Same idea. There will definitely be some waiting, but I think something with the Blade 2 battery will come out in 2027, if not even earlier. In any case, the competition is there. They can’t stop the progress.

This news looks pretty important: https://carnewschina.com/2026/03/06/byd-fires-1500-kw-shot-abroad-overseas-flash-charging-starts-end-2026/ If BYD really plans to start rolling out ultra-fast charging locations overseas from late 2026, then it likely also means they will begin updating their vehicles with battery systems capable of fully taking advantage of that kind of charging speed. The pace of technological progress is getting faster and faster. What seemed unrealistic not long ago is starting to look like the next real step in EV development.

today BYD announce the new blade battery. https://cnevpost.com/2026/03/05/byd-unveils-2nd-gen-blade-battery/ also this new type of battery will come with lifetime warranty at least in China

At this point, in light of the upcoming BYD ATTO 3, the rest of the competition will have to improve their products very quickly — otherwise there won’t be any real competition left.

it's really a big update . will be a totally different car. 442 HP , a really funny car also

I really like the Zeekr 7X too, but the idea of buying something that’s already “old” because China already has the updated version bothers me a bit. The problem is that maybe next year, when the updated model finally arrives in Thailand, China will release another update again, haha… So for now I’ll wait a bit more.

https://carnewschina.com/2025/11/08/updated-byd-atto-3-will-have-650-km-range-with-74-880-kwh-blade-battery-pack/ Update on the Atto 3 — I believe that after the recent price war, the next trend will be to increase power and battery capacity while keeping the price at the same level.

Any news on the tax changes for remittance in Thailand? It seemed like it was already a done deal, but with the current political issues, maybe it has stalled. Not sure.

Just to point out, the IM6 in China is actually called the LS6 and it was updated recently. Basically, here in Thailand we still have the previous version. The update in China also introduced an EREV version, much more luxurious interiors, and several other improvements. Another very interesting point, which may have gone unnoticed, is that Zeekr will soon start assembling cars in Malaysia. Once this is up and running, maybe we will see more competitive pricing. And on top of that, within the next year we’ll see updates across various models from many brands, along with new market entries – so we definitely won’t be getting bored.

the news rule will apply also to foreigners?

I notice it. There are interesting discounts now in the hotels in bangkok, especially for members.

in a few days a new competitor. CHERRY is entering the market, with electric and plug in hybrid models.

but you have to do the tm30 every time you enter in Thai or don't need? thanks
