Last updated August 4, 2026

About the 2024 VinFast VF 9
1st generation, first U.S. model year.
The VF 9 is VinFast’s flagship family EV: a large three-row SUV built for buyers who want electric power without giving up passenger space, road-trip comfort, or a premium feel. VinFast’s own messaging leans on size, Pininfarina design, human-centered packaging, and big-screen technology. In plain terms, the VF 9 is a roomy, upscale electric people-hauler that tries to blend full-size SUV practicality with quiet EV driving and a more polished cabin than the smaller VF 8.
The U.S. lineup centers on the upscale Plus, a three-row electric SUV with six- and seven-seat layouts. It pairs standard dual-motor AWD with a 123-kWh battery and 291 miles of EPA range. Standout cabin features include a 15.6-inch touchscreen, head-up display, panoramic glass roof, and massaging seats in the first two rows.
