Low Cost Green Car (LCGC) (Indonesian: Kendaraan Bermotor Roda Empat Hemat Energi dan Harga Terjangkau (KBH2), lit. 'Energy Efficient and Affordable Four-Wheeler Motor Vehicles') is an Indonesian automobile regulation which exempts low-cost and energy-efficient cars from luxury sales tax to ensure affordability, provided that they are assembled locally with a minimum amount of local components. The introduction of LCGC in Indonesia was meant to encourage the motorcycle owners/public transportation users to be able to afford their first cars, to reduce fuel subsidy[1] and to compete with Thailand-imported cars, thus creating more jobs locally.[2] In some aspects, the regulation is similar to the Japanese kei car category and the Thai Eco Car program which also reduce taxes for small and efficient cars.

Specifications

[edit]

The Ministry of Industry regulates LCGC to conform with the following initial specifications:[3]

  • Petrol engine, displacement capacity of 980–1,200 cc (0.98-1.2 L) with fuel consumption not lower than 20 km/L (5 L/100 km; 56 mpg‑imp; 47 mpg‑US);
  • Research Octane Number (RON) 92 fuel for petrol engines;
  • Diesel engine, displacement capacity up to 1,500 cc (1.5 L) with fuel consumption not lower than 20 km/L (5 L/100 km; 56 mpg‑imp; 47 mpg‑US);
  • Cetane number (CN) 51 fuel for diesel engines;
  • Turning radius below 4.6 m (4,600 mm);
  • Selling price below Rp 95,000,000 (2013) according to the location of the headquarters of the sole agent, with adjustment for automatic transmission being 15%, for safety features 10%, and could be adjusted to inflation;
  • Addition of an Indonesian brand name and logo;
  • Manufacturing facility investment plan.

Regulation

[edit]

In May 2013, the Indonesian government released the Government Regulation (Peraturan Pemerintah) Number 41 Year 2013 about the Luxury Tax of Vehicles concerning LCGC and Low Emission Carbon (LEC) regulations. The main points of the regulation are:[4]

  • 0 percent luxury tax for cars with ICE with a maximum displacement of 1,200 cc for petrol and 1,500 cc for diesel and a minimal fuel consumption of 20 km/L (5 L/100 km; 56 mpg‑imp; 47 mpg‑US).
  • 50 percent luxury tax for green vehicles (hybrid, LPG, electric and others) with a minimal fuel consumption of 28 km/L (4 L/100 km; 79 mpg‑imp; 66 mpg‑US).
  • 75 percent luxury tax for green vehicles (hybrid, LPG, electric and others) with a fuel consumption between 20 and 28 km/L (5 and 4 L/100 km; 56 and 79 mpg‑imp; 47 and 66 mpg‑US).

Investment

[edit]

Toyota, Daihatsu, Suzuki and Honda are set to produce a combined 500,000 LCGCs a year with a predicted total investment of $1.8 billion in Indonesia by the end of 2012, after the government has agreed to exempt the LCGC from the luxury tax to boost domestic sales.[5]

On April 22, 2013, PT Astra Daihatsu Motor officially opened the Karawang Assembly Plant to anticipate LCGC, although the government's LCGC rule had not yet been released. The plant would assemble 4,000 units of the Toyota Avanza and/or Daihatsu Xenia per month in the first run and would produce 10,000 units of cars per month, including the LCGC Toyota Agya and Daihatsu Ayla when the rule had been released.[6]
