VinFast VF8 1st Generation

2023–2026 · VF8 · suv

VinFast's mid-size crossover SUV and the brand's first major US product, with deliveries to American customers beginning early 2023 (after a 2022 launch announcement). Dual-motor AWD across the lineup: Eco trim makes 348 hp, Plus trim makes 402 hp. Samsung SDI batteries ranging 82 to 87.7 kWh. Early US cars were offered with an unusual battery-subscription business model that VinFast later wound down in favor of conventional battery ownership. Built in Hai Phong, Vietnam.

Watch out: REAL ISSUE: Early-build US 2023 cars had widespread documented complaints around build quality (panel gaps, paint defects), software bugs, EPA range falling far short of the marketing claim, and a months-long delay between original delivery promises and actual shipments. VinFast service network in the US is small. Treat as an early-adopter purchase, not a mainstream EV.
