Exhibition featured over 1,324 exhibitors from 55+ countries!
The positive development of the Turkish automotive industry started in the 1950’s with the approach to counterweigh
the large
import volumes. By the late 1960’s, the industry gained momentum when the first joint ventures with foreign
car manufacturers
were established. Companies such as Renault, Ford and Fiat continued those successful
investments until the present time.
During the 1990’s, as other international manufacturers like Toyota, Honda, Hyundai, Isuzu and Mercedes-Benz
entered the
market, Turkey rapidly became an automotive production base which not only caters to one-time
developments of the industry
but rather holds long-term development options.
Today, Turkey has a thriving automotive sector, demonstrating substantial
growth in the past. All players involved,
including local authorities and the government, are participating in creating
conditions to increase output in the future.
2 million units by 2015 !
At the end of 2007, the production capacity of the Turkish automotive industry exceeded 1.3 million vehicles, making it
the world’s
16th‐largest automotive manufacturer and one of the leading production bases in Europe. The industry in
Turkey is currently
aiming to increase production to reach 2 million units by 2015.
