Mobil Lotus Berbahan Bakar Nuklir

At the moment if there is one thing potentially more lethal to the human race than global warming, it’s global warming statistics.

You cannot go near any form of printed word, programme or discussion without having a barrage of numbers forced upon you relating to everything from the amount of CO2 an ant produces when it breaks wind, to the percentage of people in the world who regularly hold their breath to help do their bit.

Nostalgia Mobil Timor Buatan Indonesia










Timor adalah merek mobil yang dijual Indonesia pada pertengahan tahun 1990, yang mana merupakan versi yang sama dengan merek mobil dari Korea Selatan, Kia Sephia. Mobil ini dimaksudkan sebagai mobil nasional Indonesia, seperti Proton di negara Malaysia. Karenanya, mobil merk Timor dibebaskan dari pajak-pajak dan bea lainnya yang biasa dikenakan pada mobil-mobil lain yang dijual di Indonesia.

Ketika Toyota Bukan Lagi Buatan Jepang

Peta industri otomotif dunia memang telah berubah. Para prinsipal pun membangun kantong-kantong produksi di negara tertentu. Karena memiliki pasar mobil yang besar, Indonesia pun ketiban untung.

Hidup Indonesia, PT KANZEN Mau Buat Mobil Dalam Negeri

Selain PT INKA, PT Kanzen juga akan membuat mobil meski agak mahal di harga Rp 80 juta.

Semoga jaringan pemasaran dan servisnya kali ini lebih baik, kemudian semoga bank2 pemerintah bersedia membantu pendanaan, pejabat pemerintah menggunakan mobil tsb untuk ke tempat kerja, dsb.

Bayangkan jika di Indonesia pasaran kendaraan bermotor 1 juta, maka jika harga mobil umumnya Rp 100 juta, dengan memakai mobil GEA seharga Rp 50 juta bisa dihemat uang Rp 50 trilyun/tahun. Belum lagi biaya bensin yg 2 kali lebih irit.
