Togg Turkish national cars[a] are five electric cars that are planned to be produced by Turkey's Automobile Joint Venture Group Inc.,[9] the first being a C-segment SUV.[10]

History

The automotive industry in Turkey has previously produced cars domestically, for example the Anadol brand.

Company

This section is an excerpt from Togg.[edit]
TOGG logo.svg
Togg, or Turkey's Automobile Joint Venture Group Inc. (Turkish: Türkiye'nin Otomobili Girişim Grubu A.Ş.) is a Turkish automotive company founded as a joint venture in 2018. The company announced that the first car for which it has intellectual property rights will be ready for mass production by the end of 2022.

Overview

Design and branding

Italian car design firm Pininfarina with Turkish car Designer Murat Günak designed the car based on TOGG's requirements, including a tulip motif.[11] There is a "western" and an "oriental" variant.[12]

Platform

The platform will be shared across all five cars,[13] a C-SUV, C-sedan, C-hatchback, B-segment SUV and C-MPV.[14]

Motors

There are single (RWD) and dual motor (AWD) options.[15]

Autonomy and communications

The cars will have level 3 autonomy.[16][failed verification] According to Zorlu the cars will be constantly connected to the internet by 5G.[17]

Safety

The car conforms to the standards of the European New Car Assessment Programme's five-star rating system applicable by 2022.[18] Cars sold in the home market will be speed limited to 180 km/h[17][15] (the national motorway speed limit is 130 kph some and 140 kph km/h).[19][better source needed]

Pricing and competition

Pricing will be similar to competitors C-class electric vehicles.[17] Prior to TOGG the Renault Zoe and BMW i3 were top selling plug-ins.[20]

Production

A factory is being built in Gemlik,[21] with an eventual annual capacity of 175,000 units,[11] mass production vehicles being slated to begin in the final quarter of 2022,[13][22] with a target of a million vehicles by 2030.[14] On 18 July 2020 ground was broken for the factory on the 100 ha (250 acres) site, and construction is planned to take 18 months. When completed, a workforce of over 4,300 will be directly employed in the plant, and about three quarters of the sourcing will be from within the country.[14]

Batteries

Battery cells will be produced in a joint venture with Chinese company Farasis Energy, and battery modules and packs will be made in Turkey.[12] Farasis says the cells will last for 1 million kilometers and can be charged from 10% to 80% in less than 20 minutes.[6] Another report says the cells will come from Germany.[23] The range is said to be over 500 km, and the standard Turkish electrical power socket (which is 230V) will provide a full charge overnight.[6]

Sales

The government has guaranteed that it will buy 30,000 vehicles by 2035.[14] Exports to Germany may begin a year or more after the car is released in Turkey.[12]

Economics

22 billion lira ($3.21 billion) are slated to be invested[14] and it is hoped the current account deficit of the economy of Turkey will be reduced by US$7.5 billion,[13] due to reduced oil imports and an even greater positive balance of trade in cars.[24][unreliable source?] The CEO said in 2020 that the economy will benefit by 50 billion euros over 15 years by the direct and indirect increase in employment.[14]

Environment

It is hoped to benefit the environment by reducing air pollution in Turkey and greenhouse gas emissions by Turkey.[25]
