Indonesia economic growth in 2018 is targeted to reach 5.4% which is considered very realistic. Improvements occur in the commodity sector (palm oil, cacao, etc), manufacturer expansion, coal, and petroleum price is getting high. On the other hand, the investment for commodities have been rising high. The aggressive of infrastructure development in some remote areas also will drive equitable economic growth. This is good news for automotive industry to supply more Indonesia areas.
In terms of market size, Indonesia is the Biggest Car and Bike Market in SE Asia. Indonesia accounts for about one-third of total annual car sales in ASEAN. Indonesia not only has a large population (over 260 million populations) but is also characterized having a rapid expanding middle class. Together, these two factors create a powerful consumer force. The ratio of cars to the population in Indonesia (12:1) is still low compared with other countries in this region. Therefore, still provides a potential market for car encouraging producers to increase their production capacity.
