Mr. Pornthep Tirasuntrakul, Executive Vice President, Head of Krungsri Auto Marketing Division, Bank of Ayudhya PCL, stated, "The "Krungsri Auto Ultimate Test Drive & Ride" event designed to address the insights and pain points of both consumers and automotive brand partners, creating a seamless and positive experience in buying and selling new cars. We understand that test-driving a vehicle is a critical step in purchasing decisions. However, there are several limitations, such as the limited number of models available for test drives, the inconvenience of traveling to multiple showrooms, and the preparations required before applying for financing. These steps can take several days, while automotive brand partners and dealers also face high costs in organizing such activities."

"In addition to delivering an exceptional experience for consumers, this initiative also extends Krungsri Auto's B2B marketing strategy, aiming to seamlessly connect consumers with business partners, including automotive brands and dealers, within a unified ecosystem. This creates shared value, benefiting all parties in terms of sales, business opportunities, and consumer behavior insights that can be used to develop more targeted marketing strategies in the future. Receiving the Excellence in B2B Marketing at the Marketing Excellence Awards 2025 is a proud milestone for Krungsri Auto, reflecting our commitment to elevating marketing standards and creating sustainable value for Thailand's automotive industry," Mr. Pornthep added.
