As an entry level EV, it's hard to beat the price. You're getting new car warranty and used car money for zero emissions.

Better to buy a used Honda or Toyota. At least you know you're getting reliability and easy maintenance at least then.

If you take into account the savings on fuel over time, it’s good value. In cities, electricity is cheaper than gas.

The initial price might be low, but how about repairs? Big brands have an established service network, but VinFast does not.

Getting a decent electric scooter and a public transport pass for the same money makes no sense. More practical for most city dwellers.

It's only good value if it lasts. If you are having quality issues, I wouldn't bet on a VF3 still running well in 5 years.

The real value is in being an early adopter. Early customers may receive favored upgrades or treatment as VinFast expands.

Don't forget about resale value. In a few years, who's going to want to buy a used VF3? The depreciation will be brutal.

On a pure transportation value, it’s not bad. If you want to enjoy driving a car, look elsewhere.

It depends on where you live, and the value proposition changes. It could make sense in Vietnam with government incentives. In other markets, not so much.
What is the build quality of the VF3 in comparison to other budget EVs?
23 January 2025 10:57
So far as I can tell, the quality of build on the VF3 is pretty much in line with the rest of the budget EVs. You get what you pay for, and at this price point, don’t expect luxury.

No way, man. I've seen videos of VF3s where parts are actually falling off. Even for budget cars, that's not normal. This is next-level bad.

It’s definitely rough around the edges, but all first-gen products from new companies are. Let them have time to work out the kinks.

The trouble is, vehicles shouldn't be allowed to be 'rough around the edges'. It's not a smartphone, it's something that can kill you if it fails.

The VF3 feels solid, compared to something like the Wuling Mini EV. It's not made of tin foil at least.

It’s not just about how solid it feels. It's about longevity. It's about safety. In those areas, though, the VF3 is seriously lacking.

I believe that people are forgetting that even big brands had quality issues when they first started making EVs. The VF3 isn’t bad but it’s not unique in being bad.
Is the VF3 really practical for daily use in cities such as Hanoi or Ho Chi Minh City?
23 January 2025 10:57
It's actually pretty great for short trips around the city. It’s easy to park, easy to get through traffic, and you won’t have to worry about gas prices.

Of course, as long as you don’t have to travel beyond the city. If that's the case, you're stuck with a glorified golf cart that can't even do highway speeds.

Perfect for delivery drivers or anyone who does a lot of short trips. It is a huge advantage in crowded cities because of its small size.
