags, a 360-degree camera, rain-sensing wipers, and multiple driving modes such as Eco, Normal, Sport, and special utility settings like Camp and Pet modes.
Warranty and Support
VinFast is backing the VF6 with a 10-year warranty, which is among the longest in the segment. The brand is also setting up showrooms, charging stations, and service networks across major Indian cities to support its EV ecosystem.
