        "summary": "Finance Minister Purbaya Yudhi Sadewa has proposed introducing incentives for electric motorcycles this year, targeting an initial 6 million units with subsidies of around Rp5 million per unit, though the amount may adjust. The programme, still under review, will be discussed with the Industry Minister and Coordinating Minister for the Economy before reporting to President Prabowo Subianto. This initiative supports the government's plan to convert 120 million conventional motorcycles to electric ones over three to four years, accelerating clean energy transition and reducing fuel subsidy burdens.",
        "content": "<p>Finance Minister Purbaya Yudhi Sadewa has proposed a programme of\nincentives for electric motorcycles to be implemented this year. The\nincentives are planned to be rolled out in stages. In the initial phase,\nthe programme is targeted to cover around 6 million motorcycle\nunits.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI propose that we provide (incentives) for new ones first. The first\nbatch is 6 million motorcycle sales, but not all at once. We will look\nat it in stages. But for the new ones, we will try to create the\nprogramme,\u201d said Purbaya during a media briefing in Jakarta on Friday\n(24\/4\/2026).<\/p>\n<p>Purbaya explained that the programme is still in the study phase and\nwill be discussed further with Industry Minister Agus Gumiwang\nKartasasmita and Coordinating Minister for the Economy Airlangga\nHartarto.<\/p>\n<p>The initial study points towards providing a subsidy of around Rp5\nmillion per unit. However, the amount is still subject to potential\nchanges as the policy is finalised.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt has already been discussed. The number of motorcycles to be\nsubsidised will still be considered, and we want to show what it will\nlook like. But clearly, I will first discuss it with the Industry\nMinister, the Coordinating Minister (for the Economy), and we will\nreport back to the President in accordance with the instructions at that\ntime,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Purbaya stated that the incentives are being prepared as part of the\ngovernment\u2019s plan to replace all conventional motorcycles in Indonesia\nwith electric motorcycles.<\/p>\n<p>This policy aligns with the government\u2019s target to gradually convert\naround 120 million petrol-fuelled motorcycles to electric ones over the\nnext three to four years.<\/p>\n<p>The programme, driven by President Prabowo Subianto, aims to\naccelerate the transition to clean energy while reducing the burden of\nfuel subsidies.<\/p>",
