INKA Kancil is an Indonesian car produced by PT INKA. Kancil is an abbreviation of Kendaraan Niaga Cilik Irit Lincah (small, efficient, and agile commercial vehicle), also Indonesian name for chevrotain. It was expected as a replacement for auto rickshaw and bemo because they were not allowed to increase in number or be produced in the Jakarta area. As a type IV environmental transportation vehicle, the Kancil cannot develop its market because Kancil can only replace the existing auto rickshaw. A new Kancil unit can only enter the road if it replaces one auto rickshaw. This means that the buyer of Kancil must also buy 1 piece of auto rickshaw to have its operating license turned off. Because of this rule, Kancil cannot develop quickly, and business owners don't want Kancil to be sold to the public for the use of private passenger vehicles,[1] although it is reported that INKA has produced 40,000 units of this vehicle.[2]
