VinFast VF 7: A sports car and family SUV in one

Fatherhood may change priorities, but it doesn’t have to mean sacrificing driving excitement. With the VinFast VF 7, dads can enjoy the thrill of a performance-oriented electric SUV while meeting the demands of daily family life.

Time changes everything. The days of revving a high-performance coupe on an open road, feeling the asphalt beneath the tires, seem like a distant memory when the realities of fatherhood take over. Early morning school runs replace late-night drives. Grocery lists replace performance tuning guides. But the need for speed is well alive, just waiting for the right machine.

Enter the VinFast VF 7, a high-performance all-electric C-SUV that blends the thrill of spirited driving with the practicality required for family life. No longer does an enthusiast dad have to choose between excitement and responsibility because the VF 7 delivers both.

Fast enough for a thrill, smooth enough for a sleeping child

Under the hood — or rather, beneath the floor — lies the heart of the VF 7’s appeal: an electrified powertrain engineered for both power and efficiency. Two configurations cater to different driving preferences. 

The dual-motor all-wheel-drive Plus variant boasts 500 Nm of torque, launching from 0-100 kph in 5.8 seconds. For those who prefer a balanced, efficient drive, the VF 7 Base offers 250 Nm of torque in a front-wheel-drive setup. The power may be tamer, but the experience is anything but dull. 

The electric torque makes overtaking effortless, and every drive feels smooth, controlled, and engaging. The response is immediate, making every green light an opportunity.

Beyond straight-line speed, the VF 7’s low center of gravity, courtesy of its battery placement, enhances stability and handling. Its sport-tuned suspension maintains a balance between agility and ride comfort, ensuring drivers feel connected to the road without sacrificing smoothness for passengers.

Range and charging capabilities reinforce the VF 7’s practicality. Whether it’s the daily commute, school runs, or weekend getaways, its substantial electric range minimizes the need for frequent stops at charging stations. On full charge, the VF 7 Plus provides a maximum driving range of approximately 496 km while the VF 7 Base offers a maximum range of 430 km. Fast-charging technology reduces downtime, while home charging solutions offer convenience, making the transition to electric driving effortless.

An aesthetic that will make even your teen proud

The VF 7 is as much about aesthetic as performance. Designed by Pininfarina, its sharp, aerodynamic profile and aggressive stance defy the conventional family SUV aesthetic. It’s a car that will make your kid proudly say “It’s MY dad’s car” to their friends.

Inside, the driver-centric cabin merges sophistication with intuitive technology. A 15.6-inch touchscreen serves as the hub for navigation, entertainment, and smart controls, reducing clutter while enhancing accessibility. The minimalist approach doesn’t come at the expense of comfort. Premium materials, ergonomic seating, and ample space ensure both driver and passengers enjoy a refined experience. The spacious second row and generous cargo capacity accommodate everything from strollers to sports gear—ideal for road trips or everyday convenience.

The running cost is a bonus for electric vehicles. Owners attest that charging costs are just a third of their previous expenses on a gasoline vehicle.

For safety, both VF 7 variants boast multiple strategically-placed airbags and Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), ensuring the safety of every drive. They also all come equipped with essential safety features such as electronic stability control, traction control, hill-start assist, and anti-roll control.

Dads no longer need to choose between practicality and excitement. The VF 7 challenges the notion that family SUVs must be utilitarian at the expense of enjoyment. Whether weaving through gymkhana courses on the weekend or tackling weekday errands, this electric SUV delivers a dynamic driving experience without compromise.
