According to its CEO, Ergün Güler, Vestel, the top electronic corporation and appliance manufacturer in Turkey, seeks a place among the major global suppliers in the electric vehicle and mobility ecosystem. According to him, unique products are advantageous. “For instance, with electrical vehicle charging stations, if you have an AC (alternative current) station, you may charge a car in five hours. For almost five years, Vestel has been exporting them; whether you own a wall box in Germany or Spain, it is made by Vestel, Güler said Anadolu Agency (AA).
He stated that while several businesses might produce such a gadget in modest quantities, Vestel will be one of just three organizations in the world engaged in large manufacture.
“720-kilowatt devices are produced in large quantities. The good news is that Vestel will have a 1,000-kilowatt device starting next year,” he said.
The company’s involvement in the industry has grown to include a 23% ownership in Togg, a Turkish electric vehicle manufacturer with its headquarters located in the northern province of Kocaeli. Togg was established in 2018 as a result of the merger of five Turkish enterprises.
Vestel, the largest television producer in Europe, wishes to expand its expertise. There are numerous competitors, particularly from Germany and China. Vestel is an international company making exports to 163 countries, so it is very close to almost every country, Güler stressed.
