Possibility of Turkey to transit Electric Vehicle-based transportation / Transit Elektrikli Araç Tabanlı Ulaşıma Türkiye'nin imkânı

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. Özet: Elektrikli araçlar (EV) yaygın olarak içten yanmalı motorların cazip rakipleri olarak görülmektedir. Ancak, ekonomik zorlukları keşfetmek için EV’ler önem taşımaktadır. Bu makale transit EV-tabanlı ulaşım açısından Türkiye'nin potansiyelini analiz tmektedir. Başarılı olması için, ülkenin alternatif yakıtlar hakkındaki daha önceki uygulamaları tanıtılmaktadır ve dizel motorlara karşı elektrikli araçların maliyet etkinliği tahmin edilmektedir. Analiz EV’nin dizel motor tahrikli aracın daha düşük maliyet sağladığını göstermiştir. Son olarak, Türkiye'de EV pazarı yaratmak için teklif ve öneriler verilmiştir.
