Reputation of Tofaş
Tofaş, established in Turkey in 1968, is one of the vehicle brands that some people love today with the vehicle models it has released.

Although the company was established in 1968, it took 1971 to design the first vehicle model and put it into mass production. In 1971, Murat 124 was released, and with this vehicle model, it became known both in our country and in many different points of the world. Considering the year it was launched, Murat 124 has been a vehicle model that customers love, with its very ergonomic, pleasant and unique structure.

Despite its late entry into the car industry, Tofaş experienced a shine, albeit for a short time, thanks to the vehicle models it had released like the Murat 124 and the financial and moral aid of the Republic of Turkey and its people. Although this glare lasted for a short time, it has allowed the perception that Turks do not have the infrastructure and experience to produce cars in many parts of the world. Even the destruction of this perception is a very good development for the Republic of Turkey and some facts have been brought to light.

Tofaş launched the new vehicle model, Tofaş Şahin 1.4 and 1.6 vehicle models, after the Murat-101 that it released was very popular. These two vehicle models he has driven, showing more than the expected performance, have become one of the car models that are constantly used and sold in many different parts of the world, especially in our country. The reason why these two vehicle models, which the company has released, are kept so much is that they can use the technology and ergonomic features of the time in the best way and arrange them in the interior of the vehicles in the best way. With these features, the vehicle models that the company released 20 years ago are still being used with pleasure and the market is turning. Even this success has been the ability of the company to organize its products in the best way even during the period of production.

While Tofas designed Şahini, he also designed the vehicle model named Kartal. Simultaneously with Şahin, the vehicle model named Kartal, which entered the vehicle market, was able to give the desired performance. One of the most important features of Kartal is that the luggage compartment is very large. This feature is one of the most used vehicle models, especially by families who love to make long journeys.

Even if Tofaş succeeds in bringing its customer base out of the country with the vehicle models it has released, today it appears to be a subsidiary of the Fiat car brand managed by Koç Holding. Tofaş is a vehicle brand that Turkish people love most and will continue to love.
