  1. You can say the same about EV dealerships then with a dramatic reduction of sales in February 2024 of 72.12% compared to January 2024 If EV yearly sales remain at 76,000 per year it will take 164 years before every cars in Thailand is an EV If a dealership has a good receptionist they take note of how people come through the door how many leave without asking for further information ( Window Shopping ) How many ask for more information which sales person they were assigned to. and sales manager will have list of monthly sales, who the salesperson was and have a breakdown of number of people engaging with a sales person and how many sales were completed So if a dealership sees a drop in people coming through the door and completed sales dropping they will look at their immediate competitors to see if they are doing anything different and take appropriate action I have only ever come across 1 dealership in the middle east where they were offering a 2 for 1 deal and that was buy a used Rolls Royce and they would through in a old fiat 500c with canvas roof and no a/c
  2. I don't think any of the Toyota Dealerships will be worried with only EV 3,083 vehicles being sold in Chiang Mai
  3. That might happen In Bangkok where there is an oversupply of dealerships Thailand Number of Registered Vehicles was reported at 20,463,502 Unit in Jan 2024. excluding motorcyles Once you exclude commercial and agricultural vehicles that leaves approx 12.5 million vehicles on the road remove all the EV registered between January 2020 and 31st January 2024 approx 102,090 or in % terms 0.8% so approx 12.4 million ice vehicles registered on the road January 2024 Once you step outside Bangkok a different picture emerges 10 states with the highest number of people using electric vehicle cars Of course, the province with the highest number of registrations is Bangkok, with 52,751 vehicles, and the province that follows in second place is Chiang Mai, with 3,083 vehicles, and in third place is Chonburi, with 2,392 vehicles. https://www.newsdirectory3.com/analysis-of-electric-vehicle-registrations-in-thailand-and-expansion-of-charging-stations/ Phuket numbers seem low 1,039 cars and Mae Hong Son Province, 1 vehicle That single EV in the Mae Hong Son Province must be feeling lonely
  4. Thailand welcomes Tourists, Tourists don't work and don't take jobs away from Thai people
  5. I assume you mean the Tune hotel at klia2 which is owned by Air Asia and is also the hotel that the flight stewardess stay at
  6. I think closure of this thread should be left to the op who hasn't been online for 20 hours if any member can request closure of a thread because they don't like the content no one can predict if the op requires further information on Durability of Chinese EVs or does the op want to modify the title to include all EV since we know Chinese EV's have only been in Thailand since 2019 no very long when you compare 5 years with 20 years of the current Toyota model that his relative is driving would you agree that the closure of this thread without the op's approval would be acceptable
  7. No need to mention it as it was clearly there in the article Additional insurance coverage for batteries and chargers can be purchased.
  8. You should advise your relative that changes on level of cover for batteries is coming this year some insurance will implement changes Jan 1st 2024 all insurance companies have to implement changes by 31st May 2024 The OIC approves electric vehicle (BEV) insurance criteria, separately covering batteries according to their service life. If it is more than 5 years or more, compensation is 50% of the battery price. Effective from 1 January 2024 onwards. https://www.sanook.com/auto/90191/
  9. Gartner Outlines a New Phase for Electric Vehicles By 2027, Next-Generation BEVs Will, on Average, Be Cheaper to Produce Than a Comparable ICE By 2027, the Average Cost of an EV Body and Battery Serious Accident Repair to Increase by 30% By 2027, 15% of EV Companies Founded Since Last Decade Will Be Acquired or Bankrupt https://www.gartner.com/en/newsroom/press-releases/2024-03-07-gartner-outlines-a-new-phase-for-electric-vehicles
  10. Its a forum people have different opinions not everyone agrees with your opinions of my posts so i will still post regardless of what you think about my posts
  11. I am not going to stop posting just for you and as to your opinion of my posts as Tony Blair once said am i bothered
  12. But you seem to be a fan of my posts so enjoy there will be more in the future
  13. My post count shows 4,000 it must have taken you weeks to read every single post
  14. I think your being deliberately obtuse if you read the article they driver stated Battery malfunction was displayed on the screen after that time the brakes failed to work when pressed
  15. Read the article driver stated battery malfunction Last time I checked the M62 near Manchester isn't in Thailand
  16. Plenty of posters with no experience of non Chinese EVs, yet they are more than happy to advise you based on their extensive ignorance. Haven't seen a single forum member of this forum admitting to owning a Nissan Leaf EV but I have seen plenty of posts from the EV fanboys on this forum slagging off the Nissan Leaf EV yet no one owns one or not admitting owning one @Maybole Durability of Chinese EVs impossible to answer since Chinese Ev's only available in Thailand in small numbers since 2019 if you want to look at Durability of EVs regardless of country of manufacturer suggest you look at Nissan Leaf and Tesla as both have been in use for the past 14 years not in Thailand but other countries
  17. Unlikely that ICE manufacturers will go bankrupt in the next 5 years simply they have more fingers in their pies EV slowdown they reduced the number of EV's coming off the production line and simply increase other production lines such as ICE including hybrid One trick EV manufacturers their choices are limited cut price or try and export but export doors are closing soon USA and EU key examples they don't have the option of reducing output as they have no alternative products to sell Toyota hikes annual profit forecast after Q3 beats expectations Hikes full-year profit forecast by about 9% to 4.9 trillion yen Toyota's Q3 operating profit surges almost 76% Shares close up 4.8% after the announcement https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/toyota-posts-76-jump-q3-operating-profit-2024-02-06/
  18. A number of Chinese EV brands are looking to setup factories in Turkey Turkey Labour rates are lower than the EU countries And since Turkey is part of European Union's customs union no additional tariffs for vehicles going from Turkiye to EU market Turkiye has something that the EU doesn't want 5 Million migrants all wanting to leave Turkey and enter Europe
  19. According to the driver of the Jaguar i-pace he tried to apply the brakes but they failed to work Similar case with the MG ZS EV in Scotland where the the police had to block him in and then allow the MG to hit the back of the police vehicle
  20. Just Posting information on EV related faults as far as I know if your ICE vehicle suddenly displays "battery malfunction" that doesn't stop you from applying the brakes to bring your vehicle to a safe halt
  21. Terrified M62 driver speaks out following claims Jaguar suffered 'electrical fault' as he was 'unable to brake' Drama unfolded after the Jaguar I-PACE vehicle, according to police, malfunctioned on the eastbound carriageway of the motorway towards Eccles yesterday afternoon (Wednesday). The vehicle, it is claimed, reached speeds of 90mph before police used specialist tactics to ram it and bring it to a halt. https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/greater-manchester-news/m62-driver-electric-jaguar-brakes-28770576 There was a similar case a few months ago with a MG ZS EV also unable to brake
  22. What is the Toyota model she is driving, how many km is her nearest EV dealer, will she be charging from home, how many km does she travel in a single trip, which EV model is she looking at you should ignore the EV fanboys on this forum and she should check out the facebook groups for the model she is interested in also ask why she is thinking about EV if it discount we started see ICE brands such as Mazda and Suzuki offering major discounts on their models
  23. I not bother what happens to the swiss guy but clearly you are you tried to down play the statement from Police Colonel Itthipol Itthisaranachai, Superintendent of Immigration Division 6, The report highlighted the individual's behavior, indicating multiple incidents of misconduct, totaling 3-4 times, which adversely affected the peace and happiness of the people in the country, posing a threat to society. https://www.facebook.com/watch/?ref=saved&v=419778263900124 You stated it was A nonsense article adding fuel to the fire. Multiple incidents of misconduct which are completely unsubstantiated. I would suspect that the Police have access to information that is not in the public domain Remember his visa was revoked under section 12 Immigration Act, B.E. 2522 7 Having behavior which would indicated possible danger to the public or likelihood of being a nuisance or constituting any violence to the peace or safety of the public or to the security of the public or to the security of the nation, or being under warrant of arrest by competent officials of foreign governments.
  24. Case Closed Ambulance driver fined B1,000 for insulting Swiss guy fined B,1000 for insulting and B,4000 for reckless driving https://www.khaophuket.com/จับปรับเดวิดคนดัง-มอบช่อดอกไม้ขอโทษคนขับรถพยาบาล-ตัดหน้าให้นิ้วกลางด่าทอบนถ-10883.php
