The VinFast Feliz S (often referred to as the Feliz II or the upgraded Feliz) is VinFast’s high-performance evolution of its popular mid-range electric scooter. Positioned as a versatile "smart" commuter, it balances elegant European-inspired aesthetics with robust LFP battery technology.
1. Design & Aesthetics: Elegant & Ergonomic
The Feliz S retains a classic, sophisticated look reminiscent of high-end Italian scooters but with a modern, aerodynamic twist.
- Dimensions : 1,912 x 693 x 1,128 mm. It features a high ground clearance of 134 mm, making it ideal for navigating urban obstacles and curbs.
- Lighting : Equipped with a full LED headlight system, including projector lamps for superior night visibility and stylish integrated rear tail lights.
- Premium Finish : The paint quality and body panels are designed to be weather-resistant, maintaining a premium look over years of use.
2. Performance: Powered by LFP Technology
The most significant upgrade in this version is the transition to LFP (Lithium Iron Phosphate) battery technology, developed in collaboration with Gotion High-Tech.
- Extended Range : A single charge provides an impressive range of up to 156 km (when traveling at a constant 30 km/h), making it one of the longest-range scooters in its class.
- In-hub Motor : Driven by a powerful 3 kW Max BLDC motor integrated directly into the rear wheel.
- Speed & Acceleration : It reaches a top speed of 78 km/h, allowing for confident riding on main roads and highways.
- Ride Modes : Features two modes—Eco for maximum range and Sport for quick acceleration and overtaking.
3. Utility & Storage: Maximum Practicality
VinFast redesigned the internal layout to maximize space for the rider.
- Trunk Capacity : By moving the battery to the floorboard, the under-seat storage has been expanded to 25 liters. This is large enough to fit two open-face helmets and various personal items.
- Charging Convenience : Comes with a 1000W portable charger, allowing you to charge the bike from 0% to 100% in approximately 3.40 hours using a standard home outlet.
4. Safety & Durability
Built to withstand harsh tropical environments, the Feliz S is engineered for longevity.
- Water Resistance : The motor and battery system are IP67 rated, meaning the bike can operate safely in flooded streets (up to 0.5 meters deep for 30 minutes).
- Braking System : Features a reliable front disc brake and a rear drum brake, providing balanced stopping power.
- Suspension : Hydraulic telescopic front forks and dual shock absorbers at the rear ensure a smooth ride even on uneven surfaces.
5. Smart Connectivity
The Feliz S is a "connected" vehicle, manageable via the VinFast App:
- Vehicle Management : Real-time tracking of battery health, charging status, and maintenance schedules.
- Anti-Theft : GPS-enabled location tracking and remote locking/unlocking capabilities.
- Diagnostics : Automatically scans for system errors and notifies the user of any issues via their smartphone.
