Quicker and More Fun to Drive
The Wind’s stronger motor changes the driving experience noticeably. With 201 bhp and 310 Nm, it pulls hard from low speeds and makes highway overtakes effortless. As a result, it reaches 100 km/h in 8.9 seconds, among the quickest in its class. Meanwhile, the extra power costs just 5 km of claimed range compared with the Earth.
Level 2 ADAS in Detail
The Wind gets a full suite of driver assistance features. For instance, adaptive cruise control keeps a safe distance on highways, while lane centering helps you stay in the middle of your lane. In addition, automatic lane change assist, rear cross-traffic alert and front and rear emergency braking add an extra layer of safety. A driver drowsiness warning also alerts you when you need a break.
A Head-Up Display Fills the Gap
The VF6 has no separate instrument cluster, so the Wind’s coloured head-up display matters a lot. It projects your speed and key information onto the windscreen, right in your line of sight. As a result, you don’t need to glance at the central screen while driving. For many buyers, this feature alone justifies choosing the Wind over the Earth.
Wind or Wind Infinity?
The VF6 Wind Infinity costs just Rs 50,000 more and adds an edge-to-edge panoramic glass roof. Otherwise, both share the same motor, range and features. So, pick the Wind Infinity only if you really want the glass roof. To compare all trims, visit the VinFast VF6 variants page.
What's good
-
Italian Design: One of the most stylish and premium-looking EV in the ₹18–22 lakh segment.
-
Safety & Warranty: A 5-star BNCAP rating combined with a 10-year warranty is a massive confidence booster.
-
Punchy Performance: The 201 PS motor makes it a genuinely fun car to drive on open roads.
What's not so good
-
Ergonomics: The lack of a physical instrument cluster and physical AC controls can be frustrating for traditional drivers.
-
Firm Ride: The suspension can feel a bit “thumpy” over broken city roads.
-
Rear Seating: The high floor pan means rear-seat passengers don’t get the best under-thigh support for long journeys.
