RiderTua.com – Hybrid cars still record quite good sales results in Indonesia. It’s just that when compared to electric cars, this type of car does not receive incentives or subsidies. Hybrid cars can actually still sell quite a lot without price reductions. However, most manufacturers launch their newest HEV models abroad.
Hybrid Cars Don’t Get Incentives Yet
The environmentally friendly car market is still quite busy with the many new models released in Indonesia. Especially hybrid cars are one of consumers’ favorite types of cars, even though the average selling price is still above IDR 500 million. But with the increasing number of choices on the market, many consumers are increasingly interested in the model.
However, unlike electric cars, hybrid cars do not have incentives or subsidies provided. Even though other countries such as Thailand have provided price relief like this for HEV and BEV models, both locally assembled and imported models. So it’s not surprising why several manufacturers launched their environmentally friendly models first in this country, for example Mitsubishi released the Xpander HEV a few months ago.
Sales Are Quite High
Until now, many people are asking when hybrid car incentives can be implemented in Indonesia. But until now there has been no follow-up to this news, and they have not even provided further information. Even though a number of manufacturers want HEV models to get price reductions so they can sell better.
If you look at it, sales of hybrid cars are quite high compared to electric cars, even though BEV models receive incentives. When compared with this type of model, hybrid cars are still quite popular because they are affordable and easy to maintain. Not to mention the more choices on offer, it’s no surprise that sales reached 50k units last year.
