  • Jointly developed by Italdesign and Indonesian partners, the i2C is the country’s first national electric SUV concept.

  • The design integrates cultural motifs such as the Garuda and batik patterns to reflect Indonesia’s heritage.

  • Built on an existing EV platform, it’s set to move from concept to production readiness by around 2027.

 

National Electric SUV with a Cultural Signature

The 2025 Italdesign i2C Concept isn’t just another sleek, anonymous EV on the show floor. Seen in the clay at GIIAS 2025, it’s a vehicle with a job to do — and an image to carry. Built for Indonesia’s government-backed push into electric mobility, it wears its national identity quite literally in its skin.

 

Proportions and Front-End Presence

From the front, the proportions are upright, even a little blunt, the kind that give a sense of purpose before aerodynamics get their say. The face has an angular grille area framed by lighting elements that subtly nod to the Garuda emblem. Step to the side and the shape reads as classic SUV — high beltline, square shoulders, solid stance. The rear is cut shorter than you might expect, a decision that probably owes as much to packaging as style.

 

Side Profile and Surface Treatment

In profile, it’s less about flow and more about stance. The wheel arches are pronounced without being cartoonish. Surfaces are kept clean, almost austere, which makes the patterned details stand out — especially those batik-inspired motifs pressed into trim sections. It’s a quiet kind of branding, and it works better than a plastered logo ever could.

 

Interior Focus on Practicality

Inside, at least from what Italdesign has shown, the cabin is a straight-forward, functional space. It’s designed for six or seven occupants, depending on how it’s configured. No sprawling digital displays here in the clay model, just an emphasis on open space and logical ergonomics. Given the stated dual role for family and institutional use, it’s hard to imagine the production version getting too experimental inside.

 

Platform and Technical Outlook

Underneath, the i2C rides on an existing EV platform from an international partner. Italdesign hasn’t thrown out hard specs yet — no battery capacities or motor outputs — but the choice of a proven base should make the leap from concept to reality less of a cliff. If all goes to plan, prototypes could be on the road before 2027.

 

A Step Toward Local EV Identity

This is a project with as much symbolism as substance. Indonesia has made no secret of its ambitions to grow a domestic EV industry, and the i2C is an early, tangible step. On the global stage, it’s unlikely to worry established players like BYD’s Tang EV or Hyundai’s Ioniq 7 in terms of reach or refinement, but that’s not the point. This is about local capability — design, engineering, and manufacturing that reflects its own culture and priorities.

 

Final Observations

Seen in person, even as a clay model, the i2C feels grounded. Italdesign has given it a form that’s recognisable, adaptable, and distinctively Indonesian — a starting point for a national EV identity rather than just a concept to be forgotten after the motor show lights fade.
