Following the remarkable introduction of its first indigenous car stereotype, Türkiye is getting ready to create battery cells by partnering up with a global company.
With the attendance of top officials of both companies, Türkiye's Automobile Joint Venture Group (TOGG) and Farasis Energy – a leading Chinese battery manufacturing company established in the US – signed a letter of intent to produce battery cells of Türkiye's first homegrown automobile, at the IT Valley in Kocaeli province of Türkiye on October 20.
Releasing a statement on the partnership, Minister of Industry and Technology Mustafa Varank said, “The battery cell and package of Türkiye's homegrown car will be produced in partnership with Farasis in Türkiye. Thus, new abilities in battery technologies will be developed in our country, import dependency will be lowered and mobility ecosystem will be enhanced."
