Jakarta

The price for Wuling Air ev is guaranteed to be cheaper thanks to the ‘subsidy’ from the government. This made Wuling Air ev start being hunted by the public.

Therefore, Wuling Air ev consumers will only be subject to 1% VAT instead of 11%. As a result, the price for Wuling Air ev is now IDR 20 million cheaper.

“For the Standard Range, it saves around Rp. 21 million, for the Long Range it is around Rp. 26 million,” said Wuling Motors Indonesia Brand and Marketing Director Dian Asmahani when confirmed by detikOto.

Wuling Air ev Standard Range is currently priced at IDR 243 million. This means that with a discount of IDR 21 million, the selling price will be IDR 222 million.
