To make ownership easier, Vinfast is offering a Rs 2 lakh incentive for customers exchanging a combustion-powered car with the VF MPV 7. The manufacturer has also committed to offering a 75 percent buyback value on the e-MPV, which will be calculated on the basis of the vehicle’s ex-showroom price. The carmaker has also announced a 3-year free maintenance, 7-year vehicle warranty and a 10-year battery warranty with the VF MPV 7.

Like the VF6 and VF7, customers can avail free charging for their VF MPV 7 at Vinfast’s V-Green EV charging stations until March 31, 2029.
