Wuling’s first compact electric car, designed for daily reliability and urban practicality
Tangerang, November 26, 2024 – At the Mandiri Utama Finance Gaikindo Jakarta Auto Week (MUF GJAW) 2024, Wuling Motors (Wuling) presents its flagship electric vehicle, the Wuling Air ev, a model that has become increasingly popular across Indonesia. First launched globally in Indonesia in August 2022, the Air EV captured attention with its compact design and has since transformed into a top choice for urban residents seeking practicality and sustainability. Its success is reflected in its widespread adoption across the country and recognition from various awards.
“Air ev is Wuling’s answer to Indonesia’s need for eco-friendly and affordable mobility. Since its launch, it has received an overwhelmingly positive response, and with the trust of the people, Air ev continues to achieve significant sales, cementing its position in Indonesia’s automotive industry,” said Arief Sutrisno, Brand Strategy Manager of Wuling Motors.
Since its debut, the Wuling Air ev has marked remarkable success as one of the pioneers in eco-friendly electric vehicles in Indonesia. Based on wholesale data, as of October 2024, the Air ev has sold over 16,000 units, showcasing the strong enthusiasm and trust of Indonesian consumers for Wuling’s first locally manufactured EV.
The Air ev was launched with the vision of “Drive For A Green Life,” designed as an easy-to-use vehicle for daily activities. Its interior offers optimal comfort, accommodating up to four passengers in a spacious cabin. Charging the Air ev is hassle-free and can be done conveniently at home. Additionally, it features comprehensive safety technologies, including ABS and EBD braking systems, airbags for both driver and passengers, and stability control to ensure the safety of everyone on board.
Thanks to its compact design, the Air ev dominates Indonesian urban streets, particularly in densely populated areas. Its small size allows it to navigate through tight alleys and park in limited spaces with ease. This practicality makes it an ideal vehicle for daily activities, such as commuting to work, dropping off children at school, or running household errands. Its combination of modern design, at-home charging convenience, and operational efficiency makes the Air ev an excellent “Everyday Vehicle” that aligns with the eco-friendly lifestyle of today’s urban society.
To provide peace of mind to Air ev owners, each purchase includes the Worry-Free with Wuling EV Program, offering lifetime warranties for the three core components of the EV: the power battery, motor controller, and drive motor. The program also includes free maintenance services covering labor and spare parts for up to 15.5 years or 155,000 kilometers, a complimentary 7kW AC charging pile with free installation, and a voucher worth IDR 2 million for electricity usage over one year. Terms and conditions apply to the above promotions.
In 2024, the Air ev garnered accolades from multiple award events, securing a total of four prestigious titles. These include “Electric Car” from the Marketeers Youth Choice Award 2024, “The Most Popular EV Brand in Indonesia” from the Listrik Indonesia Awards 2024, “Most Popular EV Cars” from Jawa Pos’ 7 Most Popular Brand of the Year 2024, and “Our 1st EV (Micro EV)” from the Autofun Family Car Recommendation 2024.
