Turkey Automotive Market Report by Type (Passenger Vehicles, Commercial Vehicles, Two Wheelers), Propulsion Type (Gasoline, Diesel, Electric, and Others), Sales Channel (Dealerships, Online Sales, Direct Sales, and Others), and Region 2026-2034
The Turkey automotive market size reached USD 28.2 Billion in 2025. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach USD 43.3 Billion by 2034, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 4.75% during 2026-2034. The market is experiencing significant growth mainly driven by robust domestic demand, strategic location and strong manufacturing capabilities. Government incentives, growing middle class population base and increased foreign investment further drive the market growth, positioning Turkey as a pivotal hub in the global automotive industry.
TURKEY AUTOMOTIVE MARKET TRENDS:
Rising Adoption of Electric Vehicles
The electric vehicle (EV) adoption in Turkey is gaining significant momentum, driven by increasing investment in EV infrastructure and manufacturing. For instance, in the first two months of 2024 Turkey's electric vehicle (EV) sales reached 8,255 units positioning the country at sixth place among EU states. The T10X fully electric SUV by Turkish car manufacturer Togg contributed significantly to this increase. With its recent surge in electric car sales, Turkey is anticipated to be among the top five EU countries for EV sales. The Turkish government has implemented various incentives to accelerate the shift towards electric mobility, including tax reductions, subsidies for EV purchases, and reduced registration fees. These measures are designed to make EVs more affordable and attractive to consumers. In addition to financial incentives, the government is actively supporting the expansion of EV charging infrastructure across the country. Investments are being made to establish a widespread network of charging stations, ensuring that EV owners have convenient access to charging points, both in urban areas and along major highways. This development is crucial in addressing range anxiety and enhancing the practicality of owning an EV.
Rise in Domestic Production
Turkey is witnessing a significant expansion in its domestic manufacturing capacities, particularly in the realm of electric and hybrid vehicles. Leading Turkish automotive companies are investing heavily in the development and production of electric and hybrid vehicles. This initiative is part of a broader national strategy to increase local production and reduce dependency on imports. Additionally, global automotive giants with a presence in Turkey are ramping up their production lines to include electric and hybrid models. These companies are leveraging Turkey's skilled labor force and competitive manufacturing costs to produce cutting-edge vehicles that meet international standards. Government support is also pivotal in this expansion. Policies such as incentives for local production, investment in advanced manufacturing technologies, and fostering a supportive regulatory environment are driving this growth. For instance, in 2023, the Turkish auto industry witnessed a significant rise in production reaching nearly 1.5 million units marking the highest output since 2019. The sector experienced an 8.6% annual increase with a 17.5% rise in car production. The total production, including heavy commercial vehicles also soared by 55.2% as compared to the previous year. The expansion of local manufacturing capacities in electric and hybrid vehicles not only strengthens Turkey's automotive industry but also aligns with global trends toward sustainable and environmentally friendly transportation solutions.
