Does the VF3 offer good value for the money or is there more for the money?

VinFast VF3 is an affordable electric vehicle, but will it give you good value for your money? Opinions are divided. It offers low price, but the quality, performance and features compromises are too much, some say. And then you have long term value: depreciation, maintenance costs, possibly even battery replacement. Both electric and conventional vehicles are then compared to both new and used alternatives in the same price range. Are budget conscious buyers getting a smart financial choice in the VF3 or is there a better overall value to be had elsewhere? What does total cost of ownership look like compared with similarly priced used cars or slightly more expensive new vehicles?
