We Develop Policies and Strategies In Line With Our Global Vision

I think that the Turkish automotive industry, which manufactures world-class cars thanks to its strong supplier infrastructure, trained manpower, sustainable and safe operations has a very significant position for Turkey today.

We observe the acceleration of our industry toward a better future

The Turkish automotive industry, in which we also operate as a main industrial company, continues its position as Turkey's leading industry, which is usually called the locomotive industry. In 2021, the industry manufactured 1 million 276 thousand vehicles while 937 thousand of them, i.e. almost 74%, were exported. At the end of 2022, it is projected that there will be an improvement of over 20% in both manufacturing and export figures compared to 2021. Despite the reflections of the global problem caused by the supply of parts, we observe an acceleration towards better in our industry.

I would like to believe that this is sustainable development. Although there have been some losses in export competitiveness due to the increase in global inflation and the rising energy costs in parallel with the indirect effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, which unfortunately still exists, I think that the Turkish automotive industry, which manufactures world-class cars thanks to its strong supplier infrastructure, trained manpower, sustainable and safe operations has a very significant position for Turkey today.

The environment is one of the top priorities for Toyota

Our company has been inspiring other companies across the world in terms of developing environmentally friendly engine types and developing technologies, products, and working methods that are beneficial in this regard.

Being the first company in the world to manufacture hybrid vehicles and the first to manufacture hydrogen fuel cell cars are concrete examples that demonstrate our vision. Toyota, which started with hybrid technology in 1997 and continued this journey with plug-in hybrid and hydrogen-powered vehicles, has also announced that it will create a product range of 30 electric vehicles in the passenger cars and commercial vehicles segments by 2030. We position ourselves to develop strategies and projects in accordance with this global vision in our factory in Turkey in Toyota's European organization.

Our supply industry has proven its competence on the global scale

Today, the automotive supply industry in Turkey has achieved the notion of the global-scale exporter, which manufactures quality products that can compete in global markets, renews and strengthens its product and technology through R&D activities. We, as the main industry, appreciate these achievements and We strive to provide all the support and cooperation required for them to achieve sustainability. In the transformation process of electrification in the world, we recommend that our automotive supply industry keep up with the requirements of this transformation and prepare their future plans and product ranges according to this new situation.
