Bangkok - Thailand Motor International Expo (2020) ran from Decem-ber 3-16 at the Impact Challenger Arena at Muang Thong Thani. And for the first time, the event showcased boats and leisure marine companies through the “Join Boat Platform”. Participants included two of SEA Yachting’s favorite companies, Simpson Marine and the Island Spirit Group. Also on display were nautical toys from ANNA, Kawaski & SEADOO as well as presentations from Bangkok Cruises, Boat Lagoon Yachting, Mr. Boatman & Petra Marine.

The motor expo itself was fabulous with the best names in cars (Aston Martin, Audi, BMW, Jag-uar, Lexus, Mercedes-Benz, MG, Porsche, & Rolls-Royce), and motorbikes (Ducati, Harley-Davidson, Royal Enfield, Stallions, & Triumph) on display.

There was also an exhibition of vintage vehicles. Hundreds of cars were bought and test drove during the event and with the amount of economic activity going on in the arena, you’d be hard-pressed to know there was a global pandemic going on outside the exhibition’s gates.

Hopefully, the boat show will become a permanent fixture of the event enabling more Thais to participate in and learn about the wonders of aquatic life.
