Share Indonesia set to build $116M vehicle test site to capture ASEAN market Mon, 14 December 2020 Indonesia's transportation ministry aims to finish building a 1.64 trillion rupiah (US$116.5 million), international standard motor vehicle “proving ground” within the next four years to help Indonesian automakers capture the Southeast Asian market. Minister Budi Karya Sumadi showed a project road map whereby the proving ground – a racetrack-like site to be built in Bekasi, West Java – was slated to begin development in 2022 and be finished by 2024. The proving ground will test Indonesia-made motorcycles, three-wheelers, cars, buses and trucks in accordance with the international benchmark UN Regulation (UNR) on vehicles, to make them more compliant with other markets’ standards, particularly the ASEAN market.
