Pertamax Price Hike: Reactions from Pertamax Motorcycle Riders
- A Small
- A Medium
- A Bigger
The price of Pertamax increased from Rp9,500 per liter to Rp12,500-13,000 per liter on April 1, 2022. However, this increase did not immediately cause motorcyclists to switch to cheaper fuel.
A Jakpat survey shows that Pertamax users prefer to stick with Pertamax. 54% of respondents continued using Pertamax despite the price hike.
Furthermore, 37% of respondents chose to limit their mobility, and only 29% opted for cheaper gasoline like Pertalite.
Some parties are concerned that the Pertamax price increase could lead users to switch to Pertalite, potentially causing Pertalite shortages.
Meanwhile, 12% of respondents said they switched to online motorcycle taxis or cars, and another 12% said they used public transportation.
This Jakpat survey involved 1,295 car and motorcycle users who regularly use Pertamax. The survey was conducted from April 8-11, 2022.
