Jakarta, July 9th  2024 –  PT NETA Auto Indonesia (NETA), a leading electric vehicle distributor in Indonesia, is thrilled to offer an exclusive experience for selected media representatives to test the performance and firsthand driving experience of the latest addition to the NETA lineup, the NETA V-II. This event, taking place from July 9-11, 2024, invites participants to explore the robust features of the NETA V-II through a test drive route from Jakarta to Bandung, West Java. Attendees will have the opportunity to discover the extensive smart technology features and ADAS systems designed to enhance driving comfort and safety.

“This Media Test Drive presents a valuable opportunity for NETA Indonesia to provide firsthand driving experiences with the NETA V-II, showcasing all its advanced and innovative features to our media partners. We hope the media representatives will have a memorable experience throughout the event and get to test all the ADAS features, which we have integrated to support comfort and safety,” said Jerry Huang, Managing Director of NETA Auto Indonesia.

Successfully launched at PEVS last May, the NETA V-II is a compact SUV that seats up to five passengers, measuring 4,070 mm x 1,690 mm x 1,540 mm, offering a spacious and roomy feel for its class. Its modern, stylish, and youthful design includes the latest features such as the Starlight Front Grille, LED Headlights, and 16-inch alloy wheels.

Performance-wise, the NETA V-II is equipped with a 36.1 kWh Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) battery, capable of traveling up to 401 km on a single charge. It also offers a range of advanced features for a better, safer, and more comfortable driving experience. One of the highlights is the Smart Driving system with 9 functions of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), including Forward Collision Warning (FCW), Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB), Front Vehicle Start Alert (FSA), Full-Speed Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), Traffic Jam Assist (TJA), Integrated Cruise Assist (ICA), Lane Departure Warning (LDW), Emergency Lane Keeping System (ELKS), and High Beam Assist (HBA). The DC Fast Charging technology is also included for efficient charging times, allowing the NETA V-II to charge from 30% to 80% in just 30 minutes.

The Jakarta to Bandung journey with the NETA V-II will experience how the 9 ADAS features function directly on the highway. As a city with notably congested roads, Bandung provides an ideal environment for the NETA V-II, offering a comfortable and fatigue-reducing driving experience. Additionally, NETA provides the media with an opportunity to test the NETA V-II battery quality. During the Battery Test, the NETA V-II will traverse waterlogged areas to prove its safety in flood conditions.

The Full-Speed Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) feature can be experienced when entering the toll area. This feature allows the vehicle to automatically adjust its speed to match the car in front, offering extra comfort for the driver, especially in traffic jams. The Traffic Jam Assist (TJA) feature is highly beneficial in managing congestion by automatically regulating the car's acceleration and deceleration. In areas with smoother traffic, the Integrated Cruise Assist (ICA) helps maintain a safe distance from the vehicle ahead, providing a sense of security and relaxation, allowing drivers to enjoy the journey. The Emergency Lane Keeping System (ELKS) and Lane Departure Warning (LDW) ensure the car remains in its lane, adding extra safety when driving on highways.

The interior of the NETA V-II is designed for maximum comfort. With spaciousness and premium leather seats, passengers can enjoy the journey without feeling fatigued. Additional features include Wireless Phone Charging for convenient, cable-free phone charging, ideal for long trips, and a High-resolution & Ultra-large 14.6-inch Central Control Screen for enhanced entertainment and navigation. CarPlay connectivity enables seamless integration of phones with the car’s entertainment system, providing easy access to various apps and media.

“The NETA V-II not only offers comfort and safety but also provides a modern and enjoyable driving experience. Its advanced safety features are particularly helpful on highways and in congested areas. With integrated technology, the NETA V-II is a reliable choice for both long-distance travel and busy urban areas, ensuring maximum comfort,” concluded Jerry Huang.
