Tuk Tuk Thai

The History Of Tuk Tuk in Thailand
The vehicles known as Tuk-Tuk originated in Japan by Daihatsu and it was Thailand who subsequently went into production with these vehicles many years later.Thailand built Tuk-Tuks cost between 95'000 Baht and 150'000 Baht. As far as we know, there are about five to six manufacturers of Tuk Tuks in Thailand.


The original Thai Tuk Tuk is found in many places in Thailand, mostly operating as an open air taxi. Named for the sound made by their small-capacity, two-cycle engines, Tuk Tuks Thai are often found in tourist areas, around markets, or cruising the streets for fares. It is common to see 4 or 5 people in one Tuk Tuk, such as students heading home from school, or a single person riding a Tuk Tuk Thai full of boxes and bags being taken home from the market.Visitors to Thailand are usually very interested and curious about the Tuk Tuk, a locally made and designed three-wheeled vehicle. Tourists are often seen getting their picture taken with the open-air vehicle, and heard swapping tales of their experiences with the charming little machine.

Tuk Tuks were invented in Thailand over 50 years ago, evolving as a motorized relative of the rickshaw. The Tuk Tuk Thai was given its name from the rather rough sound of the early models. The single stroke motor powering the first three-wheelers had a distinctive hum when operating, and the "tuk-tuk-tuk-tuk-tuk" sound became a familiar sound to many in need of quick and convenient transportation in Bangkok. The Tuk Tuk Thai has improved its technology and quality over the years, while emerging as one of Thailand's most recognizable and identifiable symbols.

While Tuk Tuks are most commonly used for transporting passengers, many industrial uses for the vehicle have been initiated with dramatic changes incorporated into new designs and models. The relatively small size of the Tuk Tuk finds the vehicle navigating small alleys on delivery routes, and scooting around narrow factories taking advantage of its agility and slight turning radius.




Since the beginning, They can be modified to have automatic gears, doors, safety belts, air-conditioning, and much more depending on what the customer require.as current models, powered by a 550 CC Japanese made engine, are able to carry a payload of 1000 kilograms.
