History

PT Fin Komodo Teknologi was founded by Mr. Ir. H. Ibnu Susilo in 2004. Previously he worked at IPTN (Industri Pesawat Terbang Nusantara) with several positions and responsibilities. Following positions and responsibilities that have been held by Ibnu Susilo:[1]

Because Indonesian government stopped stop committing to produce N-250, in 2004 he decided to leave IPTN and finally founded PT Fin Komodo Teknologi.[2] FKT has been doing the design since years 2005, but only commercialized in 2009 after going through various the trial phase, as well as the production of several generations. FKT produces Fin Komodo family of cruiser buggy.[3]

FKT conducted market research in 2005, in 2006 began designing, and in 2007 started the production of the first generation. In 2008, FKT tested the first generation. Then they made improvement on the 2nd, 3rd and 4th generation of Fin Komodo cars in 2009, 2010, and 2011 respectively. Currently, FKT has developed the 5th generation.

In 2013, Ibnu Susilo as the chairman of Asianusa protested Government Regulation no. 41/2013 because it is considered deadly to national car project. The regulation makes the price of the Fin Komodo from Rp77 million to Rp123.2 million because it considers the Fin Komodo as a luxury vehicle and imposes a PPnBM (sales tax on luxury goods) of 60%. In addition, the Government also exempts PPnBM for Low Cost Green Car (LCGC), making foreign brand cars cheaper and reducing the national car market.[4] [5]
