TANGERANG - At the 2024 Gaikindo Indonesia International Auto Show (GIIAS), PT Sokoindo Automobile as the sole agent of brand holder from DFSK and Seres, featured the latest EV ranks, one of which was Seres 9 Concept.

This automotive manufacturer from China has determined that this model will represent the next step in terms of electrification in the Indonesian market. However, this model has not been sold in the near future.

Director of Sales Center of PT Sokoindo Automobile Cing Hok Rifin, said that the reason the model has not been sold in the country is because the Chinese SUV market has a fairly long indent period.

"We still haven't sold Seres 9 because in China this model has been ordered 110,000 units and there is an indent of 6 months even though we have seven factories in China," said Cing Hok Rimin to the media at ICE BSD, Tangerang, Thursday, July 25.

Although it has not been able to confirm the launch date in Indonesia, Cing Hok Rimin said that his party is trying to produce this product locally (CKD) so that the model can compete at competitive prices.

"We will inform you later and CKD will produce the date, because otherwise the price will soar," added Cing Hok Rifin.

He also said that Seres 9 will enter the premium market and is trying to reduce the price so that it is not too high for consumers.

"Seres 9 itself costs if converted to more than Rp1 billion in China because it is in the premium class," he explained.

The presence of Seres 9 Concept at GIIAS is said to be aimed at a market survey of this vehicle. Equipped with AI (Artificial Intelligence) technology and more than 300 smart features, Seres 9 Concept offers the concept of a sophisticated, safe, and comfortable full-size electric SUV.

Its flagship features include Intelligent Projection Headlight, Width Indicator, One Touch Open and Close Electric Suction Door with Millimeter Wave Radar, Air Suspension Heavy Adjustment Range, Zero Gravity Seat, and Privacy Shield.

The Seres 9 Concept exterior is modern and premium, with a length of 5,230 mm, a width of 1,999 mm, a height of 1,800 mm, and a wheelbase of 3,110 mm, making it one of the longest cars in its class. This car is equipped with tires measuring 265/40 R22 (front) and 285/40 R22 (backward) and Panoramic Roof.

This premium SUV has a distance of up to 630 km (based on WLTC), with an acceleration of 0-100 km/hour in 4.3 seconds.

Thanks to the EREV (Extended Range Electric Vehicle) category, Seres 9 has an internal combustion engine that functions as a generator, so the combination distance reaches 1,239 km (based on the WLTP measurement method).
