Turkey unveiled prototypes for its domestic car project on Dec. 27.
TURKEY’S 60-YEAR-OLD DREAM
It was designed by Turkey’s Automobile Joint Venture Group (TOGG) in a brief span of 18 months. The electric car will have two different horsepower options — 200 hp and 400 hp. The car will be able to do a 0-100 km/hour sprint in 7.6 seconds and 4.8 seconds, respectively, based on its engine type.
Its two models will have the 300 and 500 km range capacity.
Its Lithium ion battery, which was developed by TOGG completely, can be charged up to 80% in less than 30 minutes.
It will provide holographic assistant technology with three dimensional display and augmented reality technologies. This technology will be used in Turkey’s automobile for the first time as of 2022. TOGG will produce five different models — SUV, sedan, c-hatchback, b-SUV and b-MPV — until 2030 and own their intellectual and industrial property rights.
