VinFast Launches VF MPV 7 in the Philippines

On May 6, 2026, VinFast officially introduced the VF MPV 7 electric vehicle in the Philippines, marking its third international market for this model. This launch enhances VinFast's product offerings in the country and underscores its dedication to promoting electric mobility, aiming to facilitate the transition to greener transportation options. In the Philippines, the VF MPV 7 is available at a price of PHP 1,518,000 for the version that includes the battery, while the battery subscription model is priced at PHP 1,239,000. This subscription option is designed to accommodate various usage patterns, with a monthly fee of PHP 2,700 for distances up to 2,000 km and PHP 4,150 for longer distances. Beginning May 5, 2026, customers can place orders for the VF MPV 7 at VinFast dealerships across the nation. An introductory promotional program will run until May 31, 2026, offering the first 1,000 customers one year of free battery subscription for usage up to 2,000 km per month. Additionally, those purchasing the vehicle with the battery included will receive a discount of PHP 27,200. The VF MPV 7 is designed as a versatile 7-seater electric MPV, catering to families looking for an upgrade from traditional MPVs. With the MPV segment representing nearly 20% of total automotive sales in the Philippines, this model aims to provide a balanced solution that combines spaciousness, performance, and competitive ownership costs, addressing key considerations for family vehicle buyers. Measuring 4,740 x 1,872 x 1,734 mm with a wheelbase of 2,840 mm, the VF MPV 7 offers ample interior space, suitable for multi-generational families. Its design adheres to the "golden ratio" typical of MPVs, with wheels positioned at the corners to maximize cabin space. The vehicle features modern design elements, including VinFast's signature V-shaped LED daytime running lights and 19-inch alloy wheels, contributing to its robust aesthetic. The interior is thoughtfully designed to enhance space and practicality, ensuring comfort for all passengers, including those in the third row. With a cargo capacity of up to 1,240 liters, the VF MPV 7 is versatile for both everyday use and long journeys. It is powered by an electric motor that delivers 150 kW and 280 Nm of torque, paired with a 60.13 kWh battery, providing a driving range of up to 450 km on a full charge according to NEDC standards. The vehicle's fast-charging capability allows the battery to charge from 10% to 70% in about 30 minutes, facilitating convenient use in various conditions. The VF MPV 7 also presents a significant advantage in monthly operating costs, as energy expenses are notably lower than those of gasoline-powered vehicles in the same category, thereby optimizing the total cost of ownership. Owners will enjoy free charging at V-Green stations throughout the Philippines until March 2029, along with a comprehensive 7-year or 160,000 km vehicle warranty and a 10-year or 200,000 km battery warranty, which are among the most competitive in the segment. Antonio Zara, CEO of VinFast Southeast Asia, highlighted that the launch of the VF MPV 7 in the Philippines represents a significant milestone in VinFast's global expansion strategy and reflects the company's long-term commitment to the market. He emphasized the vehicle's spacious interior, strong performance, optimized operating costs, and sustainable ownership value, suggesting that it will serve as a substantial upgrade for Filipino families and set a new standard in the MPV segment. In conjunction with the product launch, VinFast is enhancing its electric mobility ecosystem in the Philippines by expanding its dealership and aftersales network. The company is also introducing attractive policies, such as free charging, extended warranties, and flexible purchasing options, aimed at reducing barriers to electric vehicle adoption and improving the overall ownership experience.
