EV Channels Review
This video documents the second part of a 1400-mile road trip in a Vinfast VF8, covering the return journey from Annapolis, Maryland, to Montreal, Quebec. The reviewer highlights the VF8's performance as a "solid road tripper," noting its comfort and surprisingly good charging speeds, with no significant issues encountered throughout the extensive drive. Electrify America charging stations, despite their mixed reputation, were found to be reliable and improving. A notable challenge was the excessive tire pressure and heat warning, requiring a stop to adjust tire pressure, with the TPMS system accurately displaying high tire temperatures. The reviewer also experienced significant battery drain when driving through mountainous terrain, necessitating more frequent charging stops than initially anticipated. Despite these minor hurdles and the vehicle's efficiency not being class-leading, the overall verdict is highly positive, emphasizing the VF8's capability for long-distance EV travel and praising the robust charging infrastructure in the US East Coast.
