Ulu Motor, subsidiary of the Ulubaslar Group, and Skyworth, manufacturer of Skywell electric vehicles, have agreed to open a state-of-the-art battery production facility in Türkiye. The plant, featuring an advanced 800 + 4C architecture, is set to commence operations by the first quarter of 2024.
Istanbul, Turkey - July 4, 2023 /MarketersMEDIA/ —

Skyworth, the parent company of Skywell, bolstered its position in the global market competition last year by inaugurating a 1.2 GWh battery factory in Jiangsu province, China. Spanning 22,000 square meters, the facility houses a battery module and two battery pack production lines. Recognizing the investment potential in Türkiye, the company has partnered with Ulu Motor to establish a ‘Battery Development and Production Facility’ in Türkiye.
With the production of batteries at the new facility, the charging power of the batteries will increase from 120 kW to 480 kW, enabling an 80% charge in just 8 minutes. Additionally, this battery production and investment will encompass not only vehicle batteries but also batteries incorporating energy storage systems. The 'Energy Storage Battery System' will enable energy storage from solar power.
A Bold Step towards Europe
The Skywell ET5 model has become one of the most remarkable electric SUVs, making it one of the top-selling cars in Türkiye in 2022. With its powerful design, fast-charging battery technology, a range of up to 642 km in urban areas, semi-autonomous driving capabilities and an 8-year 150,000 km battery warranty, Skywell has established itself as a significant player in the European electric vehicle market.
The successful sales performance of Skywell's first model, the fully electric ET5, in Türkiye has led to significant growth and activation of its headquarters in China. Thanks to Ulu Motor's rapid success in sales, the majority of Skywell's management and distribution in a total of 15 countries, mainly in Europe, is now handled by the Turkish company.
Skyhouse, more than a Showroom
Skywell's exclusive experience centres, known as Skyhouse, introduced by Ulu Motor, offer more than just an automotive showroom. Customers visiting Skyhouse can spend time in dedicated experiential areas and access meeting spaces while also benefiting from discounted charging options through ZES DC charging points. This service is not limited to Turkey but is targeted for all 15 countries where Ulu Motor operates as a distributor.

David Toutain witnessed the birth of the Michelin Green Star in 2020. His eponymous restaurant in Paris was among the first to be awarded while Feuille, his Hong Kong outpost, secured one within a year of its 2023 opening. But even when Michelin quietly retired the award this year, he still never understood exactly how it was assessed. “I have no idea,” he says. “I don’t know the rules. I don’t know anything about it, to be very honest.” His confusion points to a larger problem. The Green Star...
Contemporary photography museum Fotografiska’s newest outpost in Shenzhen is strikingly different from its original venue in Stockholm, Sweden – in the former customs building on the Stadsgardshamnen waterfront – or its Shanghai location, which opened in 2023 inside the Guang San Warehouse. In Shenzhen, a technological metropolis where sleek high-rises and futuristic cultural venues continue to emerge, the museum integrates into the modern urban landscape with a crisp white rectangular facade...

Halloween in Europe does not have to mean flying to one of the usual capitals. Some of the most atmospheric — and unsettling — stories are found in smaller historic cities and towns, where medieval streets, old legends and genuinely macabre landmarks are still part of the landscape.
