JAKARTA - The electric car market in Indonesia is starting to get excited after various manufacturers launched many new models with varying prices ranging from Rp200 million to billions.

However, based on a survey from Populix, which is indeed a data provider and research service company, there are quite interesting figures about the price of electric cars that are attractive to consumers.

The survey was conducted from March 15 to 25 with a total of 350 respondents, both men and women aged 17-45 years, with a survey duration of about 15 minutes.

As a result, 6 percent of respondents were at Rp. 100 million, 25 percent was at Rp. 200 million, 39 percent was at Rp. 400 million and 11 percent at more than 400 million. Based on data above Populix detailed the price of Rp. 250 million to mean score.

"This price is interesting, because each electric car has quality and level, based on the results of our survey, the average is at Rp. 200-300 million," said Populix CEO & Co-Founder Timothy Astandu, at a media gathering at Bale Nusa, South Jakarta, Thursday, June 6.

Based on the results of the same survey, there is also an interesting distance for consumers. Where, 13 percent of respondents were below 100 km, 26 percent of respondents were 200 km, 26 respondents were 300 km, 14 percent 500 km and 16 percent more than 500 km.

"If the distance is estimated, it can reach 300 km, so there is still fear to take the car out of town, and it is still widely used in the city," he added.

The survey results also revealed the purpose of using electric cars, based on data that 71 percent visited families, 69 percent traveled in the city, 67 percent worked, 63 percent picked up friends or family and 60 percent spent on daily necessities.

So, referring to the data above the ideal price of Rp250 million, with a distance of 300 km.
