Karsan

Maintains Its Pioneering

Role in Europe with Its 100%

Electric Product Range

Pioneering the transformation of the public transport with the
vision of being one step ahead in the future of mobility, Karsan
left its mark at Busworld 2023, held in Brussels, the capital city
of Belgium. Okan Baş, CEO of Karsan, one of the most atten-
tion-grabbing brands at the fair through its completed 100%
electric product range and remarkable growth performance,
said, “We are uninterruptedly growing in Europe, our primary
target market. We passed 2022 as the leader in Europe thanks
to 100% electric e-JEST and e-ATAK. Our rise continued in the
first half of 2023. Elevating our share in the European electric
urban minibus and bus transport market over 5 tones through
Karsan electric vehicles in the first half of the year to 6.7%, we
ranked 4th in the market. E-JEST, leader of the electric minibus
market in Europe for three years, keeps this position by reac- 55
hing a 24% market share in the first half of this year.

We will be on the roads in 22 countries with a total of 1,000
electric vehicles

On the other hand, our 100% electric model e-ATAK, which has led the electric
minibus class in Europe for two years, became the most preferred vehicle of
its class in Europe with a market share of 26% in the first half of this year, too.
Stating that their targets for 2023 are also as ambitious as Karsan’s vehicles,
Okan Baş pointed out, “At the end of the year, we will be on the roads in 22
countries with a total of 1,000 electric vehicles. In North America, one of
our new target markets, we have already started to provide service with 30
e-JESTs. We will increase this number to over 100 by the end of the year.
We will launch our right-hand drive e-JEST model in December as part of the
agreement we made for the Japanese market. We have set a sales target of 300
units in the Japanese market for the next three years. en çok tercih edilen bu iki
modelimiz, bir kez daha liderlik koltuğuna oturdu.” dedi
