But these discounts come in just two weeks. new ones lost its effect with price increases. The expectation of VCU reduction in the sector is therefore vain for the time being.

Today came an important statement from the Automotive Distributors Association (ODD). ODD Chairman Ali Haydar BozkurtAt the press conference in Istanbul, “SCT resetHe explained that they have submitted their work on this subject to the appropriate authorities. ODD also shared the environment that could emerge after the ordinance.

ODD presented a plan to reduce SCT to zero in 10-15 years:

“Removing SCT from our lives is not something that can happen overnight. Our suggestion here is to gradually phase out the VCU by carrying out the process with proper planning.

In the scenario we are working on ourselves, this is in the range of 10-15 years can happen. Of course, we worked on this by taking into account the sustainability of the country’s economy. The question of how we are going to create added value from this is also very important.”

So why should SCT be phased out step by step according to ODD?

“While the gradual nature of the process allows companies to manage potential losses by sticking to the plan to attract big brands to Turkey will create an atmosphere of trust.

Investments brought to the country are a solution to the losses incurred on the state side of the process as well as the reduction of the SCT.

According to ODD, a spike in car sales may occur if the SCT starts to decline:

ODD also shared possible scenarios if the presented plan is implemented. Accordingly, the gradual SCT reduction over 10-15 years will increase the total car market to 2.25 million units; and its annual car sales of more than 1.5 million can take it out.

In addition, with the realization of the plan, more brands/models can be produced outside sales, with a turnover of $30 billion. to the level of USD 50 billion may come true.

While all this is going on, another age change is being made to ODD: it will now be called “ODMD”!

ODD also announced at the press conference that the association would reorganize. ODD, now”Automotive Distributors Mobility Association (ODMD)will bear his name.
