MAKA Motors Launches MAKA CAVALRY: “Motor Paling Enak”

Founded in 2022, MAKA Motors is an Indonesian electric vehicle company that secured a significant investment of US$37.6 million in 2023, positioning it as one of Southeast Asia’s most well-funded hardware companies. After three years of intensive research and development, MAKA Motors yesterday (15/01) officially launched the MAKA Cavalry as the Motor Paling Enak (roughly translated as The Best Motorcycle).

Indonesia, the world’s third-largest motorcycle market, recorded nationwide sales of 6.2 million motorcycles in 2023 alone. However, electric motorcycle adoption remains low, accounting for only about 1% of total motorcycle sales. Recognizing the potential of electric motorcycles to help riders save money, reduce government spending on fuel subsidies, and strengthen the domestic value chain of the Indonesian automotive industry, MAKA Motors has established its own research and development facility. With a team of experienced local talent with global experience, MAKA Motors is focused on creating motorcycles that perfectly address the specific needs and preferences of Indonesian riders, while also overcoming the unique challenges of Indonesian roads.

Raditya Wibowo, Founder & CEO of MAKA Motors, shared his passion for building MAKA Motors and contributing to the Indonesian automotive industry. “I’ve been a motorcycle rider since high school, and I ride a motorcycle to the office every day—which gives me a deep understanding of what motorcycle riders truly desire. MAKA Motors was founded three years ago with a commitment to providing electric motorcycles that offer the best benefits for riders. With a vision to spearhead automotive technology self-sufficiency in Indonesia, we aim to contribute to helping Indonesia build an end-to-end domestic electric vehicle supply chain. Today, we present this commitment and vision through the launch of the MAKA Cavalry.”

The Best Choice for Urban Use

A common concern regarding electric motorcycles is range. Nevertheless, in Indonesia’s large and sprawling urban areas —where traffic, road conditions, and topography are constant challenges— long-range capability is essential. The MAKA Cavalry offers an impressive 160 km range on a single charge, thanks to its 4 kWh battery and Hi-Regen riding mode that extends the range. The battery is also IP67 certified, making it dustproof and waterproof up to 60 cm deep.

High mobility often requires riders to race against time. Therefore, the speed of the motorcycle becomes essential. Understanding this need, the MAKA Cavalry is equipped with a maximum speed of 105 km/h, allowing for fast yet comfortable rides.

 Conquering inclines is a challenge for electric motorcycles. However, the MAKA Cavalry can climb inclines up to 30 degrees while still providing a comfortable ride. Its technology enables simultaneous throttle and brake operation, preventing the motorcycle from rolling backward or losing momentum. The spacious 20-liter storage compartment can accommodate daily essentials such as shoes, a helmet, and a jacket all at once. To further solidify its position as the best choice for urban use, the MAKA Cavalry is equipped with advanced features, including USB A & C charging ports, LCD speedometer, LED charging indicators, hybrid braking system, double disc brakes, and reverse feature for convenient parking.

Joyful Riding

Experience Acceleration is crucial when overtaking other vehicles or when starting from a stationary position at the red light. Slow, unresponsive, or jerky acceleration can hinder a motorcycle’s ability to predictably and quickly gain speed. The MAKA Cavalry is designed to offer agile maneuverability with smooth and precise throttle response, resulting in an instant acceleration from 0 to 60 km/h in just 4.8 seconds. This provides a truly enjoyable riding experience.

The MAKA Cavalry comes with two riding modes: Hi-Torque and Hi-Regen. Hi-Torque provides a thrilling acceleration experience with maximum power output, while Hi-Regen prioritizes energy efficiency. By converting brake energy which is typically wasted as heat into electricity to recharge the battery, the Hi-Regen mode extends the vehicle’s range.

The MAKA Cavalry also adopts the latest suspension technology. With dual adjustable shock absorbers, riders can fine-tune the suspension stiffness to suit road conditions and personal preferences. This technology not only enhances riding comfort but also improves handling and stability.

Stylish and Cool

Indonesian riders value design as much as performance. The MAKA Cavalry’s design combines an aggressive front with an elegant rear, reflecting the strength and courage of every Indonesian to take charge of their lives.

The MAKA Cavalry looks even bolder and more stylish with projector LEDs and DRLs on both the front and rear lights. It comes in six attractive color options: Victory Red, Armor Grey, Desert Beige, Ocean Blue, Stallion Black, and Royal White.

Advanced Technology

The MAKA Cavalry is engineered to be the best motorcycle, powered by advanced technology developed in-house by MAKA Motors. Three key components —the high-capacity Intercellar™ battery, the powerful Revium™ dynamo, and the intelligent Osiris™ controller— seamlessly work together to deliver a high-performance riding experience.

Arief Fadillah, Co-Founder & CTO of MAKA Motors, explains, “With our in-house R&D, we have the freedom to develop technologies tailored to Indonesian riders. The combination of the Intercellar™, the Revium™, and the Osiris™ results in exceptional performance, offering impressive acceleration, top speed, and range. Its performance is comparable to a 150-160 cc gasoline engine, but with higher energy efficiency. We are confident that the MAKA Cavalry sets a new standard for electric motorcycles in Indonesia.”

Every MAKA Cavalry purchase includes a MAKA Charger. For a 20 km daily commute, charging times are: 60 minutes with the standard charger, 26 minutes with the MAKA Charger+, or a super-fast 12 minutes at a MAKA Fast Charging Station.

With all its benefits, the MAKA Cavalry is competitively priced at only Rp35,850,000 OTR Jadetabek. Moreover, choosing an electric motorcycle is a smart investment due to its low operating costs, resulting in significant long-term savings. Starting this week, customers can visit MAKA Showrooms which are already operating in five locations within the Jadetabek region to do a test drive and purchase the MAKA Cavalry.

 The Motor Paling Enak launch event was even more exciting with the presence of Duta Modjo as Duta Besar MAKA (ambassador). As a musician, Duta has relied heavily on motorcycles throughout his career. “Motorcycles have been a part of my life. Since high school, I’ve used them for everything, including traveling to school music festivals. Winning isn’t everything, what’s important is to keep believing in yourself,” he shared. It’s these common values that led MAKA Motors to choose him as Duta Besar MAKA. This collaboration is expected to inspire more people to experience the thrill of riding the Motor Paling Enak.
