With the first Togg C SUV versions descending from the lines of the factory in Gemlik, we can now take a closer look at the detailed equipment.
The electric car adventure for the domestic automobile startup Togg, whose roots go back to 2018, has officially started as of today. As a result of remarkable progress in a short period of four years, the first mass-produced models came off the line from the factory built in Gemlik. The first models by Togg, which we had the chance to see closely at the special event, will be in the C SUV segment as planned. For the model, whose two important information such as name and price are not shared for now, we can say that the framework has been determined to a large extent on the technical and hardware side. In the event, which was held for the models that we saw being put into production by adhering to the concept version to a large extent, we had the chance to look at the equipment of the vehicles in detail for the first time.
What you need to know in numbers for the Togg C-SUV
The Togg front highlights the C SUV range by dividing it into two on engine basis. In the double electric motor version, we see that the combination of the units positioned at the front and the rear yields not bad values such as 435 horsepower and 660 Nm torque. The vehicle, which will have a total weight of 2,030 kilograms, will be able to accelerate from 0 to 100 in 4.8 seconds in this combination. The only electric motor to be offered in more affordable lower versions will be positioned on the rear axle. Let’s not forget that the engines to be used in the vehicle are supplied from Bosch.

Battery and charging dynamics are also vitally important since it is an electric vehicle. In our meetings with Togg officials, we were informed that a range of up to 510 kilometers is possible in the single electric motor version. In dual electric motor models, this value is expected to be in the range of 480-500 kilometers. In this infrastructure, where fast charging support will not be overlooked, it will be possible to reach from 20 percent to 80 percent occupancy level in 25 minutes.
Trugo is also vital for Togg
Togg’s Trugo company will also be a vital supporter in expanding the charging network in Turkey. All electric car owners will be able to benefit from Trugo systems, which set off with a coverage area covering all 81 provinces. It is absolutely important that fast charging technology will be supported from the very first moment at Trugo charging points. According to the announcement plan, which includes more than 600 locations in 81 provinces, it is aimed to locate charging points at intervals of 25 and 50 kilometers depending on the traffic density.
What caught our eye from the equipment used in mass production
With Togg’s first models being taken out of mass production, we had the chance to see the details that will reach the end user. The cockpit of the model, which we see to a large extent faithful to the concept in terms of exterior design, has the same feeling to a large extent. One of the most curious parts shown in the concept version and whether it will be available for sale was the cameras that replaced the traditional mirrors. The fact that this equipment was included in the first models off the band reveals the affordability of the upper versions. One of the points we took a closer look at in the exterior was the tire and wheel set. In this context, we see that the 19-inch wheel set and Lassa’s Competus series tires will be placed on the vehicle.
There may be a surprise in the color options
Announced hours before the factory opening, the color options were also appreciated with their meanings. The colors chosen come down to the foundations of the regions from which they are named. Togg is located in the shade of the olive trees of Gemlik, where its campus is located. their blue watersreflecting the friendliness and passion of Anatolian lands redOltu stone your blacknessHighlighting Kula’s natural structure and rocks the grayThe natural wonders of Cappadocia, the fairy chimneys of the earth and sand beigeDazzling Pamukkale travertines its whitenesswill meet in the exterior colors of the C-SUV.
In addition to all these, President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, who attended the opening today, spoke with the Togg team about colors. Emphasizing the Black Sea after the messages that colors carry from different regions, Erdoğan also highlighted his hometown Rize and gave messages on the addition of green to the colors. Erdogan; “When the Black Sea is mentioned, green comes to mind. Adding a fan of green would not be bad.” he stated. This brings green to the fore in the new colors that are likely to be added to the family in the coming period.
When we open the doors of the C SUV and sit inside, we can see that the quality of the materials used exceeds expectations. The leather upholstery on the seats and the wooden details on the console are as striking as the combination of digital panels. In the cockpit, it is possible to say that the digital screen combinations we saw in the concept have been preserved with minor revisions. In addition to the digital driver and multimedia screens, the climate control and extra screens for the passenger are positioned in the mass production version. As you can imagine, it will not be surprising that some of these screens are not included in the lower versions. We also liked the graphic quality of the screens and the software interface at the first stage. The introduction of the heating function in the rear seats and the electric tailgate are also worth highlighting under the comfort heading. in the model Luggage volume of 441 liters Let me also point out that it will be presented at this point. We are very accustomed to Land Rover models, which we saw in the C SUV, and lastly in the Kia EV6. Meridian Premium Sound System It is also noteworthy that it is positioned.

The release date for the C SUV, which was announced to start sales through pre-order in February 2023, was marked as March 2023. Models with sales planning under the leadership of digital channels without intermediaries bring a new user experience in this respect. One of the biggest surprises of the startup, which wants to add the C Sedan model to its range on the same infrastructure in the next 2.5 years, was the update in its product range. Togg, which has removed the HB body type from the model lineup, which was first announced as SUV, Sedan and Hatchback, will follow the trends and use a Cross model with Coupe stripes. After these models, which will all be C segments, the first different segment transition will be to the B SUV. Siro, established by Togg in partnership with China-based Farasis, will soon start working on the battery production facility in Gemlik.
