The last corner is being entered for the domestic electric car. In addition to the data shared by Togg, there has been some development in factory construction and battery. When we look at the statements made, it is estimated that there will be no delay in the date of mass production and release. Here are the latest developments…
Togg comes to an end in factory construction
According to a social media post made by Togg today, the construction of the factory is almost complete. In fact, when we look at the data, we see that the paint plant is 99 percent complete. Similarly, the body facility was 97 percent complete and the assembly facility 95 percent complete.
A local competitor is coming to Togg!
HABAŞ, which bought Honda’s production facilities in Gebze last year, completed the preparations for domestic automobile production.
It was also said that partial trials with 208 robots were started this month. Considering all these, it is predicted that there will be no disruption in the mass production process, which is planned to start around November.
A pleasing development in battery production for Togg
Togg had previously reached an agreement with the Chinese company Farasis on battery production. It was said that Siro, which was established as a result of this, will produce 15 gigawatt-hour battery cells and modules. Now, some information about the technical features of these batteries has been announced.
According to the news, the Chinese company Farasis, which is Togg’s partner in battery production, will produce its new generation batteries, which can go 250 km with an 8-minute charge (80%+ filling) and offer 1.5 million km of life, at Siro’s Gemlik facilities. However, the integration of the fourth generation, new type batteries, into Togg vehicles will be in 2025.
However, it should be noted that the batteries to be used in Togg’s first vehicles are also at a good point in market standards. Because it will be able to fill 80 percent in 30 minutes. Of course, let’s also say that the model mentioned in these data is not a 500, but a 300 km range model. However, the fact that this period will decrease to almost 1 in 4 in 2 years is quite a development.
In addition, according to a statement made by the Minister of Energy and Natural Resources, Fatih Dönmez, lithium ion battery production will be possible with lithium carbonate produced by liquid boron wastes in the coming period. The explanation on the subject is as follows:
We signed a cooperation protocol with Aspilsan and Aselsan for the use of lithium carbonate produced by Eti Maden from liquid boron waste in the production of lithium ion batteries. Domestic lithium will hopefully be the power source of domestic technology. There may be a new good news in 2022
