VinFast Philippines continues to expand its lineup of electric vehicles (EVs) in the country. After revealing the cute and budget-friendly VF 3 last month, the Vietnamese automaker has officially launched the VF 7.

Serving as the brand's new electric compact crossover, the VF 7 joins VinFast's lineup of EVs that include the VF 5, VF 9, and the previously mentioned VF 3. Starting with its size, the VF 7 measures 4545mm long, 1890mm wide, and 1635.75mm tall. This makes the VF 7 slightly bigger than the BYD Atto 3 compact crossover EV. It also has a 2850mm wheelbase and 190mm of ground clearance.

Style-wise, the VF 7 highlights the brand's design philosophy with its unmistakable front fascia that's dominated by a full-width LED daytime running light in the shape of a V. It also has gloss black body cladding, eye-catching LED headlights, a clamshell hood, stylish alloy wheels (19-inch and 20-inch set), tailgate spoiler, and full-width LED taillights.

The VF 7 is available with two powertrain options. First is the single electric motor VF 7S which makes 177 PS with 250 Nm of torque. It's paired with a 59.6 kWh battery pack which gives it a range of up to 375 km based on the WLTP cycle.
