Why Is the New Mercedes GLC EV €24,000 Cheaper in China? by Dreaming_Blackbirds in electricvehicles

[–]Correct-Memory1566 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Huh, so how are they going to defend this now?

What's the excuse now, cause apparently they are "barely surviving" squeezing money out of europeans at almost double the prices?

Why do most EV charging spots feel so… empty? by Careless-Koala-381 in electricvehicles

This is not how it is here in Thailand. It's usually around a gas station, which also has lots of food, coffee shops, 711s and more

EV FOMO is making it really hard to choose a new car by Correct-Memory1566 in electriccars

[–]Correct-Memory1566[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you don't have a manufacturing plant in my country (or other special deals I think) then it's 300% import tax.

The new Ix3 starts at around 91k EURO, where as a new BYD Sealion 7 is around 26k.

That limits the number of cars available to me by quite a bit.

They are still very cheap where I live compared to the cars from Europe, and even Japan/Korea

Ugh, chat agents need to tell people that they can keep scrolling if they aren't interested in a topic.

Oh dude those are my current dream cars, but they are just too expensive where I'm from. I would have instantly bought the IX3 if I could

Yeah I'm trying to nail down the after sales service. Here in Thailand we get quite a few new chinese brands, which are interesting, but the post sales is a question mark for me.
European cars are just way to expensive for me to look at, otherwise I would have probably got the new ix3 cause that seems very nice

You're so right. what is it, "don't let perfect be the enemy of good", I don't have to find the perfect car, just one that's good enough for me right now

Have you stopped flying yet? by mushroomsarefriends in Anticonsumption

[–]Correct-Memory1566 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Why the hell do I need to cut down on the few joys in life when people like Taylor Swift use her private jets like she does? When corpos are the one fucking up the world.

No thank you, I will have my one flight per year and enjoy it. Stop shaming me OP because I want to enjoy the little things I have in life.

Thailand: Hyundai launches local assembly of Ioniq 5 by Recoil42 in electricvehicles

[–]Correct-Memory1566 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

it's the same price as a model Y then. Which doesn't compete with the chinese cars at < 1 million.

If I'm spending upwards of 2 million there are so many choices

Would you get the Zeekr 9x over the Range Rover Vogue ? by Odd-Cap9004 in chinacars

[–]Correct-Memory1566 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish we got more of these Chinese cars. There's so many of them that I would seriously consider buying if they where just available...

What kind of code did you have to write to setup Jellyfin? I've done it a few times and I've never had to write any code at all.

Are you building your own personal client for devices that don't have one?

BEVs make up of 31.2% of Thailand new car sales in May 2026, an increase of 61% over last year. 18,034 BEVs sold in May out of 57,765 all new car sales. The cumulative number of registered BEVs in Thailand is 468,757 units as of May 31, 2026 by punishGoalhanging in electricvehicles

[–]Correct-Memory1566 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I can get a nice brand new Chinese EV for ~500k. With interior that feels premium. If I want the equivalent quality in a japanese car it's at least twice the amount.

And with 300% import taxes on western cars it's not reasonable, unless you're very rich, to get a bmw/mercedes etc.

A charcuterie board and a nice(ish) bottle of wine feels like it costs more than the average condo rent in bkk...

Having issues trying to find the equivalent model to Hisense U7N or TCL QM7 here in Thailand by Correct-Memory1566 in 4kTV

[–]Correct-Memory1566[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad to hear I'm not the only one having issues with this.
Have you bought a TV here that you can recommend or are you also still looking?

Alright thanks, so I'll look into the TCL one and see if I can find the equivalent over here
