A BYD Atto 1 electric car lost its rear axle in Cengkareng, West Jakarta, on November 2, 2026. The incident occurred around 4 a.m. on Jalan Ring Road Raya, near the Kapuk toll exit. The driver told local transport officials that the car had hit a roadside barrier while travelling from Cengkareng toward Tegal Alur. The driver said the car continued for roughly one to two kilometres before the axle came off, with damage visible around a rear wheel. Officials moved the vehicle out of traffic and arranged for it to be towed to a nearby workshop.
BYD Motor Indonesia said its aftersales team was in contact with the company that owns the car to gather information and conduct a full vehicle inspection. The company’s current understanding is that the incident followed a forceful impact with a road barrier or curb. BYD said the inspection is needed to establish more accurate details; the cause has not been independently confirmed in the report.
The article identifies the vehicle as the Atto 1, an electric model that launched in Indonesia at the 2025 Gaikindo Indonesia International Auto Show, with a reported starting price of Rp 195 million. The report does not provide inspection results or further information about the vehicle’s condition after it was towed.
