Bangkok - Post Report Question and Answers
What kind of vehicle(s) including electric ones do you recommend bringing to post, given the terrain, infrastructure, availability of parts, burglary/carjacking risks, etc.? What kind of car or vehicles do you advise not to bring?
A car is not required. Leave it at home unless you are a very good driver & don't mind driving on the opposite side of the road in intense traffic. I've heard some people like taking the car for trips outside of Bangkok. - Sep 2026
Any kind of vehicle would be fine. Thailand has great highways connecting the entire country. - Mar 2025
If you live downtown, I really don't think you need it. Otherwise, I'd say something you don't mind getting a little dinged up. - Feb 2025
