Changan Auto Thailand Expands EV Infrastructure and Eyes Used Car Market
Changan Auto is investing 30-40 million baht to establish a CATL battery repair center in Thailand, with plans to expand services across four regions and enter the used electric vehicle market.
According to a report by Prachachat Business, Changan Auto Sales (Thailand) is investing between 30 and 40 million baht to launch a dedicated CATL battery repair center. This facility is designed to support the growing number of Changan electric vehicle (EV) owners across the country.
Beyond battery maintenance, the company has outlined strategic plans to expand its service footprint into four major regions throughout Thailand. Furthermore, Changan is exploring an entry into the used electric vehicle market, aiming to create a comprehensive ecosystem for its customers. By integrating repair services with a secondary market presence, the company intends to strengthen its long-term support for Thai EV users.
For residents and expatriates, this development signals a maturing EV infrastructure, which may improve the long-term reliability and resale value of electric vehicles in the region. However, specific timelines for the regional expansion and the official launch of the used car business remain to be confirmed. As the company continues to develop its local ecosystem, potential buyers and current owners should monitor official announcements regarding the availability of these new services in their specific provinces.
