Speaking at the launch ceremony, Pham Sanh Chau, CEO of VinFast Asia, said, September 6 marks a historic milestone - the launch of cars that are not just made in India, but made by Indians, for Indians. “We are introducing a complete electric mobility ecosystem, thoughtfully designed for Indian families. The VF 6 and VF 7 embody the perfect harmony of practical design, premium quality, and cutting-edge technology that Indian consumers aspire to. Backed by our state-of-the-art Thoothukudi facility and strong ecosystem partnerships, we are committed to supporting India’s vision of becoming a global leader in electric mobility.”

In an interview with the Vietnam News Agency, Anuj Pandey, President of Modelama Group, welcomed the launch, calling the two models a timely addition to India’s EV market. He said their competitive pricing, coupled with the sector’s growth potential, will enable VinFast’s SUVs to generate strong consumer interest and elevate market competition to a new level.

R.K. Ram, Deputy General Manager for Corporate Accounts & Regional Projects at Manatec Electronics Pvt Ltd in Greater Chennai, said both the VF 6 and VF 7 made a positive impression, with the VF 7 offering more spacious interiors. He noted that VinFast’s pledge to provide free charging services for three years is a significant advantage in India, where charging infrastructure remains limited. The company’s focus on developing its own charging network, rather than relying solely on shared infrastructure, reflects a long-term vision for the market.
