Shifting its focus from electric SUVs, VinFast aimed to capture the 7-Seater Electric MPV segment in India with VF MPV 7. The company launched VF MPV 7 on April 15th, 2026 and it went on sale against BYD’s eMax 7. The launch price of VinFast VF MPV 7 was Rs 24.49 lakh in April 2026 and has now got a major price cut.
📌 The Core Development
Fast forwarding to November 2026, VinFast VF MPV 7 now costs just Rs 20.39 lakh (Ex-sh). This is a direct result of a price cut VinFast has introduced for VF MPV 7 in India. This price cut is Rs 4.1 lakh on the Ex-sh price and the same also reflects on VinFast’s official website.
India has always been a price sensitive market and the popular Vietnamese electric mobility solutions provider, VinFast, seems to know this perfectly. If we look at the company’s VF 6 and VF 7 offerings, they were priced quite well and have been selling in decent numbers in the country too.
🔍 Background & Sector Context
When VinFast launched VF MPV 7 in the country, it was priced at Rs 24.49 lakh (Ex-sh) with a tagline – One India, One Price. However, the price may have caused a slump in VF MPV 7 sales and VinFast seems to have realised it and gave it a price cut of Rs 4.1 lakh. This price cut is significant enough to bring VF MPV 7 back in the wishlist of many prospective buyers.
For context, similar 7-seater electric vehicles like Mahindra XEV 9S are currently priced from Rs 20.65 lakh and MG Tomahawk EV starts from Rs 19.49 lakh, both prices Ex-sh. BYD eMax 7, on the other hand, is a direct import and it is priced from Rs 27.9 lakh (Ex-sh).
📊 Industry & Real-World Impact
The price cut comes as VF MPV 7 sales remain modest compared with VinFast’s other offerings. During H1 FY2027 (April–September 2026), the electric MPV recorded 520 units, accounting for just 3.91% of VinFast’s total India sales of 13,307 units. The commercial-focused Limo Green led with 7,192 units and a 54.05% share, followed by the VF7 with 3,519 units and VF6 with 2,076 units. The Rs 4.1 lakh reduction could help the VF MPV 7 attract more private buyers and increase its contribution to the company’s sales.
