Recently, the government presented PMK Number 5/PMK.010/22 concerning Sales Tax on Luxury Goods on the Delivery of Taxable Goods Classified as Luxury in the form of Certain Motorized Vehicles Borne by the Government (PPnBM DTP) for the 2022 Fiscal Year which was set on February 2, 2022. This is the basis for the imposition of the 2022 PPnBM relaxation for several vehicle models.

There are several Daihatsu models that fall into this category, namely Sigra, Ayla, Xenia and Terios. It is hoped that these models can boost Daihatsu's sales in the following month.
