United E-Motor Prepares to Boost Electric Motorcycle Production Capacity

JAKARTA - PT Terang Dunia Internusa Tbk (UNTD), the holder of the United E-Motor brand, observes an acceleration in societal behavioural shifts towards fuel-efficient and environmentally friendly vehicles. This is inseparable from the rising issues of fuel oil (BBM) prices.

This momentum is expected to drive a surge in demand for electric vehicles starting from the second quarter of 2026. To capture this opportunity, the company will implement expansion measures from the production side.

UNTD is preparing a total investment of around Rp 400 billion, allocated Rp 250 billion for land acquisition and factory facilities, and Rp 150 billion for factory development. The funding for this expansion will come from third parties, either through banking or strategic investors.

“We see a clear shift in society, and UNTD wants to be at the forefront in meeting those needs through greater and more integrated production capacity readiness,” he said on Wednesday (8/4/2026).

Meanwhile, UNTD Director Andrew Mulyadi explained that the company projects Q2 2026 as the starting point for more significant demand increases.

“Therefore, the expansion to be carried out is not just about increasing capacity, but also a long-term strategy to strengthen UNTD’s position in the national electric vehicle industry. Support from banking and investors becomes an important foundation in realising this plan,” said Andrew.

Regarding production, UNTD’s current production capacity stands at 50,000 units per month for bicycles and electric bicycles, with a composition of 40,000 bicycle units and 10,000 electric bicycle units. Meanwhile, the electric motorcycle production capacity reaches 5,000 units per month.
