The VF 6 is offered in two trims, Eco and Plus, and is priced at P1,419,000 for the ECO and P1,609,000 for the PLUS. Deliveries for the Eco variant are scheduled to begin in May 2025.
VinFast also announced a free public charging program through V-GREEN charging stations, valid until May 1, 2027. V-GREEN, a partner company, plans to install 15,000 charging ports nationwide by the end of 2025.
VinFast offers a buyback program of up to 90% of the vehicle’s original value to encourage more consumers to switch to EVs. The company is also expanding its sales and service network, collaborating with Motech and JIGA to reach 100 authorized service centers by the end of the year.
Developed with Italian design studio Torino Design, the VF 6 features a modern design and compact footprint: 4,241 mm in length, 1,834 mm in width, and 1,580 mm in height, with a 2,730 mm wheelbase. The EV layout enables interior space on par with C-segment gasoline vehicles.
Performance varies by trim. The VF 6 Eco produces up to 210 hp and 250 Nm of torque, while the Plus trim increases torque to 310 Nm. The vehicle offers a range of up to 480 km per charge (NEDC standard), and includes 20 advanced driver-assistance system (ADAS) features and eight airbags.
The VF 6 includes a 7-year or 160,000-kilometer warranty, one of the most competitive in its segment.
VinFast also confirmed partnerships with EastWest Bank and BDO to develop financial solutions for EV buyers and support the brand’s long-term green mobility goals in the country.
The VF 6 joins VinFast’s existing Philippine lineup, which includes the VF 3, VF 5, VF 7, and VF 9. Test drives and vehicle displays are available at MIAS 2025, which features over 120 brands and more than 30 automotive manufacturers for its 20th anniversary.
Pham Sanh Chau, CEO of VinFast Asia, stated, “The VF 6 brings smart, practical, and affordable electric mobility to Filipino families. We’re confident it will find the same success here as it has in Vietnam and Europe.”
Nguyen Thanh Duong, CEO of V-GREEN, added, “Through this partnership, we aim to build a strong EV infrastructure that boosts public confidence and supports the shift to sustainable transport.”
