​​The VinFast VF8 Is a Primetime Player​

2025 VinFast VF8 Front View

2025 VinFast VF8 Front ViewThe VinFast VF8 is shining a light on the EV world. You don’t need to be a long-established automaker to make a great car—you can provide buyers with excellent service just by listening and paying attention to their wants and needs. This is how VinFast has become a respected EV brand so quickly.  

2025 VinFast VF8 Charging PortA New Review of the VinFast VF8 

In a recent test by Driving, the VF8 was lauded as a car that has evolved wonderfully since its first initial media test to current. The reviewer said that VinFast has made “a big improvement” in reference to the brushed aluminum and leather-like interior trim that make the car feel more luxurious and plush, as well as the higher quality door pockets that add extra space.  

VinFast VF8 TouchscreenAn Excellent App and Special Modes 

When talking about some of the positives that make the VF8 a quality buy for those looking at getting their first-ever EV (or their tenth), the reviewer highlighted the many modes that allow you to have great control of your VinFast and enjoy it in many different scenarios, plus the easy-to-use mobile app, saying, “Another positive is four special modes: Camp, Pet, Valet, and Wash. Camp mode allows you to use the infotainment system, plug into the USB and 12-volt outlets, and maintain a comfortable cabin temperature while sleeping in the vehicle when the car is parked, such as while charging. Pet mode keeps the cabin at a comfortable temperature and displays a message on the screen that your pet is safe. Valet mode restricts functions like climate control and infotainment. And Wash mode prepares the vehicle for going through a car wash. There’s also a good Vinfast app that shows vehicle status, manages charging, and provides updates, appointments, and invitations.”

The model tested was the base Eco trim level, which included vegan leather seats, 12-way driver and 10-way passenger adjustable power seats, and a 10-speaker sound system. These are all features normally reserved as options on higher trim levels for most brands. VinFast also gives drivers a standard Head-Up Display, something that (if available on another EV) is usually only on top-of-the-line trims.

The interior of the VF8 features a center-mounted 15.6-inch touchscreen infotainment system that controls everything in the car with ease. And with standard Sony RIDEVU, passengers can enjoy using the standard in-car WiFi to watch 2,000 different movies and TV shows offered by Sony Pictures Entertainment. Any device attached to the WiFi can watch. When the vehicle is in park, the infotainment screen can also be used to watch the same content.  

New VinFast VF8 Cargo SpaceThe Best Car Warranty 

The key detail that everyone loves the most about VinFast is the 10-year, 125,000-mile bumper-to-bumper warranty with a 10-year, unlimited-mile battery warranty. No other car company can match the level of warranty that VinFast offers—not even Tesla. This is why you should come down to Ewing VinFast of Plano to check out the VF8 and also the three-row all-electric VF9 that allows a family of six to experience luxury for a reasonable price.

How To Keep Your Car Cool In The Summer

VinFast VF8 Camping by the Lake

VinFast VF8 Side View by the LakeWe here at Ewing VinFast of Plano don’t have to tell you that summer’s almost here. With daily temperatures already hitting the high 70s and low 80s, it’s only a matter of time before the blistering heat is here to torture us. Luckily, you can easily keep cool in the depressing heat of the summer with the VF8 and VF9 thanks to some helpful tips and tricks, as well as some great features to keep you and your pets from any heat-related issues.  

New VinFast VF8 ChargingKeep Your Range Up 

First and foremost, always make sure to keep your battery between 20% and 80% of charge. Not only will that help keep the battery in your VinFast in tip-top shape, but it will also ensure that you aren’t worried about any range issues on hot days. Granted, EVs are actually very good in the heat and often provide excellent driving range.  

VinFast VF8 Interior Drive ModesPet Mode 

When your VinFast is parked, you can enable Pet Mode on the 15.6-inch infotainment screen if you are leaving your vehicle for a minute and have an animal in the vehicle. Not only will your car keep the interior at a constant, comfortable temperature for your pet(s) and your belongings, but it will also display a message on the touchscreen that lets people know that your loved one is safe, thanks to the vehicle being in Pet Mode.

If you intend to sit outside while waiting for some friends, take a private phone call, or just watch a movie or TV show on Sony RIDEVU, you can turn on Camp Mode in your VF8 or VF9. This way, you can charge your devices, use the exterior and interior lights, and keep the cabin cool (or warm if you’re into that sort of thing) while you hang out and do your thing.  

Reduce Heat in a Parked Car with a Solar Powered Exhaust FanA Solar-Powered Car Exhaust Fans 

If you are parking your car outside and need to leave it basking in the disappointing summer sun, you can always choose to buy some solar-powered car exhaust fans. One lesson our grandparents tried to teach us was to leave our windows cracked ever so slightly on a hot day to let some of the heat escape the car while it’s sitting still. But then you run the risk of inviting different critters and bugs that may be looking to beat the heat or create a nest. Instead, an exhaust fan hangs on your car window with it closed and creates a tight seal. There are little fans inside that run to try and suck hot air out and exhaust it from the exterior of the device that is pointed outside. These will run you about $20-$40 for anywhere from 1 to 3 fans and won’t use up any of your vehicle’s battery reserves since they are solar-powered.
