MAXUS Commercial Launches Full Lineup of Electric Vans and Pickups in Thailand, Targets 2,000 Sales by 2027

MAXUS Commercial officially launched in Thailand at BIG Motor Sale 2026, introducing four commercial electric vehicle models priced from 990,000 baht. The lineup targets transport, logistics, tourism, and specialized vehicle sectors, aiming for 300 sales in the second half of 2026, with plans to increase to 2,000 units in 2027, alongside expanding showrooms and service centers to 12 locations nationwide.

Mr. Songwit Thitipunya, Chairman of Evante Co., Ltd., the official distributor of MAXUS Commercial electric vehicles in Thailand, said that rising energy and transportation costs are major challenges for businesses of all sizes, including SMEs. These companies are not just seeking new vehicles to support operations but are looking for the most cost-effective solutions to reduce expenses and improve efficiency and flexibility.

He added that enhancing company image and long-term value is also important. Given the current economic and energy crises affecting all sectors, the company believes MAXUS Commercial EVs—with their advanced technology, energy efficiency, versatility, and affordable prices—are the answer to helping businesses, especially SMEs, reduce transport costs, improve competitiveness, and achieve growth.


Currently, Thailand's demand for commercial electric vehicles exceeds 16,000 units annually, covering logistics, parcel and goods transport, commercial shuttle services, ambulances, as well as modified and specialized vehicles for travel, official duties, and electric vans for tourism, supported by the parent company.

The parent company is Synergetic Auto Performance Public Company Limited (ASAP). Evante Co., Ltd., appointed as the authorized distributor of MAXUS commercial electric vehicles, is fully prepared to bring the full range of MAXUS EVs into the Thai market.

At the MAXUS Commercial booth at Big Motor Sale 2026, besides showcasing the latest four Commercial EV models, there are special editions designed for transport, tourism, and ambulance services, inspiring new ideas for organizations and businesses to explore diverse vehicle applications.


"MAXUS Commercial aims to lead Thailand's commercial electric vehicle market and be a long-term business partner with customers. Leveraging experience, expertise, and understanding of business costs and operations, supported by the parent company, we provide customers with suitable, cost-effective solutions to reduce costs, improve efficiency, and enhance operational flexibility," said the company.

Mr. Sakdithat Chantrasereekul, Vice Chairman of Evante Co., Ltd., stated that MAXUS Commercial Vehicles offers a lineup covering everything from urban transport to heavy-duty applications. For Big Motor Sale, the company displayed four MAXUS commercial electric vehicle models.

Another highlight at the event is the conversion of eDeliver 5 and eDeliver 7 models into personal passenger vehicles, demonstrating the commercial EV platform's versatility for various applications.

At the event, MAXUS Commercial offered promotions including a 7 kW Wall Charger and three years of emergency assistance for customers who booked and took delivery. Buyers of the eTerron 9 also received comprehensive first-class insurance and additional mandatory insurance coverage.
