The VinFast VF9 is Worth the Hype

When it comes to family-sized SUVs, there are plenty of vehicles on the market. But, when it comes to an EV that’s large enough for a full-size family with three usable rows, there are only a few, with the VinFast VF9 being one of the best. Even as a young company, VinFast has heard buyers’ needs and intends to give them a brilliant all-electric vehicle.

A New, Fresh Review of The VF9

In a recent review by YouTuber Kim Java, she asked herself whether or not the new VF9 was worth the hype for families. With three kids all in car seats, the VF9 is able to handle all that, plus strollers and gear in the rear.

A Cargo Space Rundown

One of Kim’s first tours to show viewers the new VF9 was to help show off the vast interior and cargo space. Behind the third-row seats when they’re upright, owners will have 7.5 cubic feet of cargo space. However, that doesn’t count the amount of space that’s under the floor that normally holds your tire inflator, charging cables, and can also stow bags and backpacks. Folding the third-row seats flat makes way for 33 cu.ft., which is perfect for larger dogs. Or, if you are traveling with items that need to be secured, two tracks run along the edge in the rear and have four tiedown anchors to tether objects so they don’t go all over the place.

A Word from Kim Java

Hopping into the second row, Kim said, “Let’s go ahead and get inside. The first thing I notice is how spacious the overall feeling is inside of here. You have so much room. Lots of room for your legs, so much headroom. And there it just has this illusion of so much space because of this huge, fixed glass roof. And even the third row has a glass roof above them, which is really nice.”

The Third Row Is Good for Kids and Adults

With the second-row captain’s chairs taken up by car seats and a third car seat in the rear, a friend of Kim’s decided to climb into the rear to see how much room was left for him. At 6’2″, he said the third row featured the most legroom he’d ever experienced in a three-row SUV.

VinFast Does Things Intelligently

The VF9 has lots of cubbies and areas to put things, especially for rear passengers. The rear doors feature a cupholder in the door pocket that’s also lined with a material that helps to suppress the sounds of cups or mugs moving around in the cupholder.

In Conclusion

So, what did Ms. Java think about the VF9 by the end of her review? She loved it. She found the 360-degree cameras helped a lot in tight parking lots and drive-thrus. With the number of cupholders and USB charging ports, the VF9 proves to be perfect for families to keep devices charged and drinks and snacks easily stored. While Kim mentioned that the VF9 is large, she said that the turning radius is excellent, there is great visibility, and “it really grows with you … the more I drive it around …”

VinFast Vehicles Have the Best Warranty

What else is there to say? Well, the VF9 has the best warranty of any car sold in America. With a 10-year, 125,000-mile bumper-to-bumper warranty along with a 10-year, unlimited-mile battery warranty, no other vehicle comes close. The VF8 and VF9 are both exclusively offered by Ewing VinFast of Plano.

VinFast VF 9 vs Hyundai IONIQ 9

The 2025 VinFast VF9 is one of the first three-row electric SUVs and also one of the least expensive when accounting for standard features and options that are generally costly extras on other vehicles. In our ongoing series of comparing the VF8 and VF9 to their main competitors, we have found that, even when up against the cream of the crop from Germany, Japan, Korea, and America, VinFast models hold up nicely… especially for a car company that’s only been around since 2017.

The First-Ever Hyundai Ioniq 9

This time, we’re taking a look at the newly released Hyundai Ioniq 9, the company’s first-ever three-row EV SUV. The Ioniq 9 shares some of its architecture with the Kia EV9, which has come up against the VF9 in a previous article. But, while there are some similarities between the Hyundai and the Kia, there are plenty of differences.

A Price That’ll Make You Take a Step Back

The 2026 Ioniq 9 has a starting price of $60,555 for the base, rear-wheel drive S trim. That jumps up to $79,090 for the top Calligraphy Design trim level. Amazingly, that trim level only comes in two colors that both cost $1,000 and has no options.

The VF9 Is Perfectly Priced

VinFast has priced the 2025 VF9 from $62,900 and is available in Eco and Plus. Both trim levels are standard with dual-motor all-wheel drive, Head-Up Display (HUD), a 123-kWh battery, and each has 402 horsepower with 457 lb-ft of torque. The Eco has an EPA-rated 330 miles of driving range, with the Plus offering 291 miles. Each trim also features vegan leather seating surfaces for ultimate luxury and comfort.

Inside The VF9 Is Where the Party Is

The interior of the VF9 features a 15.6-inch touchscreen infotainment display that offers control of everything in the vehicle and shows your speed, navigation, music, and the like. Thanks to the standard HUD, you don’t need a gauge cluster as every piece of pertinent information is displayed on the windshield, so you never have to take your eyes off the road.

The Plus Trim Offers Some Unique Features

If you decide to get the Plus trim level, the standard rear bench seat in the Eco becomes captain’s chairs with a center console for rear passengers and a built-in wireless charger. The captain’s chairs are 8-way power adjustable with heated, ventilated, and massaging seats. Rear occupants will also get an 8-inch screen on the center console to view content.

The Hyundai May Seem Less Expensive, But…

While at first glance you may think that the Hyundai is cheaper, but not so fast. As previously mentioned, the base Ioniq 9 S model appears to be a bargain, but it is rear-wheel drive-only, does not offer a Head-Up Display, and is quite slow with its 215 horsepower and 248 lb-ft of torque. It also only offers five extra miles of range at 335, so basically the same as the VF9. It isn’t until you step up to the SE model that costs $64,365, where you can get AWD, but still no HUD. The S and SE trims only offer cloth seats, which is kind of ridiculous for a so-called premium SUV that’s going to run you more than $60,000. You’ll have to spend $67,920 to get Hyundai’s H-Tex leather-like seats. And if you would like to have a Head-Up Display in your Ioniq 9, you’ll need to jump up and spend $76,590 for the second-highest Calligraphy trim level. That is absolutely ridiculous.

And You Get a Charger, And You Get a Charger

Whether you choose the Eco or Plus, the VinFast VF9 has all occupants covered in the device charging department. Standard on both trims is a total of six USB-A charge ports with one 90-watt USB-C port that can charge any laptop currently on the market. If you have the Plus, the second-row passengers will get two extra USB-A ports.

Sony RIDEVU Is the Gamechanger You’ve Been Waiting For

To keep everyone entertained, the VF9 is offered as standard with Sony RIDEVU, Sony Pictures Entertainment’s in-car service offering 2,000 shows and movies to watch from their archives. When parked, content can be viewed on the 15.6-inch display, or any device connected to the standard WiFi hotspot can access the app and watch movies or shows. Hyundai definitely doesn’t offer a service like that, let alone a free service.

Hyundai’s Warranty Just Can’t Keep Up

Don’t forget, VinFast vehicles come with the world’s best warranty with 10 years or 125,000 miles of bumper-to-bumper coverage, plus 10 years and unlimited miles of coverage for the battery system. The Ioniq 9 is covered by a 5-year, 60,000-mile standard warranty, with the battery being taken care of for 10 years or 100,000 miles, whichever comes first.

Don’t Settle for Good When You Can Have Great

In 2025, there is no reason to settle for a good product that costs a lot of money when you can have a great product that doesn’t break the bank in comparison. VinFast may be a young company trying to make a name for itself, but the VF9 comes out swinging and isn’t just another EV SUV. It’s special and unique and offers buyers a fresh take they deserve.

Why You Should Choose Ewing VinFast

Ewing VinFast of Plano offers the best prices on all new VinFast EVs and used cars. The sales staff is well educated on the vehicles and can help you pick out the right car for you.

VinFast VF9 Showcases the Need for Large, Comfortable EV SUVs

In a world where every buyer wants a three-row SUV for their family or just in case they end up having a family, VinFast is meeting the challenge by offering the VF9. There is a rising need for larger vehicles that can accommodate people in the third row and also be eco-friendly.

One of the Few 3-Row EV Options

There are very few electric options on the market that have a third row, and the VF9 is one of the first and also one of the most accessible with a starting MSRP of $62,900. This is thousands less than equivalent vehicles from Tesla, Mercedes-Benz, Rivian, BMW, Kia, and Hyundai.

What Comes Standard

Optioning your VF9 starts you off with deciding whether you want the Eco or the Plus model. But first, regardless of trim, the VF9 comes standard with all-wheel drive, something most other large EV SUVs can’t say. From there, each VF9 also has a dual-motor setup with 402 horsepower and 457 lb-ft of torque. Both trims come with a Head-Up Display as standard, something that, again, most other EVs don’t include.

Performance

Testing shows a consistent 6.7-seconds to get to 60 mph from a dead stop, which makes it reasonably quick. However, it will feel quicker when you’re behind the wheel because of the no-lag electric powertrain. Even though they share the same powertrain and all, the Eco actually gets 330 miles on a full charge while the Plus has 291 miles. Both are very competitive against more established brands.

Behind the third row, owners will find 7.5 cubic feet of space and 32.7 cubic feet when that row is folded flat. The front trunk, or frunk, can also hold an extra 3.5 cu.ft. of cargo, such as groceries, backpacks, and the like.

Device Charging

Even though the VF9 is still very new, reviewers have been saying that the third row is actually a nice place to be for kids and adults, with two USB-A charge ports, one for each seat. The second row is available as a bench in Eco models or with optional captain’s chairs in the Plus trim. This means you can choose to have either seven or eight seats in your car. If you choose the captain’s chairs, the second-row passengers will get a total of four USB-A ports to charge their devices. A 90-watt USB-C port is standard on all models in the second row. The Plus model also gets an 8-inch rear screen as standard.

Sony RIDEVU

Both trim levels also come standard with an in-car WiFi hotspot and Sony RIDEVU for free. Sony RIDEVU is a service provided by Sony Pictures Entertainment that offers users the ability watch 2,000 different shows and movies from their archive on any device connected to the vehicle’s WiFi or on the 15.6-inch infotainment touchscreen display when the VF9 is parked. This makes camping with kids a whole new experience.

The VF9 Has the Ability to Tow

Speaking of camping, if you decide to take your family around the great outdoors, you can also tow up to 4,000 lbs when properly equipped. This means you can bring along a trailer, boat, jet ski, or what have you on your family adventures.

VinFast Has a Warranty Like No Other

VinFast has the best warranty in all of the automotive industry with a standard 10-year, 125,000-mile bumper-to-bumper and 10-year, unlimited-mile battery warranties. There is zero reason to worry about your new car, and the Vietnamese EV carmaker wants to make it easy for customers to get into their first or their next electric vehicle. Ewing VinFast of Plano has the best models and pricing around.

The VF9 Proves How Quickly VinFast is Learning

To understand VinFast, we have to take a look back at some automotive history for a minute. There was a time when every car in America was made by an American company. Sure, we had some British cars over the years, and then after World War II more British, German, French, and Italian cars came over than ever before. But, by in large, there was no real competition for the American sedan or pickup truck.

The Oil Crisis Changed America

Then in 1973, the oil crisis hit the US in a big way, and the American V8 became useless. It was so hard to buy enough gasoline for these monster engines. And waiting in sometimes mile-long lines for fuel was insane. This is when people started adapting to understanding that small Japanese cars with tiny engines not only cost less to buy, but were really, really… really good on gas and would take them farther on a full tank. Don’t worry, we’re getting to VinFast.

Korean-made Cars Enter America

Then, a similar thing happened in the ‘90s with Korean cars in America. They were made fun of as cheap alternatives or knockoffs of Japanese cars. Now, however, in 2025, Korean carmakers have provided a real threat and challenge to Japanese brands.

Both Countries’ Cars Took a While to Get Traction

In both cases, it took roughly 10-20 years for Japanese and Korean car brands to really put up a big fight in America. And they had already been around for decades in their respective home countries.

From 2017 to 2025

The same thing is happening with VinFast and their VF8 and VF9, except it hasn’t taken them as long to adapt. The company itself was founded in 2017. Here in 2025, they’re already making a proper mark.

A Fresh Take on the VF9

A recent initial review of the VF9 by TopSpeed.com focuses on the journalist’s experience driving the first prototype VF8 models in Vietnam back in 2022. He talked about how they had very impressive manufacturing, but that the cars needed some time. This car, though, has him impressed and “intrigued” as he put it. With 291 miles of EPA-rated range, the VF9 competes against EVs from established Japanese and Korean car brands. And the fact that the VF9 is one of the first and only true 3-row EV SUVs makes it worthy of consideration.

A Warranty That Cares

More than anything, the warranty is what makes any VinFast a great buy. With 10 years or 125,000 miles of bumper-to-bumper coverage, that’s already one of the best in the business. But VinFast went and upped their game to a 10-year, unlimited-mile battery warranty that no other company is offering. This is a gamechanger. And with the strong lease pricing of $449 per month with ZERO dollars down? Come on, where can you go wrong?

A Really Good Smartphone App

One thing that VinFast has also worked hard on is their smartphone app. The native app allows you to connect with charging companies’ services so that you only need to have that one app with your private payment information. Most EVs sold today still need you to have an account with each and every charging company’s phone app and have your payment information stored there. So, you could potentially have five or more companies who have your sensitive data that could easily be stolen.

Sony RIDEVU Is Free

Once you add in that VinFast offers Sony RIDEVU for free, you’ll be hooked. If you don’t know, RIDEVU is Sony Pictures Entertainment’s movie and TV show service that allows you to watch 2,000 of their titles for free inside a VinFast VF8 or VF9. If you’re parked you can view content on the 15.6-inch infotainment display, or at any time on a smartphone, tablet, or laptop that’s connected to the car’s WiFi hotspot.

Ewing VinFast of Plano Can Help You

While VinFast is still evolving and getting better, their cars are already two of the best lease options on the market. Head on over to Ewing VinFast of Plano to experience what makes the VF8 and VF9 excellent options for your lifestyle.

VF9: Redefining Affordable Luxury EVs

VinFast hit a homerun with the VF9. While this is its first-ever three-row EV SUV, the Vietnamese EV company is quickly gaining respect in the market for doing something that no company outside of Tesla and Kia have been able to achieve, and at such a great price point. Starting from just $69,800, the large VinFast compares favorably to the Tesla Model X and the Kia EV9, especially when you look at what features the vehicle gets for the price.

A Fresh Review

In a recent review by YouTuber Roads Untraveled, reviewer Marcus Vandenberg found the VF9 to be a gorgeous design from design house Pininfarina. He seemed to enjoy its completely unique style and fresh feel.

An Interior to Fall in Love With, No Matter the Seat You’re In

When talking about the interior, Vandenberg was blown away by the fact that when equipped with captain’s chairs, second-row passengers have eight-way heated and ventilated power adjustable massaging seats with lumbar support. He went on to say that they were miles better than the not-so-massaging seats in the Genesis GV80. Second-row passengers also get a wireless charger plus USB-C ports. Even the third-row passengers aren’t left out in the cold as they get their own climate controls and USB-C ports, too.

A Really Cool Feature

An extremely unique feature Marcus noticed was that any time you move your seat or mirrors, the center-mounted 15.6-inch infotainment screen displays a message saying that the vehicle noticed you changed a setting and asks if you’d like to save that as an updated setting for your particular user profile. He said he’s never seen another vehicle so smart.

Not Just Beautiful, But a Fantastic Ride

Once he got to the driving impressions, Marcus appreciated that the vehicle was powerful. From a dead launch, he could get the wheels to spin a little like a sports car, and the brakes worked very well with zero complaints. “It rides well … overall road noise is great. And there have been moments where I’ve just kind of forgotten that I’m driving anything, really. It’s been quiet and comfortable.”

What Makes the VF9 Special

One of the reasons why customers are appreciating what VinFast has to offer is its focus on not confusing customers will half a dozen or more different trim levels that maybe add one or two extra features that can still be added as paid options on lower trim levels. The VF9 is available in two trim levels: Eco and Plus. Unlike most other EVs on the market, especially three-row SUVs, both trim levels come standard with dual motors, 123-kWh batteries, and all-wheel drive. Both also produce 402 horsepower and 457 lb-ft of torque. Eco models have an EPA-estimated range of 330 miles, and the Plus model is able to drive 291 miles.

A Warranty Like No Other

Undoubtedly the highlight of both the VinFast VF8 and VF9 is the standard 10-year, 125,000-mile bumper-to-bumper warranty with an industry leading 10-year, unlimited-mile battery warranty. That is simply unheard of, especially for modern vehicles. Ewing VinFast of Plano is excited to offer both models, and the salespeople will be happy to show you why VinFast is one of the best new purchases or leases you can make right now.
