2027 Vinfast VF 8 Eco, HI Charging Cost
2027 Vinfast VF 8 Eco: home charging cost in Hawaii
At Hawaii's residential electricity rate of 45.95¢/kWh, a 2027 Vinfast VF 8 Eco (rated 46.2 kWh per 100 miles by the EPA) costs $21.25 to drive 100 miles on home charging, against $16.02 for the same distance in a car averaging 25.5 mpg on gasoline at $4.085/gallon. This model costs more to charge at home than gas would here: 32.7% more than gas per mile here, not less, the arithmetic isn't clamped to always favor charging.
2027 Vinfast VF 8 Eco: yearly cost in Hawaii
Driving 15,000 miles a year, fueleconomy.gov's own default assumption, a 2027 Vinfast VF 8 Eco charged at home in Hawaii costs about $3,188/year in electricity, against about $2,403/year for the gas-car comparison. That's about $785 MORE a year than the gas comparison, not less.
Filling up the 2027 Vinfast VF 8 Eco, in dollars

Where this ranks
This combination ranks 20,356 of 20,400 state/model pairs for cost savings against gas (1 is cheapest). The Vinfast VF 8 Eco alone ranks 363 of 400 models for efficiency; Hawaii alone ranks 51 of 51 states for electricity price.
Before you install a home charger in Hawaii
The numbers above assume Level 2 home charging is already in place, the electrical work behind that is a real, separate cost that varies by panel, wiring, and local labor rates, not something this page's per-mile math includes.

Where these figures come from
Every figure on this page traces to a named EIA or EPA dataset, see the methodology guide. This is one of the combinations where charging costs more than gas, the guide to when that happens explains why the arithmetic can go either way.
