The Indonesia International Motor Show (IIMS) 2026 at JIExpo Kemayoran, Jakarta, features new launches of beginner-friendly electric and hybrid cars. Running from February 5-15, 2026, the event showcases models like the BYD Atto 3 Advanced Plus and Suzuki eVitara starting at Rp299 million. Manufacturers such as Bridgestone are also participating with efficient tires for electrified vehicles.
Since the introduction of Formula 1's overhauled 2026 regulations—detailed previously—the new engine formula's heavy emphasis on energy management has sparked controversy. Drivers decry 'Mario Kart' racing, Renault has exited engine development, Honda faces struggles with Aston Martin, and fans voice discontent online. Chinese EV giant BYD eyes an entry to boost its brand.
