Recep Tayyip Erdogan receives first Togg with ceremony in capital Ankara
Türkiye's first indigenous electric car Togg took to the road on Monday after its ceremonial delivery to President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
"As of today, we're starting to see Togg on the roads," Erdogan said while receiving the Togg's first T10X model with a ceremony at the presidential complex in the capital Ankara.
Erdogan said Togg has reached its current level as a symbol of Türkiye's technological advancement, economic development, and global reputation.
He added that Togg will adorn streets not only in Türkiye but also worldwide.
Along with first lady Emine Erdogan, the president drove Togg around the presidential complex.
