The Timor S 515 was a compact sedan manufactured by defunct Indonesian car manufacturer Timor.
Trims
- Timor S515 (SOHC): carburetted or fuel injected
- Timor S515i (DOHC)
- Timor S516i LE (sporty Limited Edition, licensed by Prodrive)
- Timor SW516i (Stationwagon) - planned
- Timor SL516i (Limousine) - planned
Production
Although this is the first Indonesian car, it is actually manufactured in Korea. Production ceased in 2003 due to the Asian Financial Crisis. The company closed forever. Kia motors planned to revive the company but the venture failed.
Design Quirks
- Because the Timor brand was the only Indonesian automotive manufacturer, the S 151 enjoy low tax rates compared with the other cars in Indonesia.
