Ford Otosan’s factory in the factory in Romania Craiova’daki Ford Otosan Chairman Ali Koç speaking in the presentation of the new models, “Koç Holding, Turkey comes out of Türkiye.” He also responded to his claims.
Speaking to Bloomberght, Ali Koç said, “Now there are too many corruption, slander, false-false information, false-wrong allegations. We are accused of a movement in the stock market, we are targeted by TÜSİAD.
We are investing abroad, they say that they are escaping from the country. Unfortunately, we live in such a country that those who say the truth have to prove that they say the truth. However, those who lie, knowingly make the wrong claims, unfortunately the public can keep the public. You are trying to prove that so much investment, so much responsibility, so many problems are not real. As I just stated, for example, if we look at Ford Otosan, we have an investment expansion. There is no such thing as standing in Türkiye and going here. No sir, Ford will take his shares from us, no sir was not satisfied with his partnership with Ford Koç. These are all superstitions. Ford’s most important partnership, the most successful partnership with us. When you look at the world. ”
There is a slowdown in electric vehicles
Koç said that customers are experiencing range of electrical vehicles.
Now, once we do not plan on our own. I’m on the Ford. My brother is on the Fiat-Stellantis side. We have such a Great Wall of China. I don’t know much about what’s going on there, and he doesn’t know much about what’s happening. But if we went back 5-6 years in the electrification business, we were making strong predictions in our 5-year estimates. Now, as we have reached, the sector has started to make high forecasts in our 5 -year predictions. Because there is a slowdown in electrification, no matter what he says. There are many reasons for this. One of them will of course be cheaper at this stage. Second -hand values are slightly below expected. 350-400 kilometers have a range. Even the person in need of a range of 40, 50 kilometers per day is having a range of interests in these jobs. Range Anxiety is the subject we call. However, of course there is a risk of fire from time to time. In addition, such a brake is pressed because the charging infrastructure has not yet developed. Of course, the danger of China comes from the bangir. In our country, a lot of brands are establishing dealerships.
BYD is investing. Will make a production facility. There is news with Cherry’s future to Samsun. These are very good things for Türkiye. But when we look forward, a lot will change from battery technology to car design to market shares. More water will flow under the bridge. But now it’s a little brake. Regulations need to change to some extent. Here, electricity prices, which are not part of the automotive sector, are very important. Important electrical prices for this place and Romania. European countries and European Union needs to give incentives to increase production. So, the user needs to give incentives. He needs to give the manufacturer incentives. It needs to improve the infrastructure, it needs to support electricity prices. Otherwise targeted figures will not be easy to come in today’s conjuncture, “he said.
