Chery Group has announced the production of 20,000 electric vehicles at its Rayong facility within just five months of operation.
According to a report by Khaosod Online Thailand, Chery Group has reached a significant manufacturing milestone in Thailand, producing 20,000 electric vehicles (EVs) at its Rayong plant in only five months. Cedric Sui, President of Chery Group (Thailand), stated that this achievement highlights the company's robust production foundation and its long-term investment strategy within the country.
For residents and those living in Thailand, this development signals a rapid expansion of the local EV ecosystem. The increased availability of locally manufactured vehicles may influence market competition and service accessibility for electric car owners.

While the production volume is confirmed, several details remain to be clarified. The company has not yet provided a specific breakdown of the vehicle models included in this 20,000-unit figure, nor have they detailed how this production capacity will impact future retail pricing or the expansion of charging infrastructure for consumers. As the automotive sector continues to evolve, observers will be watching to see how this manufacturing pace is maintained and whether it leads to broader adoption of electric mobility across the nation.
