PT Astra Daihatsu Motor (ADM) is an automobile manufacturer headquartered in Jakarta, Indonesia. This company is a collaborative venture involving Daihatsu, Astra International, and Toyota Tsusho. It holds the distinction of being Indonesia's top car producer by volume and manufacturing capability, while ranking second in sales after Toyota. ADM is responsible for producing the majority of Toyota-branded vehicles in the Indonesian market, including popular compact models such as the Avanza, Rush, Agya, and Calya.
Established in 1992 through the consolidation of PT Daihatsu Indonesia, PT Daihatsu Engine Manufacturing Indonesia, and PT National Astra Motor, Daihatsu expanded its ownership share from 40% to 61.75% in 2002. The distribution, sales, and after-sales services for Daihatsu automobiles are handled by Daihatsu Sales Operation (AI-DSO), a subsidiary of Astra International.
History
In 1973, Astra International obtained the rights to import Daihatsu vehicles and by 1976 had become the exclusive agent and distributor. PT Daihatsu Indonesia was founded in 1978 as a steel pressing facility, followed by the creation of PT Daihatsu Engine Manufacturing Indonesia (DEMI) in 1983, and PT Nasional Astra Motor in 1987, which served as the sole agent and importer. These companies were unified under ADM in 1992.
In 2003, ADM partnered with Toyota Astra Motor to introduce the Toyota Avanza and Daihatsu Xenia—vehicles developed through a synergy of Toyota’s Toyota Production System expertise and Daihatsu’s proficiency in producing affordable cars. ADM’s production capacity increased from 80,000 units per year in 2003 to 200,000 by 2005, eventually reaching 530,000 units following plant expansions and the establishment of a new facility in Karawang.
Facilities
ADM runs five manufacturing plants: Sunter Assembly, Sunter Press, Karawang Casting, Karawang Engine, and Karawang Assembly. These are supported by a spare parts center located in Cibitung. Together, these facilities provide an annual production capacity of 530,000 vehicles. Additionally, ADM operates a research and development center in Karawang that includes a design studio, test tracks replicating over twenty different road conditions, and an Engineering Center.
