JAKARTA - The new electric motorcycle subsidy program of Rp. 7 million is still empty of enthusiasts.

PT Surveyor Indonesia (PTSI) noted that there were already around 7,000 to 8,000 people who registered from the target of 200,000 units in 2023.

For your information, Surveyor Indonesia acts as the manager of the Two-wheeled or Sisapira Electric Motor Vehicle Purchase Information System.

PTSI Commercial Director Saifuddin Wijaya said the government had provided incentives, but it did not have a significant impact on purchases.

"From the 200.000 target, so it is indeed further. It is still far from the target (2023)," he said at the Graha Surveyor Indonesia, Jakarta, Tuesday, November 14.

Regarding the target of distributing 200,000 units, Saifuddin hopes that by the end of 2023 the spike will be quite significant.

So, he continued, they could pursue more distribution targets.

The target is 200,000. It looks like yes, we don't know, hopefully in December there will be 'boom' of their wishes. But again we leave it to the public, how about their interest in electric motorcycles," he said.

It is known, citing from the Sisapira page, there are 5,961 new electric motors that are currently in the registration process. Then, there were 1,978 units of verified electric motorcycles.

Meanwhile, 4,148 units have been distributed. Thus, the remaining quota for the distribution of electricity motor subsidies is 187,913 units.
