VinFast positions the Viper in the premium electric scooter segment, featuring a masculine and sporty design. The scooter is equipped with a BLDC in-hub electric motor, delivering a maximum power of 3,000 W, a top speed of 70 km/h, and acceleration from 0-50 km/h in 15 seconds. According to the company, equipping it with two LFP batteries provides the Viper with a range of up to 156 km on a single full charge under standard conditions.

The scooter uses a smartkey instead of a traditional mechanical lock, integrating a vehicle-finding feature in parking lots. A color TFT screen displays various operating parameters. Other features include telescopic front suspension and hydraulic dual shock absorbers with auxiliary oil reservoirs at the rear. The Viper is available in 5 color options.

The Feliz II electric scooter features a design and color options similar to the previously launched Feliz, with the key difference being its battery-swapping capability. It is equipped with a BLDC in-hub electric motor, delivering a maximum power of 3,000 W and a top speed of 70 km/h. According to the company, under standard conditions, the Feliz II has a range of 156 km on a single full charge with two batteries. Other features include: full LED lighting, regenerative braking technology for energy recovery, two operating modes, and IP67 water resistance standard.

Both models come with a 6-year warranty for the scooter and an 8-year warranty for the battery, a leading warranty period in Vietnam's electric scooter market.

Currently, VinFast is offering a range of incentives for customers purchasing its electric scooters, including: the "Buy a scooter for 0 dong" installment support program; a 6% price reduction, 100% support for registration fees, and free battery charging at V-Green stations nationwide. For these battery-swapping electric scooter models, the company offers 20 free swaps per month, equivalent to a travel distance of 800 km per month for users.

V-Green announced that the company has completed installing thousands of battery-swapping stations nationwide, aiming to reach 45,000 cabinets in Quarter I this year.
