Mr. Jaturont Komolmis, the Chief Operation Officer of Grand Prix International Public Company Limited, as the Vice Chairman of Bangkok International Motor Show, revealed that “The 44th Bangkok International Motor Show” is once again the successful event in all aspects. The number of Automobile and Motorcycle manufacturers, and business operators participating in the event has increased from the previous year.

About 870 units are Electric Motorcycles (Thai Honda Co., Ltd., a manufacturer and distributor of Honda motorcycles do not wish to inform the volume of reservations within the event) The factors that attract consumers’ attention to visit and express their intention to reserve the vehicles at the event are larger than expected. One of the important factors is from the operators bringing more than 50 new models of cars including both minor change and model change, along with electric vehicles to exhibit at the event. This helps encourage visitors to come to the event tremendously. While various measures of the Ministry of Public Health on COVID-19 have been relaxed, together with the people being thoroughly vaccinated enabling economic activities, as a result, the economy began to recover and people began to have more confidence in their purchases.
In addition, at this Bangkok International Motor Show, aside from the number of automobile and motorcycle reservations that have grown beautifully, the popularity of boats and jet skis is also growing exponentially. In consequence, about 143 boats and jet skis are booked in the event — 126 units from Siam Watercraft, the distributor of Cranchi, Monterty, and Seadoo, and 17 units from YAMAHA. Mr. Jaturont also revealed that throughout the past period, the Bangkok International Motor Show always receives good confidence from automobile companies, motorcycle companies and entrepreneurs in the automotive business to operate in the event showcasing and exhibiting the automotive technology to new innovations, along with investing a wonderful amount of money in building booths and displaying spectacular shows all along. However, the success that happened this time is probably not only the success of the organizing committee. It is a success that has come from the support of Thai people who have contributed to promoting both the automotive industry and Thailand to be known that Thai people can do as well as foreigners. This confirms that we are the number one automobile show in Thailand, the number one of ASEAN, and truly comparable to the world-class automobile shows.
For the event of “The 45th Bangkok International Motor Show 2024” will take place between March 27 – April 7, 2024 at Impact Challenger 1-3, Muang Thong Thani.
