In recent years, advances in electric vehicle (EV) technologies have brought the use of alternatives such as electric minibuses in public transportation onto the agenda. These vehicles offer potential particularly in terms of reducing carbon emissions, improving energy efficiency, and supporting environmental sustainability goals in urban transport.
In Türkiye, the technology-driven transformation focused on energy efficiency in the panel van segment has been taking shape since 2025 within the framework of smart control modules, regenerative braking, and standards-compliant electrical safety requirements. Developed for panel vans heavily used in urban transportation, these solutions aim to reduce fuel/energy consumption while lowering fleet operating costs and mitigating environmental impacts. Sectoral and Technical Transformation Energy management in panel vans is based on balancing engine or electric propulsion load depending on driving conditions, recovering energy from regenerative braking systems, and optimizing auxiliary consumers (air conditioning, infotainment, auxiliary pumps, etc.). Regenerative braking technologies…
As of 2025, the tractor unit segment in Türkiye’s Heavy Commercial Vehicles production is preparing to align more strictly with international emissions and electronic safety regulations. The Euro 7 emissions standard and electronics-focused vehicle safety standards are leading to a reshaping of production infrastructure.
As of 2025, charging infrastructure for electric trucks is entering a significant phase of development in terms of both technical capability and standardization. Steps are being taken to expand high-power DC charging systems suitable for the Light and Heavy Commercial Vehicles segment, with the aim of establishing infrastructure for long-range transport in compliance with international standards.
As of 2025, electric truck production in Türkiye is entering a new phase in which stricter compliance with standards is being observed, driven by both global emissions targets and safety-focused technical regulations. Domestic manufacturers are moving toward vehicle architectures aligned with European Union and UNECE type approval frameworks, particularly through fully electric platforms developed in the heavy commercial segment and the battery solutions integrated into them.
In recent years, construction machinery production in Türkiye has been undergoing a significant transformation in terms of both digital technologies and compliance with international technical regulations. Electric, hybrid, and sensor-controlled next-generation machines are laying the groundwork for manufacturers to develop safer, more energy-efficient solutions aligned with international norms.
Electric and hybrid-powered construction machinery are increasingly being preferred worldwide due to rising environmental awareness and emissions control requirements—as well as criteria such as energy costs and operational efficiency. However, for these machines to be safe, efficient, and sustainable, compliance with international norms is essential in areas such as electrical and electronic system safety, electromagnetic compatibility, and overall machine safety.
As of 2025, the production and use of concrete equipment such as concrete pumps, concrete mixers (transit mixers), and concrete batching plants in Türkiye is entering a notable evolution process oriented toward automation infrastructure and international standards compliance. Increasing sensitivity—particularly in concrete pumps and transport-mixing vehicles—to standards compliance, production quality, and on-site safety is ushering in a new era for both manufacturers and users across the sector.
As of 2025, production activities carried out in Türkiye across the mobile crane, tower crane, forklift, and telescopic handler categories are evolving toward a structure more closely aligned with international safety standards. Strengthening design, structural integrity, and electronic control infrastructures in lifting equipment supports the adoption of a more integrated and safety-oriented approach within the product portfolios of domestic manufacturers.
As of 2025, a more systematic approach is coming to the fore in Türkiye’s road construction and maintenance equipment sector, both in terms of applied technologies and standards compliance. A production and supply approach that addresses safety, performance, and environmental requirements together for road rollers, asphalt pavers, and compactors is becoming increasingly evident in the product portfolios of both domestic manufacturers and global brands operating in Türkiye.
