The 2026 edition of the Bangkok International Motor Show is currently underway, and we have seen several videos of the launches from the event online. Some of the cars being unveiled at the Bangkok Motor Show are very important not just for Thailand but also for the Indian market. Some of these models are expected to make their way to India soon. Here is a list of such cars from the Bangkok Motor Show that are likely to launch in India.
The Toyota Land Cruiser FJ was unveiled at the motor show. The SUV is expected to come to India by 2028, and it will likely be manufactured here as well. The FJ has already been launched in Thailand, where it is currently more expensive than the Fortuner. However, in India, Toyota is expected to position it below the Fortuner.
The Toyota Land Cruiser FJ measures 4,574 mm in length, 1,855 mm in width, and 1,960 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2,580 mm. It offers a ground clearance of 215 mm. These dimensions make it significantly shorter than the Fortuner and slightly shorter than the Mahindra Scorpio-N.
It gets a rugged, boxy exterior design and a Land Cruiser Prado-inspired interior. It will be offered with a 2.7-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine that produces 163 PS and 246 Nm of torque. It will be available with both manual and automatic transmission options, along with a part-time 4WD system.
After being spotted on Indian roads, the Atto 2 was also showcased at the Bangkok Motor Show. The SUV is already on sale in international markets. The Atto 2 will sit below the Atto 3 and will serve as BYD’s entry-level electric SUV in India. The exterior design of the Atto 2 is inspired by the Atto 3.
Like most BYD models, it gets a minimalistic yet premium-looking cabin with plenty of storage space, a rotating touchscreen infotainment system, a digital instrument cluster, ventilated and powered front seats, ambient lighting, USB Type-C charging ports, and more. The model showcased at the motor show did not have a panoramic sunroof and some other features.
It will be powered by a 45.1 kWh battery pack that generates 175 PS and 290 Nm of torque and offers a claimed range of 380 km.
The next car showcased at the Bangkok Motor Show is the Chery iCar V23. This model has been spotted testing in India, and JSW is expected to bring it to our market soon. It is a boxy-looking all-electric SUV with design elements inspired by the Toyota FJ Cruiser, Jeep Wrangler, and even the Land Rover Defender.
The SUV is built on a dedicated EV platform and offers a minimal yet practical cabin. It comes with several storage spaces on the centre console, under the armrest, and beneath the seats. It will feature a large 15.4-inch touchscreen, which may also serve as the instrument cluster.
Internationally, this electric SUV is available with 59.93 kWh and 81.76 kWh battery pack options, offering a claimed range of 400–550 km. The smaller battery variant comes with RWD, while the larger battery version gets AWD.
This is likely to be one of the more premium models that JSW will introduce in India. The Jaecoo J5 is expected to be a 7-seater SUV with a premium interior and an exterior design that resembles several Range Rover models.
This EV has also been spotted testing on Indian roads recently. It will come with a 13.2-inch vertical touchscreen, a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster, ventilated and powered front seats, a panoramic sunroof, multi-zone automatic climate control, and more.
It is powered by a 58.9 kWh battery pack that offers a claimed range of around 402 km. The SUV generates 211 PS of power and 288 Nm of torque.
