Spokesperson for FTI's automotive industry division Surapong Paisitpattanapong said export climbed 11.42% in February from a year earlier, after January's 24.28% rise.
Domestic sales, however, dropped 3.94% in February from a year earlier, after January's 5.58% fall, due to an unexpected sharp decrease in truck sales, he said.
In January, automobile production rose 4.02% year-on-year. Thailand is a regional vehicle production and export base for some of the world's top carmakers, including Toyota and Honda./.
