KatadataOTO – The Lepas L8 has finally officially hit the roads in Indonesia. This environmentally friendly four-wheeled vehicle was just launched at the Gaikindo Jakarta Auto Week (GJAW) 2025.
The Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) is believed to be able to attract the attention of national automotive enthusiasts.
"With the Lepas L8, we are entering a new era of elegant driving with an abundance of new technology and a premium feel," said Arga Simanjuntak, Head of Marketing for Lepas Indonesia at ICE BSD, Tangerang today, Friday (21/11).

Inside the cabin, Lepas owners can get more comfort in the L8.
As a daily car, there is a digital instrument panel. It is useful for displaying various features, such as entertainment and others.
Then, the layout of the buttons is made very compact. So Lepas L8 owners can adapt quickly.
Most interesting are the safety features offered. Because the Lepas L8 is embedded with the latest ADAS technology.
Consisting of APA Automated Parking Assist (APA) and Remote Parking Assist (RPA). Both features allow the vehicle to park itself without driver assistance.
