Although he has had a driver's license for nearly three years, this is the first time Mr. Bui The Dat (Hanoi) has directly driven an electric car. This user and his group of friends were present at the event from the morning of the first day to experience a series of in-depth tests with the VinFast VF 9 electric car - the top SUV of the Vietnamese brand.
Designed so that visitors can feel the most realistic performance and safety technologies on the vehicle, the VF 9 test drive route is divided into many parts, from the zigzag (slalom) route, the rough road, to the acceleration - noise test, the slippery road. Customers can also experience regenerative brake features and ADAS technologies on VF 9. This route quickly received positive feedback from attendees.
The first feeling is calmness. No more engine noise, no vibration, no gusts only the sound of rain and the sound of wheels rolling on the road. When accelerated slightly, the 9-speed VF immediately sped away with great power, but it was still very smooth. The decisive acceleration of the car's electric motor made us feel like we were on a plane preparing to take off," Mr. Dat happily recounted his experience with the VF 9.
The test track is only a few hundred meters long but is fully arranged with different obstacles and terrain, so the test participants can fully feel the steadyness and solidity of the VF 9. The sturdy chassis system, accurate feedback steering wheel, and good traction ability even when the pitch is slippery due to rain make him feel completely assured.
Mr. Hoang Phuc Thanh Vinh (Hanoi), another member of the group, shared the same opinion. What impressed me most about the VF 9 is the very wide visibility, sitting high so I can observe comfortably. I feel very confident driving, Vinh commented. In narrow corners, the car operates stably and there is almost no phenomenon of convection commonly seen in large SUVs.
When the vehicle passed through the rough road, Mr. Vinh said he almost could not see any shock thanks to the air suspension system. Before, I still thought that electric cars were only suitable for the city, but only after running VF 9 did I find the cars strong and solid enough to go far, even on mountain passes and hills. When I have the conditions, I will buy a VF 9", he shared.
Unlike young people, Mr. Dang Ngoc Duc, a businessman in Hanoi, is more concerned about the economic efficiency of the car. Currently owning a CX-5, Mr. Duc packed the rain to learn about the VF 9 model with the desire to have a spacious, comfortable but cost-effective vehicle, reliable in operation and good soundproofing.
"I am planning to return to my hometown in Bac Giang to open a business office. However, going to Hanoi is inevitable, so you want a car that will be comfortable for the whole family and also save on fuel. VF 9 is truly an excellent candidate, Mr. Duc shared.
According to Mr. Duc, he currently spends about 7 million VND on gas/month. If switching to VF 9, with free charging, the fuel cost will be zero. Maintenance and repair of electric vehicles are also easier and cheaper. Electric vehicles do not need to replace engine oil periodically like traditional gasoline and diesel vehicles.
The customer also positively reviews the interior. With high-end interior materials, a central entertainment screen of up to 15.6-inch along with a smooth electric motor, the VF 9 brings a different experience right from the first moment. These things make the VF 9 not just a car, but a luxurious and private technology space.
The VF 9 Test Driving Experience event shows the growing attraction of the VinFast electric car line in general and VF 9 in particular. Not only conquering young people with a powerful driving experience, advanced technology and high safety, VinFast's top SUV model also proves its outstanding economic advantage, becoming a valuable choice for customers aiming for sustainability and class in travel.
