But once there is a hydrogen infustracture, as there will be soon, every major country is investing heavily in it

If you want to be taken seriously in this discussion you can’t just spout BS you need to post evidence to support your arguments

H2 is a deception promoted by the fossil fuel industry and I can’t believe people are still falling for it.

Thailand doesn’t have a single commercial H2 filling station or a H2 car you can buy.

As for the rest of the world- tried it didn’t like it.

“First Shell, now Motive, hydrogen fuel station closures continue in the UK
The number of hydrogen refuelling stations in the UK has dwindled from 15 in 2021 to just 5 now”

For people looking for actual info, these are the fast charging stations in Thailand: Make sure you can charge at home if you buy and EV.

 

For people looking for actual Factual info, please ignore the map posted above as these are not the fast charging stations in Thailand: Make sure you ignore the poster who doesn’t drive an EV so is not up to date with the latest developments in EV charging infrastructure in Thailand

Reposting, actual number of 100kW+ chargers in Thailand, anything else is a lie.

OMG he’s back accusing everybody of lying again.

Claiming to have driven a model 3 in BKK but several years, but Tesla only started selling in Thailand in December 2022.

Let's keep the name calling for the kindergarten and focus on the EV sales numbers y-o-y:

January: +352.5%

February: -33.9%

March: -19.5%

 

The honeymoon period is over for EVs.

Reminder (Again): This is a discussion about EVs in Thailand.

If you want to bash EVs in general save that for the EVs v ICE discussion

If you don’t want to be mocked and ridiculed in this discussion then don’t post some random data that you are trying to pass off as Thailand data.

Always post links so what you post can be fact checked, otherwise nobody will take anything you say seriously.

Per DLT data, RY1 Passenger Cars (7 people or less) registrations for Mar 2023 and Mar 2024

 

                      All RY1 (EV, ICE, Hybrid.etc)        EV Only

Mar 2023       66,061                                          6,204  (9.4% of All RY1)

Mar 2024       45,315                                          4,720   (10.4% of All RY1)

So March was a bad month for all car sales in Thailand, but worse for ICE cars as the relentless growth of EVs here replace ICE cars.

Does anyone own an EV but can’t charge at home? 
 

I just moved to a new house (rental) and can’t / don’t want to install a wallbox. 

However there is a gas station with chargers just around the corner. 

 

That’s why I’m wondering if some people here rely on public chargers only? 

It would be helpful to know where you are located, if you are retired and what your monthly milage is.

My EV has 580km of range which equivalent to 83km/day range if you charged once a week. 

My local Robinson here in Surin NE Thailand has 4 chargers and cheap rates at weekends.  

If I were you I would combine my charging with other activities like meeting friends for coffee.

I can add 7km of range per kWh and can charge at 150kW/hour. So I can add 350km of range in 20 minutes.

Let's see some evidence of this claim of yours, KhunLA got caught in a big lie. Are you lying as well?

This statement of yours make makes me question whether you have ever driven an EV.

Anyone who had actually driven an EV will know that the slowest AC Wall charger is 7kW. They don't make 3-5kW CCS type 2 wall chargers. That is why there are none listed on PlugShare. Yet you claim that they are the majority of chargers!

Lie confirmed

Now let's hear more about this Tesla model 3  that you drove in BKK for several years. How much did you pay for it and where did you buy it? Because this is sounding like a lie as well.

Our 6 hour EV charging disaster...how is it still this bad?

 

Apologize if others have posted this previously.  Good entertainment for EV skeptics.

 

No, it's not in Thailand.

Stupid people shouldn’t try anything too complicated like driving an EV or posting in an EV discussion when they have no knowledge or experience of EVs as they just end up humiliating themselves.

it doesn't bother me that you like ev's

I don’t like my EV

I love being able to charge it at home for free from excess solar power
I love that it comes with over 6 Tesla powerwalls of backup power for my house which means I don’t need PEA anymore

I love the instant torque

I love the 0-100km/h in 3.8 seconds without spinning my wheels 

I love that it has perfect 50:50 weight distribution

I love that it has an incredible low centre of gravity and goes round corners like it’s on rails

I love the drag coefficient of just 0.219 Cd which is better than a Porsche Taycan
I love the regenerative breaking and not having to use the brake pedal
I love the adaptive suspension
I love that the battery pack is a structural component, increasing torsional stiffness and so increasing handling limits
I love the Torque vectoring which sends power to which wheel needs it most
I love that it only has one gear  
I love that it has a very long wheel base
I love that it is so silent to drive for me and other road users
I love that I am not poisoning the pedestrians and motorbike riders around me when I drive or sit at the traffic lights

I love that it has a front storage compartment where the engine would be in an ICE car
I love being able to switch on the aircon while I’m still in the restaurant

I love being able to do “Find My Car” because the car has a 5G chip

I love the 8 year warranty for the car and battery

I love 8 year completely free servicing and breakdown recovery

I love the way it looks

See it does disprove it...

The only thing I can see is that you totally lack all ability to construct an argument.

Next time try including some reasons, explanations and evidence. Then you won’t sound like you’re still in kindergarten
