Interesting Background on the Country of Turkey

"Interesting Background on the Country of Turkey

This month, Formula 1 touches down in one of the world's most intriguing and entertaining cities, Istanbul. Although this will be Panasonic Toyota Racing's first visit, Toyota's presence in Turkey has blossomed rapidly in recent years.

From small beginnings as an importer, Toyota Turkey now has a nationwide dealer network offering full service back-up, and a production facility where it builds the Sedan, Family (saloon and estate) and Verso models of the Corolla, which are exported to over 30 nations. The factory in Adapazari has capacity of 150,000 vehicles a year and employs the renowned Toyota Production System (TPS) for quality and efficiency. It's also one of the largest manufacturing sites in Turkey and ranks as one of Toyota's 10 biggest production plants outside Japan."
