Electric vehicles sold in Turkey with a 10% special tax benefit are poised to make an impact on the market in 2025 by combining affordability with advanced technology.

A new era is charging ahead in Turkey’s automotive scene, with electric vehicles (EVs) offering both cutting-edge technology and budget-friendly pricing—thanks to a special tax advantage. In 2025, models that qualify for Turkey’s 10% Special Consumption Tax (SCT) rate are poised to make a strong impact on the market.

This SCT incentive gives brands the upper hand, allowing them to introduce new EV models at competitive prices. With a wave of fresh launches expected next year, we spotlight the electric vehicles that currently fall below the 10% SCT threshold—making them ones to watch for savvy drivers.

But a word to the wise: these price tags are not set in stone. Exchange rate fluctuations or shifts in SCT thresholds could affect final costs. If the Turkish lira weakens, some EVs may exceed the 10% SCT limit, potentially moving them into a higher tax bracket. Conversely, adjustments to the SCT base level could make certain higher-end models more accessible.
