VINFAST VF7 From VIETNAM Launching In India, But Should You Buy One | First Look | PowerDrift

Video Summary

The VF7 is approximately 4.5 meters long and will compete with the Hyundai Ioniq 5 in the international market and the BYD Seal. It's expected that deliveries in India will commence before Diwali. The front design features daytime running lights and a double V design. The headlight cluster appears old-fashioned; smaller LED clusters might have been a better choice.  The design is considered more fluidic compared to many squared-off modern vehicles. The design is reminiscent of older Renault models. The car has flush door handles with a heavy door feel, indicating quality. Apollo tires, an Indian brand, are being used. The rear section has vertically stacked indicators and a very Lexus-like design.  The boot has over 500 liters of space, it is observed. Rear seats have comfortable recline angles and a panoramic glass roof.  The large second-row area might have been a consideration, though there is a hump in the middle.  The car key has a nice design. Inside, the steering wheel leather is high-quality. However, some parts of the steering wheel are scratchy. Its steering wheel feels smaller than usual. The interior's simple controls are Tesla-esque. It has a head-up display. The central screen looks very clean. It can connect via Android or Apple CarPlay. There are a lot of AC vents for front passengers to choose from (five in total). The V7 does handle its weight well. Its electric performance is smooth and natural-feeling. The deliveries are going to begin really soon. Its acceleration increases gradually in sports mode. It has a higher-positioned height and will be a very safe car with Bharat-NCAP 5-star safety rating. The test drive impressions conclude, noting that this car is rather interesting.
