The success of electric vehicles is determined not only by the\nability to produce vehicles but also by the interconnectedness of\nquality, safety, energy, financing, maintenance, spare parts, and user\nservices.<\/p>\n
This was stated by the President Director of PT Len Industri\n(Persero), Joga Dharma Setiawan, in Jakarta on Friday (14\/8). \u201cIndonesia\nhas manufacturing, technology, energy, financing, and a growing market.\nThe challenge is to ensure all these capabilities work as one ecosystem\nwith clear role distribution, standards, governance, and proof targets,\u201d\nJoga said.<\/p>\n
Joga explained that the development of Molinas does not rely on a\nsingle product or manufacturer. Molinas connects technological\ncapabilities, manufacturing, components, batteries, financing, energy\ninfrastructure, distribution, after-sales service, and user needs in an\necosystem developed in stages.<\/p>\n
Alva and Gesits are strategic partners in the initial stage as part\nof the strategy to accelerate product and ecosystem development. Their\ninvolvement is not a final composition. Molinas remains open to\ncollaboration with other manufacturers and industry players who meet the\ntechnical, quality, safety, industrial readiness, and governance\nrequirements within the programme framework.<\/p>\n
According to Joga, Len serves as the technical integration lead in\nthe development of Molinas, an open collaboration platform for electric\nmotorcycle manufacturers and ecosystem players. In the inter-party\nframework, Len functions as the lead integrator on technical\naspects.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn the division of roles between parties, the government provides\npolicy direction, Danantara orchestrates ecosystem collaboration, while\nLen coordinates technical integration, standardisation, and partner\nreadiness data alignment,\u201d Joga said.<\/p>\n
The development of Molinas does not negate the industrial\npartnerships Len has previously built. The experience of developing the\nSprint with various industry partners serves as a lesson and strengthens\nLen\u2019s capabilities in the electric vehicle sector.<\/p>\n
Previously, Danantara CEO Rosan Perkasa stated that banks and\nfinancial institutions under Danantara would support Molinas by\nproviding funding with lower interest rates.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe plan to reduce or eliminate the 10% down payment. This step aims\nto increase public interest. We have the ability to accelerate the\nproduction of national electric motorcycles,\u201d Rosan said.<\/p>\n
Rosan, who also serves as Minister of Investment and\nDownstreaming\/Head of BKPM, assessed that the potential market for\nelectric motorcycles in Indonesia reaches US$170 billion, or\napproximately Rp3,036 trillion (at an exchange rate of 17,800).<\/p>\n
Based on this potential, he noted that ten national companies meet\nthe domestic component level (TKDN) criteria set by the Ministry of\nIndustry. \u201cNot only to become champions in Indonesia but also in the\nregion and even the world,\u201d Rosan asserted.<\/p>\n
President Prabowo Subianto inaugurated Molinas and its supporting\necosystem at the production facility of PT Ilectra Motor Group (Alva) in\nCikarang, West Java, on Thursday (13\/8).<\/p>\n
The President praised the courage of private entrepreneurs in taking\nthe risk to produce electric motorcycles amidst competition from\nChinese, Japanese, and South Korean electric motorcycles. According to\nPrabowo, the boldness of entrepreneurs in producing electric motorcycles\nis part of the national interest, particularly to reduce dependence on\nfuel imports.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/indonesia-possesses-manufacturing-capability-for-molinas-says-len-industri-ceo-1786701046", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
