Not D-Max EV, Isuzu Will Show Off Elf Electricity At GIIAS 2024

Isuzu Elf (Isuzu)

JAKARTA - PT Isuzu Astra Motor Indonesia as the agency holding the Isuzu brand in Indonesia, plans to bring a model of electric vehicles to the 2024 Gaikindo Indonesia International Auto Show (GIIAS).

Not a few suspect that the electric D-Max will be brought, because the model has been introduced in Japan and will launch next year. But not the model mentioned above, but Elf Electric.

"We will bring the type of vehicle Elf, because Elf has electricity in Japan has been mass production," said Marketing Communication Manager of PT Isuzu Astra Motor Indonesia (IAMI) Puti Annisa Moeloek to the media crew, Tuesday, May 21.

Annisa said the vehicle was still being studied for compatibility in Indonesia. Not without reason, but talking about commercial electric vehicles is different from passenger.

"If commercial is definitely different, for example, specifications in Japan will not be the same in Indonesia. It will definitely be modified again depending on need and style," he added.

Bringing environmentally friendly vehicles to the GIIAS 2024 event later also wants to prove that Isuzu is very serious in this segment, because it already has a model globally.

"We want to see that there is a model of electric vehicles, and if we want to launch them in Indonesia it will not be that easy first. We want to be responsible so that consumers don't use them again," he said.

Currently, Isuzu is also conducting a study with the government to strengthen joint goals in terms of presenting environmentally friendly commercial vehicles in Indonesia.

"Don't let us learn what this means, but the government wants it to be like this (different). So, we did study together," he concluded.
