The Indonesian electric two-wheeler market is losing momentum. According to industry players, demand has fallen because the government has not yet clarified whether incentives will be renewed, a key factor in keeping battery-powered scooters and motorcycles affordable.
For the industry, the risk is twofold: fewer sales today and less confidence tomorrow. In a country where motorcycles are the most common means of transport, delays in support measures could also slow the spread of cleaner mobility.
