Certainty is delivered Mukita Sutikno, Managing Director of PT gmai Chevrolet in the event Mid-Year Gathering in Bali, on Tuesday (22/06/2010).
"Now still waiting for price certainty. Plan to bring Orlando had 70 percent and we take away from South Korea," said Mukiat. He added, about the expected price is lower than the Captiva.
Novianto Hary, Manager Marketing gmai adds, Orlando will be positioned as a substitute for Zafira in the global market. But the biggest obstacle that must be considered is imor duty (import duty) from Korea which is quite high.
