Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto unveiled the Cakra NX1 electric scooter as part of the country's Molinas national electric motorcycle program. The scooter runs a 3.3kWh battery for up to 140km of range and a top speed of 80km/h, with maker Indika Group's production already reaching 20,000 units at the announcement.

Reading the spec sheet, the Cakra NX1's 3.3kWh battery gives it a genuinely usable 140km range and 80km/h top speed. The ALVA intelligent charging system doing 0-100% in about four hours, with a boost charge under 25 minutes for 10-50%, gets my pulse up. I didn't expect a national project to be this dialed in.

A government leading the charge on building bikes — kind of a moving moment, honestly.

Wonder how this stacks up against Vietnam's or Thailand's electric bikes.

For something with the president himself unveiling it, 80km/h top speed feels kind of underwhelming, no?

Wait, does Molinas literally mean 'national electric motorcycle'?

140km out of a 3.3kWh pack is pretty efficient for the battery size.

20,000 units already produced is a wild pace.
