2024 VinFast VF 8 Trims Comparison

Which 2024 VF 8 trim does Edmunds recommend?

If you've decided the VinFast VF 8 is the right electric SUV for you, we recommend you save some money and get the Eco trim level. Upgrading to the VF 8 Plus won't deliver any must-have features (unless you absolutely need ventilated seats), and it posts a lower maximum driving range.

2024 VF 8 trim level differences

The 2024 VinFast VF 8 is an all-electric compact crossover SUV available in Eco and Plus trim levels. An 87.7-kWh battery powers a dual-motor all-wheel-drive powertrain. The base Eco model develops 349 horsepower and 369 lb-ft of torque, and VinFast says it can travel 264 miles on a full charge. The Plus bumps output to 402 hp and 457 lb-ft and carries an estimated range of 243 miles.

Eco
The base Eco trim level equips the VF 8 with:

  • 19-inch alloy wheels
  • Auto-dimming rearview mirror
  • Ambient interior lighting
  • Dual-zone automatic climate control
  • Synthetic leather upholstery
  • Heated front seats
  • Heated steering wheel
  • 15.6-inch touchscreen infotainment system
  • Eight-speaker sound system
  • Wireless smartphone charger
  • Head-up display (displays important information in your sight line on the windshield)
  • Parking sensors (alert you to obstacles that may not be visible in front of or behind the vehicle when parking)

The standard safety features list also includes:

  • Adaptive cruise control (maintains a driver-set distance between the VF 8 and the car in front)
  • Forward collision warning with automatic braking (warns you of an impending collision and applies the brakes in certain scenarios)
  • Lane centering system (makes minor steering corrections to help keep the vehicle centered in its lane)
  • Blind-spot warning with rear cross-traffic warning (alerts you if a vehicle is in your blind spot during a lane change or while in reverse)
  • Surround-view camera system (gives you a top-down view of the VF 8 and its surroundings in tight parking situations)

Plus
Upgrade to the VF 8 Plus if you want:

  • 20-inch alloy wheels
  • Hands-free power liftgate
  • Auto-dimming exterior mirrors
  • Panoramic sunroof
  • Upgraded upholstery
  • Heated and ventilated front and rear seats
  • Power-adjustable steering wheel
  • 10-speaker premium sound system

The VF 8 does not offer any options aside from exterior and interior color treatments. However, there is a VF Connect service package that is free of charge at press time but is likely to evolve into an added-cost subscription model in the future. For now, it includes:

  • Bluetooth connectivity
  • Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity
  • Navigation with live traffic and satellite view
  • Wi-Fi hotspot
  • In-vehicle content streaming capability
  • Digital virtual assistant
  • Smart home connectivity
  • Charging management
  • Remote vehicle locator (via VinFast app)
