Vietnam’s EV Registration Fee Exemption to End in February
越南電動車註冊費減免將於 2 月底結束
Starting March 2025, electric vehicle (EV) buyers in Vietnam will be required to pay a registration fee, ending a three-year exemption introduced to promote eco-friendly vehicles. The exemption, which took effect in March 2022, will expire on February 28, 2025. Under the government’s decree, EV buyers will pay a registration fee equal to half that of fuel-powered vehicles with the same seating capacity for the next two years. Based on current rates, EV registration fees will range from five to six percent, with costs varying depending on the vehicle’s price.
At the five-percent rate, buyers of the Wuling Mini EV, Vietnam’s most affordable electric car, will pay at least VND9.85 million ($391) in fees, while those purchasing high-end models like the Rolls-Royce Spectre will face registration fees of up to VND895 million ($35,445). Unless the government announces new incentives, prospective EV buyers have less than a month to take advantage of the exemption. The market is expected to see a surge in demand as consumers rush to make purchases before the new fees take effect.

Thai Developers Launch Industrial-Tech Ecosystem to Attract Foreign Investment
泰國開發商推出工業科技生態系統 吸引外國投資
Three major property and industrial estate developers—Frasers Property (Thailand), Rojana Industrial Park, and Asia Industrial Estate—have joined forces to establish an “industrial-tech ecosystem” aimed at reinforcing Thailand as a prime investment hub in Southeast Asia. The joint venture, Araya Land Development, will oversee the project, named “Araya – The Eastern Gateway.” Spanning over 4,600 rai along Bang Na-Trat Road near Bangkok, the development will integrate data centers, advanced manufacturing, R&D facilities, logistics parks, and residential areas. With an estimated investment of 50-60 billion baht for land and infrastructure, the project aims to attract foreign direct investment (FDI) and stimulate Thailand’s economy.
Thailand’s industrial estate sector is experiencing growing interest from foreign investors, particularly as geopolitical tensions and trade policies drive businesses to relocate operations to Southeast Asia. The Board of Investment reported a 35% surge in investment applications last year, reaching 1.14 trillion baht—the highest since 2014—led by FDI projects in data centers and cloud services. Singapore emerged as the top investor, followed by China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Japan. With its interconnected industrial ecosystem concept, Araya Land Development hopes to differentiate itself from competitors offering eco-friendly industrial parks and clean energy solutions, positioning Thailand as a key destination for global investment.

BYD to Equip Budget EVs with Autopilot, Challenging Rivals in Smart Driving
BYD將為平價電動車配備自動駕駛技術，挑戰智慧駕駛競爭對手
BYD, the world’s largest electric vehicle (EV) maker, has announced plans to equip at least 21 of its models with its proprietary God’s Eye advanced driver assistance system (ADAS), bringing autonomous driving capabilities to budget-conscious Chinese customers. Even entry-level models like the Seagull hatchback (priced from 69,800 yuan or $9,554) will feature the system, allowing for highway navigation and self-parking. BYD aims to democratize smart driving, with chairman Wang Chuanfu stating that years of research by 5,000 engineers have enabled the company to deliver this technology at an affordable price.
The move comes as China’s EV industry accelerates autonomous driving adoption, with projections that 15 million new cars in 2025 will feature at least Level 2 self-driving capabilities. Despite previously lagging behind rivals like Xpeng and Nio in digital technology, BYD is now pushing forward to catch up in the smart EV race. Analysts at Goldman Sachs expect BYD’s advancement to significantly impact the market, as the cost of ADAS has halved in the past two years. Meanwhile, Tesla, a leading competitor, is preparing to test its Full Self-Driving system in China, charging $8,000 upfront plus a $99 monthly subscription—a stark contrast to BYD’s mass-market affordability strategy.

Thailand Braces for Prolonged EV Price War Amid Surge in Chinese Production
中國產能激增加劇競爭，泰國迎接持久電動車價格戰
Thailand’s electric vehicle (EV) market is set for an extended price war as a surge in Chinese carmakers’ local production fuels intense competition, industry experts warn. EV sales are expected to rise 40% in 2024, surpassing 100,000 units, driven by government incentives requiring local production quotas to avoid hefty penalties. However, with domestic auto sales plummeting due to tight credit conditions and high household debt, analysts fear oversupply and price cuts could strain the industry. Chinese automakers Great Wall Motor and GAC AION have already slashed prices by up to 270,000 baht ($7,900), intensifying the battle for market share.
Despite concerns over a price war, Thailand’s Board of Investment (BOI) has adjusted policies to encourage EV exports and hybrid incentives to stabilize the market. Chinese EV giants BYD, Great Wall Motor, Changan, and GAC AION have collectively invested over 102.7 billion baht ($3 billion) in Thailand, with local production expected to fuel exports beyond Southeast Asia. Failure to meet production targets could result in penalties of up to 400,000 baht per car, according to Electric Vehicle Association of Thailand (EVAT) President Suroj Sangsnit. Meanwhile, BYD, Thailand’s top EV seller, has faced government scrutiny over deep discounts but was cleared of any violations last year.
