VinFast Launches All-New VF8 in the Philippines, Priced from ₱1.548 Million

VinFast officially launched the all-new VF8 in the Philippines, introducing an upgraded all-electric D-segment SUV designed to deliver improved comfort, technology, and driving performance for Filipino families. The five-seater electric vehicle arrives with comprehensive enhancements to its exterior design, chassis, electrical and electronic architecture, and vehicle systems, reinforcing VinFast’s growing premium EV lineup. The Philippines also becomes the first international market to launch the all-new VF8, highlighting the country’s importance in the company’s global product expansion. Priced at ₱1,548,000 with a battery subscription or ₱1,799,000 with the battery included, the new model is expected to begin customer deliveries in November 2026.

Following VinFast’s “Tech Fluid” design philosophy, the all-new VF8 features a modern and dynamic exterior while maintaining the practicality expected of a family SUV. It measures 4,701 mm long, 1,872 mm wide, and 1,670 mm high, with a 2,840 mm wheelbase, 170 mm ground clearance, and 19-inch wheels. Inside, the cabin adopts an intuitive layout with a 12.9-inch central infotainment display that integrates the vehicle’s main functions, complemented by a driver information display behind the steering wheel. A steering-column-mounted gear selector further simplifies operation and improves everyday convenience. These upgrades aim to provide occupants with a more comfortable and user-friendly driving experience.

Powering the all-new VF8 is an electric motor producing a maximum output of 170 kW and 330 Nm of torque, delivered through a front-wheel-drive configuration. Drivers can choose among Eco, Normal, and Sport driving modes to suit different road conditions and driving preferences. Its 60.13 kWh battery provides a claimed driving range of up to 480 kilometers under the NEDC standard, while super-fast charging capability allows the battery to charge from 10% to 70% in under 30 minutes. VinFast also offers two ownership options: purchasing the vehicle with the battery included or choosing a battery subscription based on the customer’s needs and financial plans. The vehicle comes with a seven-year or 160,000-kilometer warranty, while the high-voltage battery is covered by a 10-year or 200,000-kilometer warranty, whichever comes first.

According to Antonio “Toti” Zara III, CEO of VinFast Philippines, the launch marks another milestone in the company’s long-term commitment to the Philippine market and its vision for electric mobility. As the brand expands its electric vehicle lineup, it is also developing its dealership network, aftersales services, and charging infrastructure with support from V-Green and local partners. By combining its latest electric vehicles with expanded ownership support, VinFast aims to make the transition to electric mobility more convenient and accessible for Filipino motorists. With its updated design, practical five-seat configuration, 480-kilometer claimed range, and flexible battery ownership options, the all-new VF 8 strengthens the brand’s position in the country’s growing electric SUV segment.
