  1. Looks like the prices of all cars in Thailand are dropping like a stone... https://autolifethailand.tv/discount-official-suzuki-ciaz-thailand/ 150k discount on a brand new Suzuki Ciaz. How long before you break even with the lower fuel costs on the MG 4 for the extra 300k?
  2. Are you trying to tell me a wallbox is worth 70k baht? Let's say a rather generous 20k then it's still a 50k saving.
  3. https://www.car250.com/mg4-th-2024-1.html Another price cut by MG as I expected. All of the early adopters rushing to buy at the end of last year are looking rather foolish now...
  4. They know they will have massive depreciation when a newer model comes out in a year or so that is cheaper, has a bigger battery and charges twice as fast.
  5. How stupid can Western governments get? Forcing Western companies to buy imaginary carbon credits from foreign companies... Energy Absolute must be laughing all the way to the bank.
  6. Let's hope they use some of that money to stop the monorail wheels and conductor rails falling off again!
  7. You said most of the chargers in Thailand are DC chargers but from the website you quoted there are: 2,827 Type 2 AC chargers 1,471 CCS DC chargers Obviously there is only one small child here who doesn't know the definition of the word "most".
  8. Please look up the definition of the word "most" in a dictionary.
  9. You early adopters are in the golden age of EV charging. It's only a matter of time until there are long queues for fast highway chargers like the UK is experiencing now (with the public charging cost higher than petrol).
  10. So how many fast DC chargers are available in Thailand? I think Thailand has the exact same problem as most of the public chargers I see in shopping malls etc are the slow AC type. Even if there are plenty of fast DC chargers available now, at the current rate of EV sales I highly doubt the charging infrastructure will be able to keep up and it will be absolute carnage for longer weekend trips.
  11. Has anyone tried using a car registration (blue) book as proof of address?
  12. Surely it should be 15%? SCB told me the tax deduction was 100% last month because they were collecting taxes on the 20K of interest I already received in June and October. Hopefully at the end of this month the tax deduction will be a lot lower.
  13. I follow this thread because I'm interested in EVs and I occasionally "chime in" to set the record straight when people like you try to compare apples with oranges and refuse to even consider the disadvantages of an EV. You seem unwilling to enter into a balanced discussion weighing the pros and cons and you always try to cherry pick your figures like solar charging, top spec ICE price compared to lowest spec EV price etc. to support your arguments.
  14. Top Speed: Maximum speed 121 km/h (Sport mode) Can run up to 320 km. per charge (WLTP standard) Direct current DC Fast Charging supports up to 45 kW from 30-80%, takes approximately 30 minutes. I'm all for EVs but those figures are too pitiful for a primary car. When they start selling MG 4 specs for the Neta V price then I'll bite if I can solve the charging problem from living in a Bangkok condo. It seems like convenient public chargers in malls overcharge and I don't fancy sitting at a gas station for 30 minutes once a week.
