[damm1t]

KOCAELI, TURKEY - AUGUST 09: Hidromec Hicon 7W electric indigenous excavator developed at Gebze TUBITAK Compound is displayed ahead of opening ceremony of TUBITAK Centers of Excellence in Kocaeli, Turkey on August 09, 2020.

The Hicon 7W, which has been described as economic, smart and eco-friendly, made its debut at Bauma 2019 and, due to having zero-emissions, is well suited to confined urban construction sites which usually have restrictions on emissions.

One of the Hicon 7W's standout safety features is a screen on the vehicle's rear that displays information to people behind it.

The latest award will sit well on Hidromek's trophy shelf alongside the company's 17 other awards, which include the German Design Award 2018 for its HMK 640 WL wheeled loader, and the 'Special Mention' in the 2017 awards for the HMK 600 MG motor grader.

Hicon 7W can be operated 8 hours long and takes 3,5 hours to fully charge it -1,5 hours with fast charge-. Batteries and electric motor also manufactured in Turkey along side software and other hardwares.

Turkish government heavily supports the initiatives in the field of electric vehicles and renewable energy.

Another electric powered car brand TOGG also unveiled new SUV and sedan models recently.

Hidromek seems to be one of the few international successes based in Turkey. Just saw that they have reached a 27% market share in Spain, which is a pretty big construction market. Kudos.

We need more of those technology and export leaders in Turkey.

Turkey needs to heavily invest in electric powered cars, buses, bikes, cookers etc. This way they do not need to rely on massive oil and gas imports. The saving bill will be massive.

On a light note, it’s pretty funny to see Tayyip Erdoğan behind the wheel of the vehicle.

I love Hidromek. The way they design the machines is incredibly beautiful. They received plenty of awards too.

Read this German article: https://www.bi-medien.de/artikel-36264-bm-hidromek-vertrieb-baumaschinen.bi

You can now buy these machines in Germany too. And it seems like it's a big success. Also, the distribution network in Germany is growing.

Still we need those imports to produce electricity till we go nuclear. Then we can start savings

You can use cheap Indonesia coal for your power plant

Any way, is this company a state owned or a private one ?? If it is a private company it means you have good entrepreneurship talents in your country.
