by mark.thompson business editor

Ankara, December 24, 2025 – Families with three or more children in Turkey could soon receive financial assistance towards purchasing a vehicle. A new program is being developed to make automobile ownership more accessible, notably for those with limited incomes.

New support Program Targets Larger Families

the initiative aims to provide affordable financing options for families needing more spacious transportation.

  • A vehicle purchase support program is in the works for families with three or more children.
  • The program will focus on providing long-term financing options.
  • These financing options will be tailored to the purchasing power of lower-income households.
  • The Confederation of Turkish tradesmen and Craftsmen (TESK) has also called for the re-enactment of a “Scrap incentive Law.”

According to information obtained by the AA correspondent, the upcoming program is designed to ease the financial burden of car ownership for larger families. The focus is on creating long-term financing solutions that align with the budgets of those with lower incomes. It’s a move that acknowledges the practical needs of growing households.

calls for a “Scrap Incentive Law” Resurface

Beyond the new family support program, there’s a push to revive an older incentive. Bendevi Palandöken, Chairman of the Confederation of Turkish Tradesmen and Craftsmen (TESK), has formally requested the re-enactment of a “Scrap Incentive Law.” Palandöken argues that such a law would not only benefit consumers by allowing them to upgrade to more comfortable vehicles but would also contribute to environmental protection.

What is a “Scrap Incentive Law”? These laws typically offer financial incentives – frequently enough rebates or tax breaks – to vehicle owners who trade in older, less fuel-efficient cars for newer, more environmentally amiable models.

The potential for both a targeted family support program and a broader “scrap Incentive Law” suggests a multi-pronged approach to stimulating the Turkish automotive market and addressing both affordability and environmental concerns. The details of both initiatives, including eligibility requirements and the amount of financial assistance offered, are still being finalized.
