On July 20, VinFast launched two new electric scooters, the Kyo and Kinet, in Vietnam. The Kyo starts at 31.9 million VND with a battery lease plan (37.5 million including battery), while the Kinet is priced at 42.5 million VND (55.08 million including two batteries). Both support swappable batteries, offering a maximum range of 160km with two batteries installed, and feature a TFT display and smart key.

I consider VinFast's swappable-battery strategy a solution optimized for the reality of Southeast Asia. It eliminates the wait for charging, swapping the battery at a station instead. More essential than the 160km range figure is the pricing design that lets you choose between rental and bundled ownership. It's a rational move to lower the barrier to ownership.

What's actually different about battery rental compared to just buying it outright?

So you buy the bike itself cheap and rent the battery monthly. Lowers the upfront cost, but long term it depends on the total.

TFT display and smart key as standard, isn't that a ton of equipment for this price range?

With the battery rental plan, it doesn't say how much the monthly fee is, so it's hard to compare the total cost.

With a swappable battery giving 160km range, that should easily cover most commutes.

With the battery included it's 37.5 million, and the Kinet is 55.08 million. That's quite a gap.

If the Kyo starts at 31.9 million dong with battery rental, keeping the upfront cost down like that is a big deal.
