Are you in the market for a 2025 VinFast VF8? Then you’re in luck. We’ll be taking a look at the two trims to see which one will suit your lifestyle more. Here are some VinFast VF8 trims comparisons for 2025 to help make sure you get the right one for you.
Key takeaways
- Despite having the same engine, the Plus’ range is a bit lower than the Eco due to its more powerful engine.
- The Plus comes with some great features such as a panoramic sunroof and heated, and cooled, seats for the second row. The lineup overall comes with some great features, making sure that you can't go wrong with either option.
- If you make a stop, and your battery is getting low, you can get most of your charge back in just 30 minutes. This makes it so that you don’t have to worry about running out of juice on the way to your destination.
Which trim has a lower price: Eco
For the VF8 lineup, the Eco is the starting trim. This comes in at a price of $46,000, compared to the Plus’ $51,800 price tag. This is thanks to the Plus coming with some better features.
The features that you can find on the Plus are leather seats that help bring more comfort and sophistication. The Plus also comes with a panoramic glass roof as well as cooled and heated features for the rear seat.
No matter which trim you get, you can look for a 15.6-inch infotainment screen that can also show your vehicle's information. While it doesn’t have a dedicated cluster, it does come with a standard head-up display, showing you everything you need right in front of you.
Which trim has more range: Eco
With a name such as “Eco” it shouldn’t be a surprise that this one has more range. While this is true, that doesn’t mean that the Plus is bad in the range department. The range of the Eco is 256 miles, while the Plus’s range is slightly less at 235 miles as noted by Car and Driver.
Despite having the same 87.7 kWh battery, the Plus runs just a bit hotter at 402 horsepower, compared to the Eco’s 349.
Being that the battery is the same size, they charge at the same rate. When you’re getting low, you can go from 10% to 70% in just 31 minutes. This makes it possible to have lunch, or make a stop at the store and be ready to hit the road again when you get in.
Which VF8 is faster: Plus
When looking at the two, the Plus is faster thanks to its hotter engine. While it's not meant to be a racecar, it is an electric vehicle, and sometimes the temptation to launch comes around. When at the track, you can go 0-60 in just 5 seconds.
This makes it a fairly speedy vehicle, especially for its size. When you're wanting to do a quarter mile, you can do that in under 15.0-seconds. Quick enough to give you an adrenaline hit, but not expensive enough to make it an unreasonable purchase.
Which VF8 trim is right for me?
The best trim depends on what you want. If you’re looking for something with the most range, then the Eco will be the one for you. If you're wanting a bit more luxury, the Plus can’t be beat, and for its price, it isn't a bad pick.
