Footage shows cars on display at the Bangkok International Motorshow 2024 on Thursday.

Visitors were able to see the latest models from 37 different car brands and 12 motorcycle manufacturers.

Electric Vehicle (EV) makers showing their products include BYD, Aion, Changan, Neta, Honri, Pocco, Nex Point, Firebright, and the Vietnamese brand VinFast.

EV motorcycles made by Rapid, Felo, Lyva, Zeeho, and CF Moto were also on show.

The show comes amid a slump in domestic car sales, falling 26 per cent in February compared with a year earlier, according to the Federation of Thai Industries.

However, analysts said they are bullish about the industry's long-term prospects.

Thailand has the tenth largest automative industry in the world, accounting for around 12 per cent of GDP and an annual output of more than two million vehicles.

Japanese giants Toyota and Honda have long established bases in the country while newer EV manufacturers are also utilising the existing infrastructure to open factories.

Chinese manufacturer BYD has began producing its Dolphin and ATTO 3 models at a new plant near Bangkok while industry analyst Zhang Xiang said that 'Thailand is a springboard for China's overseas expansion'.
