Surabaya-based Kupprum introduced an Electric Conversion Kit at the GIIAS 2026 auto show that turns a gasoline motorcycle electric in about two hours. The plug-and-play system removes the engine, fuel tank and exhaust and installs a motor, controller and lithium battery pack, keeping the original frame and bodywork. It offers 90km of range per charge, comes in 2kW and 3kW versions, and the company claims up to an 85% cut in running costs versus gasoline.

Looking at the numbers rather than the emotion, two hours of work for 90km of range is genuinely practical as a replacement path. The battery specs — 76V at 25 or 32Ah — are modest, but the point is you don't have to replace the whole vehicle. Technically, this fits how people actually ride in Southeast Asian cities.

How does registration or inspection work after a conversion like this?

Curious how much range actually differs between the 25Ah and 32Ah packs.

90km is more than enough for a local commuter bike.

85% off fuel costs sounds great — I want to know the kit price.

It says 2 hours, but I bet it takes way longer in practice.

Converting existing bikes instead of scrapping them is the realistic path to cutting emissions.
