"Someday this car need investors," said professor ITS, M. Nur Yuniarto to detikOto via a phone line, Friday (25/01/2013).

According to Nur, currently, the car is not yet feasible to be used on the highway, but in the future after undergoing refinement phase, the electric car will be comparable to the global electric Mobli.

In terms of energy it's using 100 percent of the electricity and it means not using gasoline as the driving force.

In addition, the regenerative brake feature also pinned on the electric car made ​​by ITS. "So if for example there is an interest in developing (production) it, we will help," said Nur.

Nur added, unfortunately, until now there is no local investor yet interested. He also acknowledged the absence of investors in because the car is not publicly or widely announced.

"Until now there has not because the car is not yet feasible. But later it will be different after we develop it further," he said.

There have been many examples of Indonesian national car that not firther develop due to highly amount of funds that must be spent to produce the car. With the potential investor, ITS hope the car will be produced.
