The BYD seal is a very good looking car, I hope it comes to Thailand soon. BYD launches in Thailand on August 8, signing an MOU to receive a discount from the government Starting the Thai market with the Dolphin

Lots to unpack @Sophon but a few points to start with: I purchased the panels locally and imported the inverters and batteries so I wasn't gouged with a big mark up. I then got a local team I had used before to do the install. I have a friend who wanted to do all the install except fitting the panels and my guy gave him a reasonable price for that. Regarding the EV I would recommend going for the free wall box that comes with most EVs in Thailand as that will give you a 7kW charging speed. It will mean a 10kW or 2x5kW inverters but it does mean that you will be able to dump your maximum solar production into the car in the middle of the day and avoid curtailment.

Ships from China, so there may be duty to pay. Don’t know the brand sorry

One manufacturer we have not talked about much here in EVs in Thailand is Mercedes Benz. So when a dealership brought cars to my local Robinson I asked the dealership owner about what EQ cars he had - none! To understand EVs from MB it is best to look at the UK website. EQ means electric and cars range from A to X ascending in price. Currently MB imports some whole cars and assembles some in Thailand, however MB is building a factory to Manufacture EVs in Thailand, but for some reason they have decided to start with EQS

I have three Growatt SPF 5000 ES and I can recommend them. The app is great. My 20kW of PV means that I was never going to be allowed to export. My system powers my house and EV with most months no power being used from PEA. In the picture below you can see I have a 4th inverter which is connected to my original Deep Cycle Gel system. I have an ATS which allows me to use my old solar system as “Grid” (Power sources in order: Solar; Battery; Utility) and then switch over to PEA.

Just did a search for CHAdeMO in my province and found none. Maybe more common on older chargers around BKK CCS2:

Thai EV forums are talking about a substantial price cut for the Nissan Leaf in Thailand. I am not sure that the rumors are true as the official website is still quoting the original price, but with the new model Nissan Ariya coming to the market soon it does make sense to clear the old stock. https://en.nissan.co.th/vehicles/new-vehicles/leaf.html# https://www.nissanusa.com/ariya.html In 2018 I attended the Bangkok motor show to look for an EV. Back then choices were limited but the Nissan Leaf was available. At 2 million Baht it was twice the price of the same car in Europe or America and even then I was not impressed with the specs. A 40kWh battery is small compared to most EVs. CHAdeMO charging connectors are a rare site at public charging stations. No active cooling of the battery pack when the car was going to be used in the tropics! Inside the car looked dated with the CD radio, it looked more like a Suzuki Swift than a modern EV. In 2019 MG released the ZS EV and after a test drive I put down a deposit on that instead. So if the price reduction is real, does the Leaf make a good value choice? In my option, no. You would better off buying an MG EP with your one million Baht.

This is a discussion about EVs available or coming to Thailand. Not private imports but cars supported here with a dealer network. Are you interested in an EV as your next car if so which one and why? Do you know of any breaking news about EVs in Thailand? If so post here. This not a discussion about EVs v ICE cars - for that go here: https://aseannow.com/topic/1246109-ice-vs-ev-the-debate-thread/ This is not a discussion about Chinese cars - for that go here: https://aseannow.com/topic/1235921-why-so-many-chinese-cars-mg-cars-do-people-only-care-to-buy-something-cheap-whatever-is-the-quality/ Mods please delete any posts that try to hijack this thread.
