Türkiye's electric vehicle fleet reached 464,873 units by July 2026, while public charging sockets totalled 46,665, according to Energy Market Regulatory Authority data. The ratio deteriorated from one socket per four EVs in July 2023 to one per 10 EVs in 2026, falling behind the EU average of one per eight. Fast charging infrastructure stood at 20,461 DC sockets, equating to one fast charger per 23 vehicles.
Why it matters: The widening gap between vehicle adoption and infrastructure deployment signals urgent procurement opportunities for 22 kW AC and 60 kW DC chargers in Turkish urban areas. CPOs and municipal authorities face pressure to accelerate rollout to match the market's 1,318% EV growth and restore competitive ratios with European benchmarks.
