Executive Summary

BMI remains bullish on growth in Indonesia's auto sector. Despite the introduction of new regulations regarding minimum down payments on vehicle purchases in June 2012 and a further tightening of legislation in September 2012 to include shari'a lending as well, Indonesia's total vehicle sales for 2012 came in at 1.116mn units, a record high.

Given that auto sales picked up in September 2012, the market has somewhat digested this new legislation for vehicle sales and we expect 2013 to be another record year for total industry sales. BMI currently expects vehicle sales to grow by an annual average of 8.9% over the 2013-2017 period.

While motorcycle sales suffered and contracted by 12% in 2012, we expect them to stage a recovery in 2013, and grow by 6%.

Although we regard Indonesia as a prominent South East Asian auto hub, we believe the rapid and timely expansion of the Tanjung Priok car terminal will be critical for Indonesia to retain its attractiveness as an alternative production base compared to Thailand.

With Toyota already investing into models which fall under the low-cost green car (LCGC) policy, we see potential for other automakers to follow suit and take advantage of this scheme by the government. As such, we believe this scheme will provide a nice tailwind for auto production growth in 2013 and beyond. We forecast auto production to grow by an annual average of 9.4% over the 2013-2017 period.
