Kacır, who also mentioned being in contact with Tesla and other companies, said, “The Chinese are very interested as well. We have opened our doors to any investor that will add value to Turkey. As long as they operate with a win-win understanding. I believe we will hear new news in the coming period.”

Reminding that Toyota took its first step in Europe for producing rechargeable hybrid vehicles in Turkey, Kacır said, “We recently held its ceremony. Ford has completed its investment to produce electric commercial vehicles at its Yeniköy facilities.”
