EV Channels Review
The reviewer embarks on an ambitious 1400-mile road trip from Canada to the USA in a Vinfast VF8 Eco. The primary focus is evaluating the vehicle's performance, charging infrastructure, and overall road trip capability. Positively, the VF8 is praised for its comfort, with the reviewer noting their back didn't hurt after a long day of driving, and the driving aids are described as "fantastic" and "very good." However, the trip was marred by significant charging infrastructure issues, particularly with Tesla Magic Docks, which the reviewer found unreliable and difficult to use, causing unexpected delays. Despite these charging frustrations, the reviewer concludes that the Vinfast VF8 itself performed "beautifully" and was "awesome," with the main time sinks being traffic and non-functional chargers rather than the car's capabilities. The reviewer also notes the efficiency was not the best but acceptable for the trip.
