Ok👍
Shocking simply Shocking 😢cb media jumps the shark 🦈 those Vin fast panties look pretty on you 😳
Never thought I’d see you do a commercial for a car manufacturer on your own channel.
how do you know lad?
@@joshlouissr.5847 Negative people like him just seem to think they know mate😂
I love the V truck ! I live in Bangkok and this would be awesome to have! Great video mate 😎👌
😂😂😂 you avoided to mention TESLA🙃 hope they paid you well.
You can tell he was reading from a script somewhat. ohh. well, I guess a man's gotta eat right.
Tesla has the same problem as the Germans. The import tax makes them unaffordable to most people. 200 grand usd for a model 3 or model y is just dumb.
I would love the VF3 looks perfect to drive in old european cities.
You go Chad, get that sponsorship money. Just dump the money back into fun videos please!
Sorry for interupting but the VF5 is 134HP for Plus version. In VN doesn't have eco version yet but i think the one you see in BIMS is plus version and the spec is 134HP and 135Nm or 99ftlb
I wish Vinfast luck, hopefully they do better in Thailand and they did in America. I know you're pushing their product but I strongly disagree about the Chinese electric vehicles. The Chinese electric vehicles are far superior to anything that they're putting out and at a better price point. I understand you're a shill for the Vietnamese company during this video but facts are facts. I'll still look forward to some of your future real videos, keep up the good work.
If you open up a Vinfast car and open up a car from a Chinese company such as BYD and compare the components, you will see the difference. Vinfast's components are mainly supplied from leading manufacturers in the field of auto parts from the US, Germany, Japan, and Korea. like ZF, Bosch... Only experienced people can judge whether a car is good or bad, but most ordinary consumers judge mainly through emotions. For an ordinary person, a car made in Vietnam is never better or equal to a car made in Germany. But for knowledgeable people, they are never influenced by things other than the things assembled on this car.
In terms of consumers, I think you're right, Chinese cars are always beautiful in terms of interior and design with no limits including copying. However, VF is more about pragmatism, the quality of components must be licensed by Europe and America, they want to make a good product instead of overproducing to the point of excess and saturation like China is doing. I don't criticize Chinese products, because they have more domestic market than any other country
@@ExpressPC. I hope your correct for their sake. Question: do you and 518p2 both work for the same PR firm?
I was here last Monday. There was definitely a lot of beautiful and crazy cars and trucks to see. It was a great way to get out of the heat for a few hours. Thanks for the great video.
It's just a matter of personal preference. In fact, I have driven a VF8 Plus for about one month and I love it. The EV has been great so far after over 600 miles (about 1,000Km). It has met all my goals including its driving range on a single charge, safety features and my budget. With a 65% battery from 80% down to 15%, my VF8 Plus model on a single charge can travel about 170 miles (roughly 275Km) at the speed of 70 miles/hours during the normal weather condition in California. It took about 43 minutes to charge the EV from 10% to 80% and 56 minutes to charge from 14% to 90% (after 80% it takes a little longer time to charge possibly because of saturation) at a super charging 360 kWh station. Packed with many high-tech features including HUD (Head-Up Display), 360 camera, ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems), heated and cooled seats, blind spot warning, voice activation, the VF8 Plus is one of the best cars I have ever had since my last hybrid. Probably, Vinfast ADAS is the feature I love most. When on freeway if you want to use Vinfast ADAS, just hit the little ADAS button to your right, on the steering wheel once the VF8 reaches the speed you want, for example 65 miles/hour, and the ADAS sign in green and blue color with the desired speed will show up on HUD (Head-Up Display), and the EV will take over the drive. All you do now is just sit relax enjoy behind the steering wheel and touch the wheel when asked. If you want to adjust the ADAS speed, just hit the up (+) or down (-) button right above and below the RES (Resume) button. The EV will automatically follow the same speed or stop as the car in front of you, does. If there's no car in front of you, the EV will speed up by itself to reach the speed you have set while keeping the EV between the lanes. Remember whenever you step on the brake, ADAS will no longer work, and notice that the ADAS sign on HUD will become gray. Just hit the RES (Resume) button on the steering wheel to resume ADAS, and the ADAS sign on HUD will be again in green and blue color. As far as I know, Vinfast is the one and only EV maker that represents the Southeast Asian region to join CES 2024 in Las Vegas last January.
VF looks like it has a great vehicle range and makes perfect sense to own one on Thailand's busy roads. The EV3 is the one for me with a set of TE37's, some mud tyres and a couple of light bars just for good looks
As long as they can get quality on par with their competition, the VF WILD looks cool and has some neat and unique features. I'm a fan. As Always May God Bless you and yours! 😇
Nice commercial.
Right at the start it says "Paid Promotion" when you see that and the video is no longer of interest to you, leave. But don't come to the comments and leave b!itchy snide comments like that. The guys entitled to make a living.
Maybe he thinks CZcamsrs should be charity organisations that spend countless hours filming and editing for his entertainment?
@@tomthebadasscatis a dbag. I'm just guessing haha
the way you explain it that you need different cars for different needs just like with shoes makes perfect sense to me and the VF Wild looks 100 times better than the Tesla Cybertruck
Glad to see more EV's in Thailand. We commute 3.5 hours one way weekly to Bangkok from Central Chanthaburi in our MG4 EV. It has 200HP, huge long range 60KWH battery, 360 degree camera sensors Apple car play seems to have all the bells and whistles of a Tesla minus the self driving but there is a lot of AI attached to the lane assist and cruise control modes. We switched over from a Fortuner and its insane how cheap the electricity costs per mile. Round trip to Bangkok used to be a little over one full tank of fuel. Now we get to Bangkok with 30% left in our battery and the cost to charge back to 100% is about 160 BHT. We plug in at home in each town so never stop at a fuel or charge station unless we want to drop off and come back home in that case its a 20 minute charge at a fast charger mid point. 200 HP electric car is the perfect size horse power in my opinion. The turbo diesel general vehicles on the highway can not keep up with us if we want to go fast. Also you get instant full torque when you move the accelerator peddle either from a dead start or any speed. If you decide to make a pass you push the peddle down and your gone. Oh the MG4 has rear wheel drive and motor in front under the hood battery under the floor and sport mode.
Thank you for supporting VF, we bring products that meet European and American standards for Thai consumers to evaluate and choose fairly. love Thailand from VN
These cars look amazing, but I hope that the engineering can catch up to the looks.
So far with their other cars it hasn't.
công nghệ cũa vf tràn ngập và đã phủ sóng đầy đường ở việt nam và nhiều nước châu âu
Vinfast cooperates mainly with BMW, all components are refined and developed by European and Vietnamese engineers. Please test drive it, I believe you cannot help but be surprised
@@ExpressPC. That's not what reviews of the vf8 are showing, could say surprising how bad it was.
I'm not a huge truck guy, but sometimes one has to cart broken motorcycles or car parts around. I'd rock a VF Wild for something like that.
Just get a little one
That VF9 im likin it bro👏👏 id buy the VF9 and the VF wild
I do like the looks of the Vinfast 9. A quality 7 seat SUV would sell very well in the states. But they better have their act together with their software because they're only going to get one shot at it.
Hi Chris, many thanks for your interesting vids. I’m out in October and wondering if there is anywhere to see the long tail boat racing. Any help or ideas appreciated. Cheers
These cars look very Renault-y. I wouldn't be surprised if VinFast used (a) designer(s) that used to/are working with/for Renault. The interior on the pickup is very Citroën/DS-esque.
I’m wondering what American automakers have partnered with them to rebrand and bring these to the states….also wondering crash testing specs?
It's like a chunky rivian. i really like the styling. Alot of great points you made about the differnt cars for different applications, i completely agree. The biggest issue i have with electric vehicles is mostly pricetag.
GR8 vid. 6:37 yellow VF 3: would love to see a test drive on a bumpy paved or dirt road...may be a bit "hoppy". Jumpy happens on the very short wheel base vehicles w a tall profile. Maybe the low battery weight helps the physics.
Hey Chad do you know if they will be making those trucks IN Thailand? So we can maybe avoid that tax...sorry if you mentioned it in the video and I missed it
I heard that a lot of brands of the EV car companys will establish their factorys here in Thailand but not sure which one.
Went there to see cool custom and tuned cars. What I got was a sales event lol. There were a few super cars in another hall. But just 10-15.
Vinfast have been buying property and ex GM Australia ex engine plants and experimenter test track in recent years, and this week announced everything is for sale
Can you provide a source for this info, please? I've just looked it up on Google numerous times, with different wording each search, and all I can find is a bunch of stuff about them buying the properties. Nothing about them selling them.
"this week announced everything is for sale" Seems like the opposite happened. They only recently bought it less than 2 years ago. They are still in the middle of implementing operations. I don't think you understand how long such things take. Your statement does not make sense.
Maverick during the week for me, big lifted f150 with 5.0 yote on the weekend
Nice to see the Austin Allegro steering wheel is making a comeback. Nice looking truck,
Currently electronic cars dont have enough range yet. Once they can charge 1000miles in 30 mins its hard to beat a 4cyl
They have plenty if you live in a city, never leave, and live in a house where you charge it. Pretty limiting but works for some people
the most beautiful pickup truck I have ever seen, it is suitable for a modern, strong, sophisticated and luxurious man, you can wear a suit to ride this car or a t-shirt set with shorts and a shirt. The hat is also very suitable, the capacity of this car is very large, I am curious about its mobility. Thank you for your work on this product. love from Vietnam❤
Went to Da Nang last weekend and was amazed how many Vinfast EVs there were. When available in Thailand, I'm sure theybwill do well.
Thank you for supporting VF, we bring products that meet European and American standards for Thai consumers to evaluate and choose fairly. love Thailand from VN❤
As a car guy since I could drive, I agree with you completely about different cars serving a different purpose. I drive a Tesla with autopilot for my commute and it's the best thing for daily driving
Even though this year’s event isn’t loaded with custom tuner cars, the exotics were still there on the different hall. I almost missed them until I noticed the new Countach and the Speedtail and the Ferraris sitting on display.
how are they going to support the recharging of these. i have seen the grid system there and it looks horrible with all the wires hanging out.
Was this last weekend or this weekend? I was there last weekend drinkn at Buddy's and Oshea's so really hope it wasn't then 😢
Great Video Chad, keep them coming 👍
Not much of an EV guy, but gotta say, I like the look of these over all the others.
Also, I like your take on the whole thing
Question sir what is the best time of year to visit Thailand for car show's? Tia
It's up to which car shows you want to go my friend, in Thailand there are countless of annual car show events, and also a lot of car communitys too and you have to follow them communities if you want to go one.
Also This events is one of a large annual event just like a Motor show, not like the race car show event like Souped Up event.
Unless you are from another country on the equator, don't go to Thailand in March, April, or May.
It's fooking hot. Probably at a level you aren't ready for. I know lots of places get hot. But it hits different in Thailand.
November to February is probably the nicest weather. It's also the busiest tourist times.
@@herranton you are right my friend it's very hot at those time but do not forget that 13 April is a Thailand new year "Songkran" day and Songkran is the most famous day ever for the Thai people and also for the tourists to come to play the most famous water festival in the world.😂😂😂
@@onalonan Absolutely! Songkran is amazing. But I wouldn't make it your first trip. Thai weather is like Thai food. You gotta build up a tolerance to take the heat, haha.
@@herranton LOL 😂😂😂
“I don’t support Chinese products” except the Chinese camera 🎥 used to shoot this video, the Chinese laptop used to edit it, the Chinese microphone 🎤 I’m speaking to you on, the Chinese tripod that supports my camera, my clothes, shoes, and glasses made in China. China has its flaws, but I’ll admit to buying products from them.
Chinese electric cars kick ass, and he knows it. He's just lying his pockets with a little Vietnamese cash 😅😅.😅😅😅😅
@@ELCEV This channel has two guys that lived in China for a combined 25years and now live in the US as they had to leave. They aren't great believers in China because of the government. Here is a video to start with "China Fact Chasers - China's EV Industry is Really Blowing Up!" They have a number of channels between them all on China, so it is worth looking at the video list to see what they talk about. This channel is little chunks taken out of a live vid they do every week, Friday night US time.
@@tomthebadasscat There clowns, go there yourself and see. I know exactly who you're talking about they're making money working for the other side I guess. 😂
Currently in Vietnam and seeing Vinfast cars and SUV’s everywhere. They look cool. They also make electric motorbikes. The mall has hundreds of EV charging stations for motorbikes (and cars). Vietnam is thriving!
The vf-3 is really cool. I’d daily that little thing
i agree with you love the wild it looks awesome
Saw this truck at a wrap shop in BKK a few days before the start of the show, took some pictures, thought about sending the photos to you. Got immediately distracted by fully caged supra driving by and getting gas. Also got some pictures of it.
You nailed it with your opinion about electric cars. I drive BEV since six years. First eGolf, then since two years Hyundai Ioniq 5. And I'm very happy with it and charge many month per year only at my own PV.
But I'm also a fan of drag racing, and my favorite event each year since 30 years is the NitrOlympx drag racing event at Hockenheim here in Germany. And in the garage a 69 Camaro is waiting to be finished.
It’s very interesting to see Vietnam can see the importance of having a motor vehicle industry to lift the economy
Unlike here in Australia where we have closed our car industry down
The Ute looks very different, I don’t mind it 👍👍
Fisker dead because the upper management. The car itself is better than VF
Did VF talk about the software issues in the US market, let's hope that the all of the EV's keeps on running on the street and does not breakdown during heavy traffic (adding more to traffic jams)
There are plenty ones broken down in middle of the road. It’s going to be recall soon
@@tigerchinese I only see Tesla broken down and not even one Vinfast. stupid lie
Don't worry , it's going to be other brand that are broken down , you want to bet
Looks great!!! i like the VF9 as well 😮
Why not buy a Chinese EV? I have seen some great prices on them.
It’s because China is the big bad guy. But you need to put on the tinfoil hat and forget that U.S. Corporations are about ten times worse - in fact we revolutionized the caste system here in the states - but don’t look at that squirrel. There’s the big bad guy to beat.
Typically Chinese = low quality and low safety standards - but Amurrica is starting to give them a run for their money.
Because most Chinese companies are state owned and they are commies that will use that money to kill us all eventually
So you don't support an authoritarian dictatorship?
their trash
@@troyn.6723 lol, I think you mean _they're._
I totally agree Chad.. i have a crazy Nissan patrol build in Australia, unfortunately going to have to sell it.. so wish I could bring it to Thailand 😢
Vinfast has some good designs but are still fine tuning their final products. Once they finally figure that all out they'll be a good alternative.
Are they any EV vans like the Toyota hiace at the auto show ?
I mean, I just purchased an F82 M4 Comp about a month ago and its my everything car! Daily and weekender!
My 6.2 litre supercharged V8 is my daily.
Call it overindulgent, it was once my weekender, until my ex decided she wanted everything.
I negotiated keeping my car and gave her everything else.
Maybe a VinFast for when I'm in Bangkok, and the HSV for when I'm in Australia.
I think you should have different countries for different situations.
that VF3 is actually not bad looking, for a small area such as an island or metropolitan area (city driving) it should be ann acceptable transportation and might actually be enjoyable with a nice stereo in it
Best daily driver I ever was a Model Y. Autodriving was insane and amazing.
Are Chinese vehicles subject to the 300% import duty?
BYD will have a factory in Thailand, no import fees.
It's about time they give you a VIP Invitation... As for EV's in my opinion they are an appliance to get from A-B.
Nice...doing your "old" and new job all at once..... COOL video Bro!
Truck looks cool but it's electric. I'm still thinking of a second hand Raptor. Thanks for the show, Thailand Paul
Never heard of them, but the full size suv with that range 🤯. That truck would be great for America… I need that family vehicle, but I also need some bed space. I like it !
You can order the 3 row now. Will be therể by the end of the year
They sell vinfast in the US already and they are shit.
Vietnam may have a Vinfast, but they will never beat Indonesia lo! That is their reality
Think the Vin Fast Truck will ever come to the US ?
No it won’t, we don’t import Asian cars except Hyundai and Nissan and Toyota.
Honda
Damn I missed it. Is there another car show next month? I'll be in Thailand on the 18th.
They actually seem quite nice, and of course that WIld looks good!
Hopefully you show some cooler EVs as well. Can’t remember if it was at the show but there’s an Ionic 5N on display at the Hyundai Design Center at True Digital Park. That is a car that should excite every car guy.
For someone who lives and works in the city and drives 20 to 40 miles a day its perfect. Drive all week and charge once over the weekend. For rural drivers who routinely put 50 plus ➕ miles a day or more its more aggravation than its worth. I'm much more impressed with hydrogen vehicles. As the tech improves on them it will most likley be the way to go.
I agree with your take if you can afford more than one car. For my use case, I use a plug-in Hybrid for my daily car. I have no interest in self driving, one pedal driving, or a stark minimalist interior. Give me buttons not an iPad strapped to a dash. For fun I'll hop in my E39 M5 or my turbo 1975 BMW 2002. But for some a simple EV might be the right choice. Nice commercial :)
I like the look of that ev truck thingy. Prefer a big block gas motor but for daily drivers ev is good.
REally interesting indeed... Prices are excellent!!
The pickup truck looks interesting. The smallest car looks cute. All the other cars in between don't look great at all. 700,000+ thb for that small car is going to be a tough sell. The problem you have with this brand is the lack of network, track record and image. With EV batteries reliability and flammability I wouldn't be buying any for the time being. I will stick to my Ranger with its 3.2l diesel as my daily for a long long time.
VinFast is currently building a $4B facility in North Carolina. The VF Wild and Fisker Alaska are really good looking EV concept trucks and their midsized makes more sense than the full size the Big 3 are rushing to market.
Chad, the BYD SEAL is also not bad
Nope It is bad🤫
My 1995 S10 Blazer hauls 10 ft lumber! I call it "blaze wild"!
This feels like a paid advertisement. No shade if thats the case. But, this my least favorite video you've ever made.
Purely based on looks and taking any EV opinion out of the picture...I love it! I'll keep my '93 Hilux though :)
E-cars make sense as a cheap commuter at around $15K. But as a truck it will never work outside of a city truck.
We have hybrid rav4 & 720s
That fast charge sounds like its going to destroy the longevity of the batteries. Charging at that high of a rate, to make it that fast, is very bad for the cell chemistry.
The batteries are designed specifically for fast charging. It's 2024 not 2010.
@@tomthebadasscat Lmao. Guessing you believe everything you read huh.....
@@ChainsawFPV LMAO we have a rocket scientist. Has the recliner taken off yet?
@@tomthebadasscat Well that is the dumbest thing I have heard today. Congrats!
Right. Just like shoes! I drive my Dacia from A to B, my Mustang convertible for a ice cream on a sunny day, my Koenigsegg on a track day to let off steam.
Loved your channel right up to the point you started waffling on about electric vehicles and the specifications boring!
They should make the VF3 4x4 with big tires
What about the Indian made MG ev ?
03:53 just sold my catfish camaro, thanks cb media for making me sad again...
I'm kinda liking that VF 9
I gotta move to Thialand!!
Love cars, love gas engines, love my ev’s! I drive a Maserati, Lotus, Mercedes, dodge, and a shit ton of Alfa Romeos. F-ing love my coded i3 Rex!
❤ H-T truck. 5 n 8 bed. Luv the cute 3
a pick up is a good idea to own you never know when your gonna need to haul something
I feel most people should have electric golf carts for daily driving. You don't need huge horsepower to drive around town and sit in traffic. If you could do pedal assist, even better.
if that truck survive i thailand then it will survive everything...the thais use there trucks for work and play..and they both work and play hard.if you been there you understand what im talking about.i bet atleast the hilux is going to give this ev truck a real challenge.great vid as usual..👍👍
Tesla is the best car company ever! No gas stations, No oil changes, No smog check, No corrupt dealership, No catalytic converter and as fast as a $650,000 Lamborghini .
Strange advert you are doing but I guess you gotta get that money. All reviews in the US and Canada shit on Vinfast.
I do agree with your comments on the Vinfast!!
This car show looks amazing actually
The right car can be your daily and weekend track car .
I like this car : VF Wild
So nice, so strong, so different!
Looks 1000% better than that Tesla Cybertruck
Concur. Cybertruck is too divisive. There is little middle ground between loving the cybertruck and thinking its a monstrosity.
The Expeng flying car is soo cool!
Chad dude the VF wild is sick buy one just saying
I'm old School 73 years old I love combustion I love the noise can't get enough of that I love gas and diesel can't get enough of that. I know electric is the future can't stop it, but I need noise can't get away from it, so I'll always have one. My daily driver is a 1997 Dodge Ram Lariat with a 360 with aggressive flow exhaust love the sound of that engine. Nothing big in it just plain Jane stock. Every gas or diesel engine has its own distinctive noise My next favorite is a small block Chevy. Just saying. Love CB Media Look forward to it. (GOTTA HAVE GAS)
Hey Chad
