Chalermchai Mahagitsiri, President and CEO of Thoresen Thai Agencies Public Company Limited (TTA), stated, “The use of electric motorcycles is considered a factor in significantly reducing greenhouse gas emissions and fuel consumption. Coupled with government policies pushing Thailand to become an EV hub in the region, the goal is to have ZEV (Zero Emission Vehicle) vehicles account for at least 30% of total vehicle production by 2030, representing a production capacity of approximately 675,000 electric motorcycles (data from the Ministry of Higher Education, Science, Research and Innovation). With initiatives promoting electric motorcycles, environmental conservation trends, and a focus on reducing fuel costs, we are confident that the three recently launched electric motorcycle models under the STROM brand at the Motor Show 2024 will receive an excellent response from customers. These models offer performance that meets the needs of long-distance driving at an accessible price point, supported by government tax incentives. Looking ahead, we plan to launch six electric motorcycle models by 2024, with a target sales volume of approximately 2,000 units.”

"Currently, STROM Company (Thailand) has collaborated with SCG International Corporation Company Limited to develop the first motorcycle charging station in Thailand in the SCG Swap&Charge concept that brings battery swapping and fast charging together in one station. This offers a form of electric charging service for all brands of electric motorcycles. It is expected that the service will be available within the 2nd quarter of 2024, which will help customers receive more convenience," added Lt. Col. M.R. Bhiranupong.
