TOGG: Turkey's New All Electric Car Automaker Ready to Take on the World!

[Ahmad Bhutta]

Pakistan itself might not be a big market for TOGG vehicles, but Turkey can use our labor market for mass scale production, cheaply.

At a reasonable price togg sedan will sell like a cake , provided if it's manufactured in pak to keep price low

The interior design team included the engineers who designed ATAK chopper cockpit!! It’s offers a combat level flying sensibility to the driver....

We are born at our homes and die at the battlefields - a Turkish proverb

Each Turk is born as a soldier - a Turkish saying

I don't feel it at all. Too many touch controls are indeed a big inconvenience. Having any menus for everyday use functions is horrid for usability.

MFDs cost money as well. Having a few of them which will do nothing 99% of the time is a bad decision.

Turkish JV presents plans for domestic EV production

In a ceremony attended by Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, the Turkish Automobile Joint Venture Group (TOGG) officially revealed two electric car prototypes. The electric compact sedan and the electric SUV are to be introduced to the market in 2022.

The renowned Italian design studio Pininfarina designed the electric vehicles that Turkey is looking forward to producing domestically. Two configurations with 200 HP or 400 HP will be available with axle-mounted electric motors providing the drive. Whether this applies to both vehicles or just the SUV was not clarified; however, it is not unthinkable that they share a platform.

Acceleration with the larger motor setup from 0 to 100 km/h is possible in 4.8 seconds with a range above 500 km. Charging the battery will take less than 30 minutes to an 80% charge. The smaller motor features a single electric motor mounted on the rear axle, taking 7.2 seconds to reach 100 km/h with a 300 km range.

“Today, we are witnessing a historic day of realizing Turkey’s 60-year dream together,” said president Erdoğan during the unveiling ceremony. He added that Turkey “is not only a market for new technologies but has also become a country that develops, produces and exports them all over the world.”

Interestingly, this marks the second time Turkey has presented an electric prototype, with the first taking place back in 1961. The Devrim unfortunately never made it past the prototype stage, however. These models will be significantly more modern than their predecessor, featuring Level 2 autonomous driving capabilities, with designs to improve to Level 3 with over-the-air upgrades. Furthermore, the TOGG group will introduce a holographic assistant, which will provide futuristic user experience, according to the manufacturer. The aim is to add 3D imaging and augmented reality technologies to display information for the driver. Ostensibly this would mean the driver would never have to take their eyes off the road to keep an eye on speed or their battery charge.

Production will take place at a new factory in the Gemlik district of the northwestern Bursa province starting in 2022. There TOGG aims to produce up to 175,000 vehicles across five model types by 2030.

Update 20 July 2020: Construction of the first car plant of a domestic manufacturer is now starting in Turkey. It is to be completed within 18 months and will have capacities for up to 175,000 vehicles per year as planned above.

President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan was at the groundbreaking ceremony and said the construction of the vast production complex “will radically change the perception of a factory in people’s minds,” the Daily Sabah reports.

The facility will include centres for research and development and a customer experience park. 4,323 staff, including 300 qualified personnel, will be employed here.

Turkey’s car project under the TOGG umbrella will see a fixed investment of over TL 22 billion ($3.21 billion). By 2030, TOGG hopes to produce one million vehicles in five different models described previously.

(I skip other parts about the principles of the project, design and concepts such mobility, smart devices, communication between machines, 4 dimensional living spaces, concepts of transition to smart living spaces, sustainability and also factories, infrastructure preparations, investments etc. )

Some headlines:

250 to 400 hp engine power options
0-100km 4.0 sec
500+ km range
As the cost of maintaining ownership, it will be the most competitive product.
Ncap rate will be 5 stars
Production activities will have a near-zero carbon footprint.

Cybersecurity and connectivity will use blockchain on the services side. Your vehicle will offer you ownership experience in a smart system without dealing with all the details. It will create a travel experience without using a credit card, your car also will be your digital wallet.
