JAKARTA \u2014 The Periklindo Electric Vehicle Show (PEVS) 2026 officially\nopened at the Jakarta International Expo (JIExpo) in Kemayoran on\nThursday (29 October 2026). Under the theme \u201cThe Future of Clean and\nEfficient Mobility\u201d, the event highlights the potential of electric\nvehicles to improve cost efficiency and drive the energy transition.<\/p>\n
Periklindo Chairman Moeldoko said electric vehicles, both in\nIndonesia and globally, had the potential to be a game changer, from\nideas and concepts to technology and energy use.<\/p>\n
He said the shift from internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles to\nelectric vehicles could reduce household expenditure, particularly on\nvehicle energy.<\/p>\n
\u201cThose who usually drive conventional ICE cars might spend Rp6\nmillion, Rp7 million or even Rp8 million a month on petrol. But with an\nEV, they would pay only around Rp800,000,\u201d Moeldoko said at the opening\nof PEVS 2026 at JIExpo, Kemayoran, Jakarta.<\/p>\n
Moeldoko added that the savings from using electric vehicles could be\nredirected to other needs, including education and day-to-day\nexpenses.<\/p>\n
Electric vehicles therefore represent not only a change in transport\ntechnology, but also have the potential to affect how households manage\ntheir finances.<\/p>\n
Moeldoko also highlighted the potential for widespread EV use to\nreduce the burden of national fuel subsidies, which amount to Rp264\ntrillion. He said the shift to electric vehicles could support more\nefficient energy use while creating a cleaner environment for future\ngenerations.<\/p>\n
Minister of National Development Planning and head of the National\nDevelopment Planning Agency (Bappenas) Rachmat Pambudy welcomed the 2026\nPEVS. He said he hoped the exhibition would help the government pursue\nits roadmap for Indonesia\u2019s electric-vehicle industry.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe government continues to support the energy transition and\naccelerate the development of Indonesia\u2019s electric-vehicle ecosystem. We\nare also continually building synergies with all other stakeholders so\nthat our shared goal of making Indonesia a leading player in the global\nelectric-vehicle industry can be achieved,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
PEVS 2026 is being held at Hall C3, JIExpo Kemayoran, from 29 October\nto 1 November 2026. The automotive exhibition focuses on battery\nelectric vehicles (BEVs) and aims to introduce the public to\ndevelopments in electric vehicles through the theme of clean and\nefficient mobility.<\/p>\n
On opening day, Thursday (29 October), the exhibition is open to the\npublic from noon to 7pm Western Indonesia Time. On 30 and 31 October,\nopening hours are 10am to 7pm, while on the final day, 1 November, it is\nopen from 10am to 6pm.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/periklindo-electric-vehicle-show-opens-highlighting-mobility-efficiency-and-energy-transition-1793281852", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
