On May 27th, immediately after VinFast officially began accepting pre-orders for the new generation VF 8, the D-SUV model quickly created a sensation among consumers. Many customers eagerly placed orders early to be among the first owners of this highly sought-after model. At some dealerships, the atmosphere was particularly lively as many customers wanted to see and touch the new generation VF 8 firsthand.
Explaining the popularity of the new VF 8, expert Nguyen Manh Thang pointed out the special highlight: the car's new electrical and electronic platform. According to him, this architecture is developed following the trend of software-controlled vehicles (SDV), with the CVC central computer acting as the "brain" processing and coordinating the car's systems. Notably, the integrated thermal management system (ITM), researched and developed by VinFast itself, will coordinate the cooling and heating of the battery, engine, electrical system, and cabin air conditioning.
"This intelligent thermal management system will help the engine work more efficiently. In addition, the new architectural platform, along with the central computer, reduces energy consumption, thereby increasing the vehicle's range," expert Thang emphasized.
Complementing these new technologies is a suspension system using Frequency Selective Dampers (FSD), with hydraulic valves that automatically adjust to the frequency of wheel vibrations. According to reviewer Pham Ngoc Tan (Duong 2 Chieu channel), this is an interesting detail on VinFast's D-SUV model, because the FSD system provides the ability to quickly dampen vibrations.
"This is a rare feature on the market, helping to eliminate wobbling on rough, uneven roads and keeping the vehicle stable and firm at high speeds," this reviewer commented.
In terms of performance, the VF 8 All New uses a 170 kW (228 horsepower) front-wheel drive electric motor with 330 Nm of torque, and comes with 3 driving modes. Reviewer Ngoc Tan assessed this level of performance as "more than sufficient" for daily commuting needs in the city.
In addition, safety is also a priority for VinFast with its integrated Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) package. Designed to achieve a 5-star ASEAN NCAP safety rating, the ADAS system of the new VF 8 boasts a full range of intelligent features such as highway driving assistance, adaptive cruise control, lane keeping assistance, and a 360-degree camera.
Besides its technological advantages, the new generation VF 8 also attracts significant attention with its listed price of 999 million VND, equivalent to gasoline cars in the lower segment. During the pre-order period, customers will receive an immediate discount of 51 million VND, and also benefit from an additional 10% support from the "Intense for a Green Future" program.
According to reviewer Dinh Nam, the discounted price of the VF 8 gives this model a clear competitive advantage and can "declare war" on sales even against best-selling models in the smaller C-segment SUV category.
"The current on-the-road price for the car is less than 850 million VND - a price comparable to a C-segment car - and you get a fully equipped, modern D-segment family car," this reviewer clarified his assessment.
With optimized performance thanks to a series of highly anticipated technologies and a price that will captivate early bird customers, the new generation VF 8 promises to continue to be a sensation as the early deposit promotion only runs for 8 golden days (May 27 - June 3, 2026).
