How far can it go on single charge? What is the real-world range?

The estimated How far can it go on single charge? What is the real-world range? for VinFast VF 8 Eco (2023) falls between 311–380 km, ranking it №455 out of 678 electric vehicles. Several conditions can influence this range:

  • Speed: The battery drains faster at higher speeds.
