The Board of Investment (BoI) is stepping up efforts to encourage newly established Tesla Thailand to invest in the electric vehicle (EV) business, part of efforts to grow the local EV industry.
Narit Therdsteerasukdi, secretary-general of the BoI, said Tesla may be interested in an EV investment project because the government has announced a clear policy to promote the new-generation cars.
He was speaking at a ceremony that officially launched two models of Tesla cars -- the Model 3, priced between 1.75 and 2.3 million baht, and the Model Y, with prices ranging from 1.95 to 2.5 million baht.
