Türkiye’s First Chinese-Origin Locally Produced Cars Are Coming!
The first models will roll off the production line in September.
The joint venture group Urzat, founded by ATMO Group — one of the world’s leading global automotive sales and distribution companies — and Urzema Holding, one of Türkiye’s leading industrial corporations, will begin production in Eskişehir as of September.
Within this scope, SWM will become the first Chinese brand to start production in Türkiye, while in December, another Chinese brand, JAC, will also begin production of its new electric model, the E30X, through the Urzat project.
ATMO Group CEO Anton Chernov stated, “Our production journey begins in Türkiye. Our goal is to bring the power center currently held by Chinese brands in the automotive sector to Eskişehir through the Urzat project.”
Urzema Holding CEO Murat Ertaş emphasized that the supply chain is the new game-changer in today’s global world, saying:
“The supply chain should shift from the global market toward Türkiye. Some brands, when investing in other countries, also bring their sub-industries and assemble their own country’s products here, presenting them as if they were locally made. Instead, together with our supply chain team, we have worked to establish a broad network of talented local suppliers in Türkiye — and we have succeeded.”
