Inside, VF 6 features a driver-oriented 12.9-inch touchscreen, integrating smart control and entertainment functions. A D-cut steering wheel with multifunction controls and power-adjustable driver seats, together with 18 customizable driving mode combinations enhance comfort and flexibility for users.

IP67-rated high voltage components combining with strengthened chassis and state-of-the-art functional safety concept design provide reliable protection for all occupants.

In terms of after-sales, the VF 6 is backed by one of the best warranty policies in its segment, offering a vehicle warranty of 7 years or 160,000 km (whichever comes first) and an unlimited-mileage battery warranty for 8 years.

Mr. Pham Sanh Chau, CEO of VinFast Asia, shared: “The VF 6 is the next crucial addition to VinFast’s EV ecosystem in Indonesia. By continuously expanding our all-electric product range, we reaffirm our mission to make electric vehicles accessible to everyone. This commitment is also reflected in our comprehensive green mobility ecosystem, particularly the rapidly growing VinFast charging network, ensuring that all customers can easily access, own, and use EVs—contributing to the global electric mobility revolution.”

To bring peace of mind to customers through a demonstration of long-term commitment and confidence in product quality, VinFast is offering one of the most attractive new vehicle exchange and buyback policies on the Indonesian market, applicable to all models, including the VF 3, VF 5, VF e34, and VF 6. After VinFast’s sales/technical teams inspect, evaluate, and confirm eligibility, VinFast will either offer a new vehicle exchange (for customers looking to upgrade) or buy back the vehicle. VinFast’s buyback and trade-in rates are up to 90% after 6 months, 86% after 1 year, 78% after 2 years, and 70% after 3 years.

Customers can explore VF 6 and other VinFast electric vehicles at 21 official showrooms across Jakarta, Bandung, Surabaya, Bali, and more. Additionally, VinFast has recently partnered with strategic dealer Amarta, which plans to open 11 new stores in 2025 and expand to 22 stores by 2027. In addition, owners can access a nationwide network of VinFast-authorized service centers operated by Otoklix and BOS, ensuring maximum convenience throughout vehicle ownership. VinFast aims to establish 500 authorized service workshops throughout Indonesia this year.

Since entering Indonesia just one year ago, VinFast has made remarkable strides by collaborating with leading dealership and service partners, major banks, and launching four electric models - VF 3, VF 5, VF 6, and VF e34, combined with its attractive sales policies, while continuously expanding its sales and service network. The VinFast electric vehicle assembly plant in Subang is expected to commence operations in 2025.

Simultaneously, VinFast is building a comprehensive green mobility ecosystem through strategic partnerships with electric taxi company GSM and global charging network developer V-GREEN. VinFast car owners can currently charge for free at charging stations operated by V-GREEN. The Company aims to develop 30,000 VinFast charging ports in Indonesia by the end of 2025, ensuring a seamless and worry-free transition to electric mobility for consumers while contributing to the region’s green transition efforts.
