Thailand's automotive industry reports that imported EVs now account for 62.58% of EV sales (125,411 units), while domestic EV production reached only 46,924 units in the first 7 months of 2025. The gap reflects unfair tax treatment that favors imports over locally-produced EVs and combustion vehicles. Industry leaders are calling on government to restructure excise tax to level the playing field, noting that domestic production supports local employment and supply chains. Meanwhile, pickup truck sales have collapsed 60% due to tightened lending and weak economic growth (1.9% in Q2).
