The Thai government places a high priority on the development of the new energy vehicle industry and has introduced a series of policies and measures to support it. The Thai government's goal is for zero-emission vehicles (ZEV) to account for at least 30% of total vehicle output by 2030, that is, 725,000 cars and 675,000 motorcycles.
The second stage of the Thai Electric Vehicle Committee's electric vehicle package (EV 3.5), which lasts for 4 years (2024-2027) is to promote the continuous growth of the electric vehicle industry and provide investment opportunities for new participants in Thai electric vehicle manufacturing. The government will provide subsidies for the purchase of electric vehicles, electric pickups, and electric motorcycles based on the type and battery capacity of the vehicles.
Classification of New Energy Vehicles
New energy vehicles are vehicles that use non-traditional energy for driving.
1. Battery Electric Vehicles (BEV): Driven only by electric motors, using battery-stored electricity as a power source.
2. Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEV): Driven by both electric motors and engines, can use both battery electricity and gasoline or diesel as power sources.
3. Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEV): Driven by both electric motors and engines, but cannot be charged externally, only the engine can generate electricity to charge the battery.
4. Fuel Cell Electric Vehicles (FCEV): Vehicles driven by fuel cell power generation, where fuel cells convert hydrogen and oxygen into electricity.

2026 Toyota Hilux Travo released, the brand-new exterior and interior are highly anticipated
If you're considering buying a Hilux, honestly, the comprehensive innovations in the ninth generation are worth waiting for. While the current model might still have some advantages in terms of reliability and price, the new model offers significant changes in terms of exterior and interior luxury, tech features, and powertrain options.
Jaecoo J7 VS Honda CR-V, which is the most worthwhile C-Segment SUV to buy
With an exterior that closely resembles a Land Rover, Jaecoo J7's sales experienced several months of rapid growth but have recently slowed down. Perhaps the market is nearing saturation, as Jaecoo J7 has already surpassed the once-dominant Honda CR-V in the C-Segment SUV category.
Perodua Traz VS Ativa, which one is more worth buying?
Traz, as a newly launched mid-sized SUV, offers more spacious room and mainstream power compared to small SUVs, but its pricing appears slightly higher than that of Ativa. Ativa, on the other hand, is Perodua's long-time best-selling small SUV with more affordable pricing and a balanced combination of power and tech features.
Which one is better, Honda City or Toyota Vios?
When choosing a compact sedan, Honda City and Toyota Vios are often two options that make people weigh repeatedly. You might be attracted to the dynamic design of the Vios but also be captivated by the City.
Perodua Traz VS Toyota Yaris Cross, where does the Traz fall short?
Before the official launch of the Perodua Traz, market expectations were actually very high because it shares the same DNGA platform as the Toyota Yaris Cross. However, sharing the same platform does not equate to the same experience, and the Traz's final performance has indeed been disappointing. Perhaps it is precisely because of the delayed launch that it has almost no competitiveness in the current competitive environment.
