evchu’s take · Buy or wait, today

Buy now on one model.

  • LuminBuy now

    Buy before 01 Jan 2027 — import excise set to rise. Excise on imported EVs is set to rise from 10% to 35% on 01 Jan 2027, and this car is imported. How much of the rise reaches the price is not known; passed on in full it would add up to ฿214,000.

Then: Monitor on the other one.

The verdict reads the cheapest trim's list-price history, announced facelifts and policy changes. Monitor means no reason to wait and no deal to rush: buy when you're ready.
