The upcoming 2026 VinFast VF8 Plus AWD is expected to be a refined, more efficient, and more premium evolution of the VF8 series. It will continue using an 87.7 kWh lithium-ion battery paired with dual electric motors, producing an estimated 420 hp and 650 Nm torque. Range improvements may push it to nearly 300 miles (480 km). The SUV is expected to feature upgraded ADAS 2.0, a more advanced infotainment system, and a quieter, better-insulated cabin. Enhanced fast-charging, improved suspension tuning, and refined aerodynamics should make the 2026 VF8 Plus AWD a smoother, safer, and more technologically advanced electric SUV.
