1. Price War: Frugal Showdown between Jaecoo J5 EV and Chery Tiggo Cross CSH

With a budget of Rp 200 million to Rp 300 million and a desire for a Chinese-brand SUV, there are now more choices than ever. For an electric SUV, you can opt for the Jaecoo J5 EV, but if you prefer a hybrid only, you could look at the Chery Tiggo Cross CSH. Both brands are part of the Chery Group umbrella from Wuhu, China.

There are reports circulating on social media about rising prices for BYD Atto 1 electric cars. The posts claim a price adjustment for the entry-level BYD EV for both variants.

The luxury car market is not solely about new units. In the supercar segment, the second-hand market has its own demand, especially for buyers who want to enter Ferrari with a more varied range. Seeing the potential, Indonesia’s official Ferrari dealer, Ferrari Eurokars, has introduced the Ferrari Approved programme. This is the manufacturer’s official used-car certification scheme, ensuring each unit continues to meet Ferrari’s technical standards and quality.

Fuels economy is a major concern for car owners, especially amid fluctuating fuel prices and growing mobility needs. Many drivers have yet to realise that how efficiently one drives is heavily influenced by daily driving habits, not only the engine condition.

The BYD Atto 3 has attracted global attention after reports that it survived a ballistic missile blast in Jerusalem on Sunday (1 March 2026). The vehicle reportedly maintained cabin integrity, and the high-voltage battery did not catch fire. According to Carnewschina, authorities said the car lay near a deep crater. Nevertheless, the cabin structure did not collapse and there was no thermal runaway in the high-voltage battery.
