10,723 registered in total, across 16 months of official data from July 2025. The last 12 months account for 8,573.

Compared over 12-month windows, not month to month: Thai registrations are seasonal — January runs about twice an average month, because Motor Expo sales are registered then. Source: Department of Land Transport new-car registration statistics, matched by model to evchu’s catalogue.
