BYD is on track to complete its $1 billion electric vehicle factory in Subang, Indonesia, by the end of 2025. Learn how this major project will boost local EV production, expand supply chains, and shape Indonesia’s role in the global EV industry.
The planned completion of BYD’s EV factory in Subang, West Java by end of 2025 marks a pivotal moment for Indonesia’s ambitions in the electric-vehicle sector. With a $1 billion investment and an annual capacity of 150,000 EVs, the factory promises to transform how EVs are manufactured, sold, and distributed in Indonesia — and potentially across the region.
If all goes according to plan — timely completion, robust supply chain build-out, supportive policies, and sufficient consumer demand — this could be the beginning of a new era: one in which Indonesia plays a central role in the global EV industry, consumers have affordable, locally built EVs, and the transition to cleaner mobility accelerates.
In short: 2025 might very well be the year Indonesia goes from being an EV market to becoming an EV manufacturing hub.
