History

The Bima nameplate was first registered in 2012, along with the Rajawali SUV.[9] Esemka claimed that they would be partnered with Chinese automakers Chery and Foday to build the car at the time. The Bima was proposed to be a low-cost pickup truck equipped with a 1.1 L petrol engine and would be targeted to rural farmers.[10][11] Later in 2013, 40 units of the Bima and Rajawali had been delivered.[12]
