Turkey – A brief tour of the factory in Sakarya by T&BB last month and an interview with Kerem Erman, Commercial Vehicles Deputy General Manager of Otokar Otomotiv ve Savunma Sanayi A.Ş (Otokar) revealed the clear ambitions of the Turkish bus and truck builder to become a mainstream supplier of electromobility products in the commercial vehicle markets of Europe Turkey and beyond by 2025.
Erman said Otokar was looking to develop a complete portfolio of electrically-powered vehicles for the on-road commercial vehicle segment within the next two and a half years and that the company would be unveiling new products periodically over this timeframe.
