JAKARTA - The government targets 200,000 electric motorcycles to be sold for 2023, various steps are being taken, including providing incentives in the form of discounted prices.
However, based on data from the Indonesian Bimotor Industry Association (AISI), from 2017 to 2023 sales of new stun motorbikes amounted to 54 thousand units. This means that this figure is far from expectations.
Hari Budianto as the General Secretary of AISI, said there were several main reasons why public interest was still low, including public doubts about switching to electric vehicles.
"The public has not trusted it, because the reach is still limited to only 60-100 km and one case. The charging time is also long and the price is high," he said, in a discussion of the Indonesian Automotive Journalists Forum (Forwot) with the theme of the 2024 Automotive Market Projection: Opportunities and Challenges, Tuesday, January 16.

That way, he said electric motors are still not competitive compared to motorcycles based on fuel oil or gasoline.
However, he said that there are several steps that the government can take to overcome the problem of electric motorcycles that are empty of interest, one of which is battery standardization.
"It can be with battery standardization, currently there are many battery pack designs in the market and it takes time to consolidate," he concluded.
