Türkiye announced plans to launch its first domestically produced high-speed train next year as part of its efforts to localize railway vehicle manufacturing and strengthen national transportation capabilities, according to the 2026 Presidential Annual Program.

The train will reach a top speed of 225 kilometers per hour, while nine locally made electric trains, each capable of 160 km/h, are also scheduled for operation next year.
The agency added that the project is expected to support the national economy by approximately 3.5 billion Turkish liras (about $84 million) annually, with a production capacity of 12 high-speed train sets per year.
