Science, Industry and Technology Minister Nihat Ergun said that the Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey (TUBITAK) would provide 100 percent in research aid and the Science Ministry would purchase 200 electric cars over five years. "Turkey will make a name for itself with domestic electric car production and development," Turkish Ergun has said, adding that Turkey did not want to miss the opportunity to have a say in the electric car sector, as it has lost out before in the fossil fuel vehicle technology sector. Ergun added that this endeavor was expected to result in a collaboration of universities, as well as private and public sector players.
