Best-selling Electric Car Brand From China Ready To Shake Indonesia, Launches Next Week

U9. (Doc. BYD Global)

JAKARTA - BYD, a Chinese car manufacturer now recognized as Tesla's serious competitor, will officially launch its products in Indonesia next week. This news was conveyed through an invitation received by VOI editors.

In the invitation it was written, "January 2024 will be the debut for BYD to enliven the passenger vehicle market in Indonesia as well as strengthen Indonesia as part of the global BYD long-term business expansion map."

BYD is committed to bringing the latest New Energy Vehicle (NEV) technology to Indonesia, which will contribute to building an environmentally friendly vehicle ecosystem. This step is in line with the government's efforts to reduce exhaust emissions. BYD will hold a press conference and brand launching as part of its presence.

Previously, several BYD models, such as BYD Dolphin, BYD Seal, and BYD Atto 3, have been seen on the streets of Jakarta, which are suspected of being undergoing trials. This discovery is also reinforced by images uploaded on the Instagram page @indra_fathan, which shows BYD cars being transported by trucks on the JOR toll road.

With BYD's presence, the electric car market in Indonesia is increasingly in the spotlight. We are waiting for whether BYD will bring special innovations that can hit the electric car market in Indonesia.
