Indonesia getting serious is a story you can't overlook from a data standpoint. If a huge market where motorcycles are an essential of daily life swings toward electrification, both production scale and charging infrastructure will move fast. It could even change the global cost structure of electric motorcycles. Whether policy, infrastructure, and product line up is the key, but setting emotion aside, I consider Indonesia's trajectory one of the most important indicators for where electrification is headed.

Given the traffic and heat over there, a quiet electric scooter honestly seems like a good fit.

Just a basic question, but where do you actually charge an electric locally?

Being one of the world's largest motorcycle markets, how many million units does Indonesia sell a year?

Cheap gas scooters are just too strong locally, a pricey electric won't sell.

Right, Honda's Cub lineage is deeply rooted there, so it's a tough price war.

If Indonesia moves, electrification across Southeast Asia would advance all at once, a good trend.

How many times has 'getting serious' been said now? Feels like it comes up every year, but is it actually catching on?
