Updated Oct 15, 2020 | Same topic: Automotive Industry Updates

Mitsubishi Motors has joined Suzuki, Mazda, Honda, and Toyota to engage in Thailand's electric vehicle scheme.

Mitsubishi Motors has joined Suzuki, Mazda, Honda, and Toyota in applying to the electric vehicle scheme of Thailand Board of Investment. This scheme offers privileges for car brands to make their all-electric cars, plug-in hybrids, and hybrids in the land of smiles. However, up to now, only Toyota’s got the permit by the Thailand Board of Investment.

Osamu Masuko, CEO of Mitsubishi Motors, promises to introduce their battery EVs once Thailand adopts lots of EV charging service stations. He added, by December, details of the EV models will be clearer.

The CEO is also concerned about the rise of EVs will threaten the popularity of conventional cars which may lead to a wipeout of a large number of their workers.
