He stated that leading the domestic Design Studio during the 6-year process of Turkey's first domestic electric vehicles, the T10X and T10F projects, has been a great source of pride and happiness. "I am leaving the Togg family, which I joined in 2019, as of this month. Over the past 6 years, it has been a great source of pride and happiness for me to lead the domestic Design Studio for Turkey's first domestic electric vehicles, the T10X and T10F projects. Together with my team, we achieved significant successes not only in vehicle designs but also in Trugo charging units, conceptual designs exhibited at international fairs, and many other projects. Today, I have reached the end of my projects related to Togg. However, I firmly believe that great successes will continue from where I left off. I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to my Design Studio team, who have always been by my side during this process and with whom I have greatly enjoyed working. I also express my endless gratitude to all my colleagues who made the realization of the T10X and T10F possible, built this company from scratch, and changed their lives for great dreams. I am also grateful to Murat Günak, who guided me on my journey of design leadership, and to the Pininfarina team, who shared their knowledge and experiences with me throughout the process. Now is the time for new projects, new journeys, and new excitements. I hope to see you again soon with new developments." he shared.
