After the unsuccessful coup attempt and later the announcement of the state of emergency, the automotive sector, which is the leading sector in the Turkish economy, has given a clear message that it will continue at full speed.

The history of the Turkish Automotive Industry goes back as far as the beginning of the 20th century.  Ford, Chevrolet automobiles and trucks as well as Fiat automobiles have entered the Turkish market after World War I. The development of road infrastructure, the increase of urbanization and the rise of the income level after the 1950s gave rise to the increase in demand in automotive products.  The first significant automobile production has started with the manufacture of the Anadol automobile in 1966 and has produced 87.000 automobiles until 1982.
The industry appears to target the internal market, with no foreign competition, far from current technology and have a limited range of models until the 1990s.  A serious form of competition arose in the automotive sector with the 1996 Customs Union Agreement and the significant discounts on protection rates especially after the EU full membership application.
After the unsuccessful coup attempt and later the announcement of the state of emergency, the automotive sector, which is the leading sector in the Turkish economy, has given a clear message that it will continue at full speed.  The ones who shape the world of automotive have said that Turkey has the power to turn the new era into an opportunity.
Recently, the automotive sector in Turkey has the potential for gaining momentum in the wake of the domestic production in prospect of the electrical automobiles.  In recent years, the automotive sector is especially in the position of the exportation sector and it provides business opportunities to almost half a million people.  Besides all this, it tries to keep up with global changes.
It’s a possible chance that quicker steps will be taken towards passing on to electrical vehicles by developed countries which have technological and economic power, and that are more sensitive to the environment and human health.  If we bear in mind the extent of the existing capacity, the automobile industry will direct automobiles that use fossil fuel to developing or less developed countries in a short time.
