Vietnamese electric vehicle brand VinFast has introduced a new ‘Value Assured’ programme for its VF6 and VF7 electric SUVs in India. The initiative is aimed at buyers who are planning to move from petrol or diesel vehicles to an EV, with exchange benefits of up to Rs 1.30 lakh being offered on both models.
Assured Resale Value and Loyalty Benefits
As part of the programme, customers can trade in their existing internal combustion vehicle and receive financial support while upgrading to either SUV. Along with the exchange bonus, the company is also promising an assured resale value of up to 75 percent of the ex-showroom price. These company-backed buyback plans are available for ownership periods ranging from two to five years, which could help reduce uncertainty around long-term ownership costs.
VinFast is also offering a 3 percent loyalty benefit under this scheme. While exact terms may depend on location and dealership, the overall package appears designed to address one of the biggest concerns among EV buyers in India — resale value.
