VERY, VERY well spotted 🏆 🥇 🏅. That is exactly 💯 % what happened. The Grab motorcycle clipped the Seal on the rear-right hand side. They later pulled over and took a couple of pictures with the insurance agent and went on their way. Happy days.

Another Seal flapping helpless around in the middle of traffic while the owner is enjoying a bit of sunshine 🌞 next to the car. Anyone care to venture a guess as to what happened? 20240505_145321.mp4

BYD Seal accident. Everyone walked away 👍 👍. Female driver 😔 😟. Does it qualify 🤔 as an EV fire 🔥?

Ehm, that is a 400% increase. No need to dwell in trivial math details, when it is harvest season on the cherry picking farm.

It is probably just a rounding error for the Bz4x. 3 zeros in a row sound odd. Maybe a 1,000? BMW did well in April at 111 registrations. Mercedes is really struggling to join the party 🥳.

Not that it really matters, but do you know why there is a small discrepancy in the numbers? Autolife and car250 both quote 38,022 for total registrations, while DLT had 39,697 in the sheet you shared. For EV car250 quote 3997 and autolife 4088. EV registrations for April 2024 3997 https://www.car250.com/th-2024-04-11-3.html Total registrations for April 2024 38,022 https://www.car250.com/th-2024-04-11.html

That is correct and more precisely of the Burn 🔥 Your Driveway species.

Hokkaido scallops with saffron risotto and crispy capers.

Nope 👎. I will give you a hint: Laridae

Since you are such an avid ornithologist, let's play spot the bird 🐦 🐦‍⬛ 😉. What kind of bird do you see here? _p0uTqwnK73apbnK.mp4

In this case, it was actually @Bandersnatch that was comparing pick-up sales numbers with EV registrations. Silly, I know. It must be the heat or all that electro-magnetic exposure from being off-grid. Vinny was just trying to point 👉 out and correct this blatant cherry 🍒 picking.

Not a single bird in the market share chart.....yet. Slowly, but surely EVs have been chipping away market share from ICEVs.

Someone has to keep the wheels 🛞 turning.

That is correct. The natural survival instinct kicked in and the claim was later watered down to 3 consecutive months of y-o-y declining market share. On that claim you are still on green pasture, but have some tough month ahead.

Thanks to 175 EV buyers @JBChiangRai's cambit with destiny paid off and the grim reaper walks away empty handed (Last years claim: We will never see 3 consecutive months of y-o-y falling EV registrations in his lifetime). I have added the 2022 numbers, look how small they are. The EV revolution really started in 2023.

Thanks @Pib. Steep discounts do work and as EV factories start production in a falling car market, Thailand will have a significant production over capacity. I think we will see a lot more discounts from ICE manufacturers going forward. Suzuki already cut 51k off the Celerio price. Maybe @transam is in the market for an upgrade? 147 registrations in April out of 592 sales in March, we might still see some of those sales as registrations in May. Any change you can find the January number, just to get a full data set? Ciaz 2024 Registrations: January: February: 26 March: 28 April: 147

Does it come in diesel also?

Awesome 👌 news!!

More tax to solve an unsolvable problem.

Nice, thanks. Interesting that autolife got the numbers exactly right in February and March, but was off a bit in January. Please share the EV registration numbers if u see them.

The autolife February article is for EVs only, so naturally no Ciazs would be listed, since it is an ICEV.

Autolife are sales numbers, right? What matters are the registrations numbers you pull from the DLT site. With 592 Ciaz sales in March, we could see 3-400 registration in April. When are the previous month's data usually available? 2nd or 3rd day of the month?

BTS gone cute 😍.
