Automotive Development and Progress
Automotive Development and Progress - Automotive is one of the sciences that studies the existence of motorized vehicles, both 2-wheeled vehicles and more. But in the automotive world, there must be a lot of fans or people who like cars and motorcycles.

Bagaimana Perkembangan dan Kemajuan Otomotif di Indonesia?
Indonesia has an amazing development in the automotive world. Not just a mere statement, but this is also supported by a few researchers who conducted an analysis of automotive developments in Indonesia.
One of them is a study conducted by Vijay Rao, Automotive and Transportation Practice Frost & Sullivan, which states that Indonesia is one of the countries with the largest automotive development in ASEAN after Thailand. Frost & Sullivan predicts That Indonesia will become the largest automotive market in ASEAN in 2019 with a total of 2.3 million vehicles.
Such developments are triggered by stable economic growth in Indonesia, an increase in the middle class and an increase in investment in the automotive sector as well as the implementation of automotive regulations that support market growth.
In addition to Vijay Rao, another researcher from the Secretary General of the Indonesian Automotive Industry Association (Gaikindo), Noegardjito, also stated that his research at the 2015 National Automotive Industry Prospect Seminar facing the ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) that automotive sales in Indonesia were only a difference of around 100 thousand units or 7.5% from Thailand and Indonesia's domestic sales growth was recorded at 23.6% per year.
In the seminar, he also said that in competition with ASEAN countries, especially with Thailand, Indonesia has advantages in types of vehicles such as MPVs, trucks, pick-ups. However, it is still weak for the type of sedan that is currently controlled by Thailand, so he emphasized that he would participate in seizing the ASEAN market because the automotive market in Indonesia is developing rapidly and is a driving force so that the domestic market is not filled with foreign products.
Not standing still, Indonesia is currently working hard to overtake Thailand in the production and export of four-wheeled vehicles and strengthen the competitiveness of the national automotive industry so as not to sink in imported products.
According to some automotive lovers, Indonesia has become a remarkable transition, as it has become a place of automotive production for export to several countries on the Southeast Asian continent. However, Indonesia has become a car manufacturing industry spread across Southeast Asia after Thailand which controls about 50% of car production in the ASEAN region.
In 2017, the total production capacity in Indonesia was 2.3 million units per year, after which utilization is estimated to fall to 55 percent in 2017. This domestic capacity is not in line with the growing demand for domestic and foreign-made cars. in Indonesia.
The Indonesian government is turning Indonesian manufacturing into a global car production hub and wants to see major car manufacturers set up factories in Indonesia. Because the country is very optimistic about introducing Thailand as a production center in Southeast Asia.
Currently, Thailand controls around 45% of sales in the ASEAN region while Indonesia controls 34%. There is actually a link between car sales and economic growth when GDP growth boosts people's purchasing power while consumer confidence is very strong.
In times of uncertainty about economic growth regarding their future personal financial situation, people tend to delay buying relatively expensive items such as cars.

Automotive engine parts consist of several components, including cylinder heads, blocks, and oil tanks. Each of the three has other parts that are also interconnected with each other.
Inside the cylinder there are parts of the valve mechanism, combustion chamber, spark plug, injection, water jacket. In addition, there are block components consisting of pistons and engine cooling channels. The oil tank itself contains the crankshaft, carburetor, and several other systems.
2. Power Transfer
In the power transfer section, there are several components that are also interrelated and affect each other. These parts include clutch/clutch, transmission, propeller shaft, wheel, differential and park.
The transmission component in the power transfer section also has other parts in it, namely manual, semi-automatic, and automatic. If one of them is damaged, then the function of the other components will certainly not work.
