The 47th Bangkok International Auto Show will be held from March 25th to April 5th at the Impression Exhibition Center in Bangkok, Thailand. This auto show brings together 37 car brands and 8 motorcycle brands, with multiple Chinese brands making appearances. China's new energy vehicles have attracted many local residents to consult and purchase. Compared with previous years, new energy vehicles have received significantly more attention at this year's exhibition. The exhibition area for Chinese brands is larger and displays more categories of cars. The on-site audience has experienced test drives, and some exhibition areas have long queues in the front row. Behind this popularity is the high recognition of "Made in China" by Thai consumers. According to the statistics of the Federation of Thai Industries, by 2025, the sales of electric vehicles in Thailand will exceed 120000 units, a year-on-year increase of 80%. Chinese brand electric vehicles will maintain a leading market share of over 80%. At the exhibition, Chinese car companies showcased multiple pure electric and plug-in hybrid models, demonstrating advantages such as long range and intelligence. After visiting the exhibition area of Chinese car companies, Thai Prime Minister Anuntin stated that Chinese brands have strong competitiveness in technology and price, which can effectively drive the high-quality development of Thailand's automotive industry. The intensive entry of new car models into the market is driving the rapid iteration of Thailand's automotive industry. At the BYD exhibition area, "blade batteries" became the focus; In the GAC Aion exhibition area, solid-state battery samples attract professional visitors to stop and watch; Dongfeng Fengxing Thunder has strengthened the sealing and water handling capabilities of battery packs in response to the climate and road conditions in Thailand... Chinese brand car companies not only bring the latest vehicle products, but also new energy vehicle technology and localized product customization solutions, deeply participating in and empowering the local industrial ecosystem. Engineer Ruinit, who has been following the dynamics of auto shows for years, said, "New energy vehicles have become the absolute 'protagonist' at exhibitions, and this year everyone is more concerned about charging technology and range." Against the backdrop of the current rise in international oil prices, the high cost-effectiveness of Chinese new energy vehicles has been favored by more consumers. Bangkok resident Thano, who was attending the exhibition on site, told reporters: "The cost of using a car is an important consideration for us when choosing a car. Chinese brands offer many spacious and low-energy household cars with outstanding cost-effectiveness." Chinese car companies are filling in service gaps and extending their service chain around the full cycle of using a car. To address the common pain points of long maintenance cycles and slow supply of parts in the Thai market, GAC Group unveiled its first overseas service brand GAC CARE at the auto show. Wang Haoyong, General Manager of GAC International Thailand Sales Company, stated that the company is accelerating the improvement of its automotive parts network and plans to deploy battery swapping services within the year to reduce operating costs for high-frequency usage scenarios such as ride hailing services. The Vice Chairman of the 47th Bangkok International Auto Show, Zhadoulong Gomommi, stated that Chinese car brands have enriched the choices of Thai consumers. At the same time, China's investment in the new energy vehicle industry chain continues to increase, and related products are also adopted by local Thai enterprises, effectively reducing electricity costs. According to Utamot, consultant of the Thai Electric Vehicle Association, Chinese car companies have expanded from vehicle sales to coordinated layout of services, energy, and industrial chains, injecting strong momentum into the green transformation of Southeast Asian industries.
