JAKARTA - Minister of Industry Agus Gumiwang Kartasasmita has not been able to ensure the implementation of the rules for providing incentives for the purchase of cars or electric motors, which will be carried out by the government.
According to him, this is still in the finalization and discussion stage with all relevant parties. "(The implementation), right, is being discussed with the government," said Agus when met at his office, Monday, December 19. Furthermore, he said, the rules for providing incentives are not yet included in the details of the 2023 State Budget. However, the government may take other policies, which are similar to this. "Indeed, there is no (fiscal policy), but, right, there are other policies that we can take. In the 2023 budget, there is no," he said. When asked further about the implementation of the incentives for electric vehicles, Agus is reluctant to provide meaningful answers. "Later, I can't open it yet, yes," he said.
Previously, the Government was finalizing incentive rules for the purchase of cars or electric motors. Later, these incentives will be given to every purchase of electric vehicles, both cars and motorcycles, which are produced by companies that have factories in Indonesia. The incentive is expected to provide various benefits for the development of the electric vehicle industry. According to the plan, the incentives to be given for the purchase of electric cars are around Rp. 80 million, and for hybrid-based electric cars around Rp. 40 million. Meanwhile, for the type of two-wheeled vehicle, the government will provide incentives of around Rp. 8 million. Then, motor conversion to electric motors gets an incentive of around Rp. 5 million.
