VinFast VF 9 Extended Range EV charger: which one fits best?

The VinFast VF 9 Extended Range is a large three-row SUV with a 123 kWh battery. That is one of the largest batteries you will find in an SUV this size, and it decides your choice of charger. At home you charge on alternating current (AC) at up to 11 kW. With a battery this size you want to use all of that. The car is then full again by morning. Our VinFast EV chargers overview lists the charging details for every VinFast model.

For the VinFast VF 9 Extended Range we recommend a charger from our 11 kW EV chargers.

Which EV charger suits the VinFast VF 9 Extended Range?

At home the VF 9 Extended Range charges at up to 11 kW on a three-phase connection. Three-phase means a supply that carries three live phases instead of one. An 11 kW charger is therefore the logical choice, because the car cannot go faster. A 22 kW unit adds nothing at home.

With that 11 kW you refill the big battery over a single night, without any planning. Also look at what the charger measures. A MID meter is a certified kWh meter built into the charger. It shows exactly what charging at home costs, apart from the rest of your household use.

At 11 kW the choice with a MID meter is narrow. If you need that measurement, look at our 22 kW EV chargers. The choice is wider there, and your VinFast still charges at 11 kW. Without a MID meter the 11 kW charger stays the cheaper option.

Two features earn their keep on a car that charges every night. With dynamic load balancing the charger measures how much power your fuse box has to spare. It then adjusts the charging speed on the fly, so a circuit never trips. An EV charger with an app lets you set a session on your cheapest hours and follow your consumption.

How long does the VinFast VF 9 Extended Range take to charge?

The maths is simple. Divide the 123 kWh battery by 11 kW of charging power. That lands you at roughly 11 hours from empty to full. In practice you rarely run a battery this size down to empty. Plug in with a third of the battery left and the car is ready the next morning.

A big battery is exactly where a fixed 11 kW charger pays off. An ordinary wall socket would take days to do the same job.

Frequently asked questions

Does the VinFast VF 9 Extended Range need a three-phase supply?

For the full 11 kW at home, yes. Your meter box needs three live phases for that. On a single-phase supply the charging power drops and the big 123 kWh battery takes considerably longer. A qualified electrician can tell you whether your supply can be upgraded and what that involves where you live.

Why does a MID meter matter for the VF 9 Extended Range?

A MID-certified kWh meter records your charging accurately. You then know what a full battery costs you at home, separately from the rest of your electricity bill. On a car that draws this much every night, that difference adds up quickly.

Is installation by a qualified electrician mandatory?

That depends on where you live, so check the rules in your own country. We always recommend it either way. A qualified electrician makes the connection safely, and that matters for your insurance. Wallbox Discounter arranges installation in the Netherlands, Flemish Belgium and Germany. In the Netherlands and Flemish Belgium you order it together with the charger. In Germany it runs through a free quote. Shipping is a separate matter: we ship almost everything worldwide, but installation is limited to those three countries.
