Thanks for the info. It's for my daughter who is in university in Bangkok. She lives in a condo so I don't think an EV would work, no place to charge.
Looking at the Suzuki Celerio GA. 408,000 baht.

Would have thought an EV was the last thing you would want in Thailand anyway..........Never a year goes past without having to drive through floods somewhere, so no chance of keeping battery dry

Spot on, statts - I doubt they even thought about that when designing EVs.

Oh! ....wait ....

Mitsubishi mirage starts about 475,000 baht.
Bought a second hand one as a run around about 18 month ago and we are very impressed with it. Good MPG also and easy for the wife to park.

Gus, a good friend whose daughter is also in a BKK uni just bought her a Celerio. She loves it, says it’s perfect for city use, easy to drive and park being a small vehicle, economical, well as economical as you can probably get in BKK traffic. She mainly uses it to get to and from campus, seems she has some late course work/classes? but just made the trip back to Chiang Mai where Mum and Dad live. I think he said he paid 450k, it’s not the top of the range but close to I believe..
