evchu’s take · The Score
Joint 6th of 34 compact SUVs on the evchu Score. Strongest on value.
Every EV on sale with a list price and a WLTP range is scored 0–100 against every other on value, range, cost to own, charging and performance. 234 trims scored; the median is 52.
How the evchu Score works
Every EV on sale in Thailand is scored 0–100 on five things — value, range, cost to own, charging speed and performance — by ranking it against every other EV in our database. Each metric is a real, verified figure, so a score of 90 means it beats 90% of EVs on that measure. The headline number is a balanced blend, rewarding all-rounders over one-trick specs.

Registered in Thailand
686 GWM Ora 5 EV were registered in Thailand in October 2026.
5,048 registered in total, across 5 months of official data from June 2026. The last 12 months account for 5,048.
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. This model’s figures are computed: DLT files its electric and hybrid versions under one name, so each month is the brand’s official EV count minus its other electric models.evchu’s take · In the press
