Rudi MF, the Project Manager for IIMS 2025, shared that this year’s event will feature ten more four-wheeled brands compared to the previous edition. While the identities of the two unannounced brands remain a mystery, Rudi hinted that all will be revealed on February 4. “For these two brands, wait for February 4. Just be a little patient. Because we respect the timeline of those brands too,” he said during a recent meeting in Kuningan, South Jakarta.
Speculation is rife that the two undisclosed brands could be Xpeng and Jeep. Both companies have recently forged significant partnerships in Indonesia—Xpeng with the Erajaya Group and Jeep with the Indomobil Group. Industry insiders suggest that these brands are likely to leverage IIMS 2025 as the platform to debut their latest offerings.
“Basically, we’ll wait for the (two brands) later, so we can wait for the official announcement from them,” Rudi added, keeping the intrigue alive.
The event will take place at JIExpo Kemayoran in Central Jakarta from February 13 to 23, 2025. Spanning an impressive 154,289 square meters, the venue is slightly larger than last year’s, accommodating the growing number of exhibitors and attendees.

Interview with John Carter: Insights on Global Automotive Trends and IIMS 2025
Archyde News: Good day,Mr. Carter. Thank you for joining us today.The Indonesia International Motor Show (IIMS) 2025 is just around the corner, and it’s already generating a lot of buzz.As an automotive analyst and industry expert,could you start by telling us what you see as the biggest trends shaping the global automotive industry in 2025?
John Carter: thank you for having me. It’s an exciting time for the automotive industry, no doubt. I’d say the top trends in 2025 are the accelerated adoption of electric vehicles (EVs),the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in vehicle systems,and the push toward sustainability across the supply chain. EVs are no longer a niche market—they’re becoming mainstream, with major automakers investing heavily in electrification. AI is transforming everything from autonomous driving to predictive maintenance,making vehicles smarter and safer. And sustainability is now a core focus, with companies working to reduce carbon footprints, use recycled materials, and develop cleaner manufacturing processes.
Archyde News: Those are indeed transformative trends. Speaking of EVs, how do you see Indonesia’s EV market evolving, and what role will events like IIMS play in its growth?
John Carter: Indonesia’s EV market is at a pivotal moment. The government has been proactive in introducing policies to encourage EV adoption, such as tax incentives and infrastructure development. However,challenges remain,like the high upfront cost of EVs and the need for a more extensive charging network. Events like IIMS 2025 are crucial because they provide a platform for automakers to showcase thier latest EV models, educate consumers, and promote the benefits of electric mobility. It’s also an opportunity for stakeholders—manufacturers, policymakers, and consumers—to come together and discuss how to overcome barriers to adoption.
Archyde News: That’s a great point. What can attendees expect from IIMS 2025 in terms of new technologies and vehicle launches?
John Carter: IIMS 2025 is shaping up to be a landmark event. Attendees can expect to see cutting-edge technologies, from advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) to next-generation infotainment systems. we’ll likely see a strong emphasis on EVs, with major brands unveiling new electric models tailored to the Indonesian market. Additionally, there will be innovations in connected car technology, allowing vehicles to communicate with each other and with infrastructure. I wouldn’t be surprised if we also see some concept cars that give us a glimpse into the future of mobility.
Archyde News: Exciting times ahead! For consumers considering investing in an electric vehicle, what advice would you give?
John Carter: My advice would be to do your research and think long-term. While EVs may have a higher upfront cost,they often offer lower operating and maintenance expenses. Look into the available incentives and charging infrastructure in your area. Test drive different models to see which one suits your needs and lifestyle. And don’t hesitate to ask questions—events like IIMS are a great opportunity to speak directly with manufacturers and get all the data you need.
Archyde News: Excellent advice. as we wrap up, what do you think will be the most exciting thing about IIMS 2025?
John Carter: For me, it’s the convergence of innovation and ambition. IIMS 2025 isn’t just about showcasing cars; it’s about envisioning the future of transportation. Seeing global and local players come together to push the boundaries of what’s possible—whether it’s through electrification,AI,or sustainability—is truly inspiring. It’s a reminder that the automotive industry is not just evolving; it’s reinventing itself.
Archyde News: Thank you, Mr. Carter, for sharing your insights today. We look forward to seeing these exciting developments unfold at IIMS 2025.
John Carter: Thank you.It’s been a pleasure.
