BANGKOK, Oct 10 (TNA) – Thailand’s monthly automotive production exceeded 100,000 units for the first time in August after the COVID-19 outbreak, according to the Next Generation Automotive Research Center. 

The center reported that the country produced 117,253 vehicles in August. However, the figure dropped by 30% from the same period last year due to declines in domestic sales and exports. 

 

Domestic sales of cars fell by 15%. However, the sales of double-cab pickup trucks rose by 1%.

"Thailand’s monthly automotive production exceeded 100,000 units for the first time in August"

So how many did they build per month when they produced 2.45 million units in 2012?

 

If 100 K Autos were produced in August, and that was 30% down on the previous Year then the Months from March to August must be really dire.

Possibly suggesting that production was down by 40%b - 50%, or possibly even more.

Producing all these Vehicles is fine, but they have to be sold for Money to come in.
