Nickel, nickel, everywhere

Indonesia and Thailand are vying to become the electric vehicle (EV) hub of Southeast Asia. While Thailand has historically dominated car manufacturing, Indonesia boasts vast nickel reserves, a crucial component in EV batteries.

Indonesia and Thailand have implemented aggressive tax strategies to make EVs more affordable. Both countries offer subsidies and tax breaks for consumers and manufacturers until 2025.
