Indonesian motorcycle and automotive industry exhibitions

Overview

The Indonesian motorcycle and automotive industry continues to drive engagement through large-scale exhibitions and promotional events. Following a positive market trend where domestic sales reached 4.3 million units between January and August 2026, the Indonesian Motorcycle Industry Association (AISI) is preparing for the Indonesia Motorcycle Show (IMOS) 2026 in November.

Recent activity includes GIIAS Semarang 2026, held from September 30 to October 4 at the Muladi Dome UNDIP. The event featured 19 brands, including Honda, Suzuki, BAIC, and BYD. To support the exhibition, the Central Java provincial government offered a 10% reduction in Motor Vehicle Transfer Tax (BBNKB) for new purchases. BAIC highlighted its BAIC T1 electric vehicle with significant discounts, while BYD reported that its electric vehicle population in Central Java has exceeded 3,000 units, representing approximately 37% of the region's total.

The Indonesia Modification & Lifestyle Expo (IMX) 2026, scheduled for October 9–11 at ICE BSD City, focuses on the ‘Next Gen Culture’ theme. The event features the NMAA Ultimate Builder program, showcasing 200 curated modified vehicles ranging from JDM to street racing styles. Project Director Andre Mulyadi stated the program aims to prove Indonesian modification quality has reached an international level.

Simultaneously, stakeholders are advocating for strategic policy shifts to accelerate green mobility. PERIKLINDO has suggested that government incentives should include alternative technologies like Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) to ensure affordability. While the Green Transition Initiative (INDEF GTI) urges prioritizing Battery Electric Vehicles (BEV) over hybrids, the Ministry of Industry has proposed exempting hybrid vehicles from odd-even traffic restrictions. Upcoming industry forums, including the PERIKLINDO Electric Vehicle Conference (PEVC) 2026 and the PERIKLINDO Electric Vehicle Show (PEVS) 2026, are expected to address the electrification of commercial fleets and critical infrastructure needs, such as charging stations and electricity tariff policies.
