Two Chinese automakers are starting production in a single factory in Eskişehir. The joint venture group Urzat, established by Urzema Holding, will begin production in Eskişehir as of September. Within this scope, SWM becomes the first Chinese brand to start production in Türkiye. In December, another Chinese brand, JAC, will also begin production of its new electric vehicle, the E30X, through the Urzat project.

ATMO Group CEO Anton Chernov stated, “Our goal is to bring the power center currently held by Chinese brands in the automotive industry to Eskişehir through the Urzat project.” Urzema Holding CEO Murat Ertaş added, “We have worked to establish a wide supply chain network with talented local suppliers in Türkiye — and we have succeeded in doing so.”
