Currently, there is one series of autonomous trams in IKN. In the initial stage, the autonomous tram will function as a feeder vehicle for participants in the Indonesian Independence Day ceremony, with a cruising speed of 40 km/hour on Jalan Sumbu Kebangsaan Barat and Jalan Sumbu Kebangsaan Timur.

The Integrated Autonomous Tram is a new technology in land transportation, combining the light rapid transit (LRT) or light rail transportation system and autonomous buses. The presence and trial of the Integrated Autonomous Tram is one of the government's real steps in realizing IKN as an environmentally friendly city based on sophisticated technology, as well as being an example for the development of other cities in Indonesia.
