Marques Brownlee, known as MKBHD, reviewed VinFast Auto's VF8, noting its similarities to the Fisker Ocean SUV, which he previously criticized. Despite some changes in materials and design to cut costs, Brownlee found the VF8's quality lacking, with issues like poor vegan leather seats, an outdated center screen, and a low-quality reverse camera. He concluded that the VF8, priced around $50,000, is a poor choice compared to other SUVs in the same price range. VinFast shares closed down 2.69% at $4.7, marking a 33.33% decline year-to-date.
