However, the company has not yet provided further details regarding the specific new vehicle, only confirming that it will be classified as a New Energy Vehicle (NEV).

“We plan to launch the vehicle in the second half of this year. However, I cannot yet provide details about the NEV vehicle. Later, the media will be the first to know about it,” said Director of Sales Centre PT Sokonindo Automobile Cing Hok Rifin in Jakarta on Monday.

CEO of PT Sokonindo Automobile Alexander Barus echoed similar sentiments, stating that the company cannot yet provide further details about the NEV vehicle that will be brought to Indonesia.
