The 2025 VinFast VF 8 (formerly 2025 VinFast VF8) is a battery-electric mid-size crossover manufactured and marketed by Vingroup’s VinFast.

The instrument cluster features a two-tone aesthetic highlighted by a large multimedia system touchscreen along with avant-garde-designed drive mode switches in the center tunnel. The traditional instrument cluster has been replaced by a central multimedia display and a head-up display projected onto the windshield. The 2025 VF8 is sold only as a two-row, five-seat SUV, and passenger space in both rows is plentiful,  expected an interior with the same level of luxury as the BMW iX.

Just like in Tesla, the instruments are focused on a central display and head-up display. The interior has a somewhat traditional style and relies heavily on plastic; The large sunroof helps illuminate the comfortable cabin. The VinFast VF8 also uses a tailgate for extra cargo space in case you reach the maximum capacity of the rear cargo area. The massive 15.6-inch display mounted on the dashboard serves as an infotainment touchscreen as well as a digital instrument display, a design similar to that on the Tesla Model Y. The head-up display also projects critical information onto the windshield in front of the driver. Thus, those who do not like the idea of looking to the right to check the speed will be able to access this information directly.

A voice assistant is included, allowing users to interact with the system without touching the screen. There are other features to help pass the time while charging, like built-in video games and an e-commerce service embedded in the software. We want to keep tech-obsessed buyers away once they get a chance to use the VinFast infotainment interface. The system is slow and unintuitive, which will disappoint anyone expecting similar capability on a modern smartphone.
