REQUEST FROM TESK FOR ‘SCRAP INCENTIVE LAW’ FOR AUTOMOBILES!

Bendevi Palandöken, Chairman of the Confederation of Turkish Tradesmen and Craftsmen (TESK), requested that the “Scrap Incentive Law” be re-enacted to protect the environment and enable people to ride more comfortable vehicles.
ISTANBUL, January 2, 2026 — Families with three or more children in Turkey could soon receive financial support to purchase a vehicle, as a new program is being developed to ease access to automobiles. The initiative aims to offer long-term financing options tailored to the budgets of lower-income households.
A Boost for Big Families and the Environment?
The potential program comes alongside calls for a renewed “scrap incentive law” to encourage the replacement of older vehicles.
- A vehicle purchase support program is in the works for families with at least three children.
- The program will focus on providing affordable, long-term financing options.
- The Confederation of Turkish Tradesmen and Craftsmen (TESK) is advocating for a “scrap incentive law.”
- The scrap incentive aims to both protect the environment and improve vehicle safety.
The proposed support program is designed to make car ownership more attainable for larger families, according to information obtained by the AA correspondent. It’s a recognition that growing families often have unique transportation needs and may face financial hurdles when it comes to vehicle purchases.
Beyond direct purchase assistance, there’s a growing push for a “scrap incentive law.” Bendevi Palandöken, Chairman of the Confederation of Turkish Tradesmen and Craftsmen (TESK), has formally requested the re-enactment of such a law. Palandöken argued that a scrap incentive would not only benefit citizens by allowing them to drive more comfortable vehicles but would also contribute to environmental protection.
What exactly is a “scrap incentive law”? These programs typically offer financial benefits – often rebates or tax breaks – to vehicle owners who retire older, less fuel-efficient cars and replace them with newer, more environmentally friendly models.
The details of both the family support program and the potential scrap incentive law are still being finalized. It remains to be seen whether the proposals will be passed by the Turkish Grand National Assembly and, if so, when discounted car opportunities will become available to eligible families.
