Wuling Air ev Tax
Owning a vehicle, of course, must pay tax every year. However, for electric cars, it is certainly different from conventional car taxes, whose annual taxes can reach tens of millions of rupiah. Thanks to the steps taken by the Indonesian government by announching policies for electric cars, the tax costs for Wuling electric cars are now lower.
The government’s policy related to the latest electric cars is stated in Regulation of the Minister of Home Affairs (Permendagri) Number 6 of 2023 concerning the Basis for Imposing Motor Vehicle Tax, Transfer Fees, and Heavy Equipment Taxes in 2023. Through this regulation in 2025, electric cars will be subject to PKB (motor vehicle tax) and Motor Vehicle Transfer Fees (BBNKB) of 0%.
The following is the text of Article 10 of the Regulation of the Minister of Home Affairs (Permendagri) Number 6 of 2023 concerning the Basis for Imposing Motor Vehicle Tax, Transfer Fees, and Heavy Equipment Tax in 2023:
- The imposition of battery-based KBL PKB for people or goods is set at 0 percent of the PKB tax base.
- The imposition of battery-based KBL BBNKB for people or goods is set at 0 percent of the BBNKB tax base.
It is known that in annual tax payments, there are several tax details that must be paid by the tax object, or car owner. These taxes include PKB, Compulsory Contribution to Traffic Accident Funds (SWDKLLJ), STNK administration fees, and TNKB administration fees in the first and fifth years.
From the regulations governing electric cars in Indonesia, it can be concluded that the annual tax paid by electric car owners is only SWDKLLJ each year, then the TNKB administration fee and STNK administration fee in the first and fifth years. For PKB itself, because it gets incentives and only pays 0%, there are no fees to be paid starting in 2025.
The amount of tax that must be paid by the owner of this Wuling Air ev for SWDKLLJ is IDR 143 thousand. Then for the STNK administration fee is IDR 200 thousand, and the TNKB administration fee is IDR 100 thousand in the first and fifth years.

As an electric car produced by Wuling, which is manufactured in Cikarang, West Java, Wuling Air ev has exceeded the threshold of Domestic Component Level (TKDN) of 40% from the government. Thus, Wuling’s first electric car gets a 10% PPN incentive. So if you buy Air ev you will get an incentive of approximately Rp20 million because you only pay 1% PPN.
Here are the prices of Wuling Air ev which has received a 10% PPN incentive from the government:
- Air ev – Long Range from IDR 302 million to IDR 275 million
- Air ev – Standard Range from IDR 246 million to IDR 224 million
- Air ev Lite from IDR 209 million to IDR 190 million
