If you are considering purchasing a VinFast Lux SA 2.0, this article aims to provide insights into the advantages and disadvantages of this “made in Vietnam” SUV model to support your decisions.

Lux SA 2.0 is no longer a lesser-known model for Vietnamese customers thanks to the effective communication campaign of Vietnamese car manufacturer VinFast as well as the attractiveness of this SUV line. However, in fact, not many customers have the opportunity to fully experience as well as employ the most objective view on this model. Therefore, we have chosen a VinFast Lux SA 2.0 Premium to evaluate the advantages and disadvantages for your convenience to understand more about the experiences that this SUV model brings.

Advantages: Good sound insulation, quiet operation, powerful engine

Due to the use of the BMW X5 F15 (2014-2018) chassis system, VinFast Lux SA 2.0 also has the same advantages as the German model such as good sound insulation and the reliability of the car body when operating in all speed ranges.

In addition, VinFast Lux SA 2.0 also makes a good impression with the 2.0L engine block using several technologies from the BMW N20 engine and the 8-speed ZF gearbox for smooth shifts even when going slowly in crowded urban area. The gas pedal of VinFast Lux SA 2.0 is a bit heavy, but just comfortable enough to give a feeling of good speed control. In addition, it is undeniable that the rear multi-link suspension system with air recess has brought comfort to customers when passing rocky roads or speed bumpers.

Thanks to its smooth gear shifting, stable engine, soft suspension and good sound insulation, VinFast Lux SA 2.0 offers comfort in operation. This is also a great advantage that makes many customers satisfied with this Vietnamese-made SUV model.

In addition, the series of amenities that come with VinFast Lux SA 2.0 such as automatic air conditioning system with integrated ion filter, 6-way electrically adjustable front seats, 4 USB ports and a 220V charging port. For the premium version we evaluate, customers can choose Nappa leather interior, 12-way adjustable seats, rear boot kick sensor, 13-speaker sound system and 360-degree camera around the car.

Disadvantages: “Incomplete” driving experience

Customers interested in the VinFast Lux SA 2.0 may be under the impression that many people do not feel satisfied with the interior finishing and trim. Therefore, in the framework of this article, we want to evaluate the imperfect points of VinFast Lux SA 2.0 in terms of the driving experience.

First, VinFast Lux SA 2.0 electric leather-wrapped steering wheel comes under discussion. The car’s steering wheel easily feels quite compact when departing, similar to many imported cars. When operating in urban areas, the steering wheel proves stable, responding well to the driver. However, as the car accelerates, the steering wheel becomes lighter, losing its original compactness.

In addition, the suspension system of VinFast Lux SA 2.0 has the advantage of providing smoothness when moving through bumpy roads, but it creates a feeling of floating when the car enters turns or changes the steering direction. This can be overcome by actively slowing down or opening a wider cornering angle.

Another point that needs to be upgraded in terms of tech is the quality of the 360-degree camera around the car. This 360-degree camera system offers a good viewing angle, less blind spots, but the displayed image quality needs to be further improved for the driver to easily observe, especially if in low light conditions.

Verdict:

From the aforementioned info, in addition to the advantages, VinFast Lux SA 2.0 still has features that should be upgraded in the next generation. Hopefully, VinFast’s engineers will quickly research and recalibrate Lux SA 2.0 so that this model becomes more and more perfect and suitable to the needs of Vietnamese customers.
