Possibility of Turkey to Transit Electric Vehicle-based Transportation
Journal Title: International Journal of Automotive Engineering and Technologies - Year 2013, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
Electric vehicles (EV) are widely viewed as attractive rivals to internal combustion engines. However, to explore economic challenges of EVs is of crucial importance. This paper analyses the potential of Turkey to transit EV-based transportation. In order to succeed this, previous applications of the country about alternative fuels are introduced and cost effectiveness of electric vehicles against diesel engines is estimated. The analysis indicated that EV provides lower cost than diesel engine driven vehicle. Finally, proposal and recommendations are given to create an EV market in Turkey.
