VinFast MPV 7 bookings open in India: Launch date, token amount & more

Vietnamese EV maker VinFast has officially opened bookings for its upcoming electric MPV, the MPV 7, in India ahead of its market debut. The new electric MPV can be reserved starting today by paying a token amount of Rs 21,000, with the launch scheduled to take place on April 15 in Delhi. Here’s a quick look at VinFast’s plans in the near future.

VinFast MPV 7, Limo Green and more to follow

The MPV 7 will mark VinFast’s entry into India’s highly competitive family car space, with the model aimed primarily at private buyers. Alongside it, the company will also introduce the Limo Green, a version based on the same platform but meant for fleet and commercial applications.


In addition to its passenger vehicle plans, VinFast is preparing to begin its own electric cab service, GSM, in India over the coming months. The company is also planning to expand into the two-wheeler space, with electric scooters expected to arrive later this year. Interestingly, these will be sold through a separate retail network, indicating a distinct strategy for the high-volume two-wheeler segment.

The MPV 7 itself is a seven-seater electric model that has already been spotted testing on Indian roads. It is expected to take on rivals like the Kia Carens Clavis EV. Powertrain details haven’t been revealed yet but we can expect a front-mounted electric motor producing 201 hp and 280 Nm of torque, paired with a 60.13 kWh battery pack. The model is claimed to offer a driving range of around 450 km on the NEDC cycle.
