    Deal Route

    How an EV deal for Turkey should move forward

    Step 1

    Check cost-to-port for Turkey first

    Start with FOB, shipping, tariff, and destination-port assumptions for Turkey before anyone treats the deal as commercially workable.

    Step 2

    Confirm compliance and importer-side documents

    Match trim, charging standard, homologation, and importer paperwork to Turkey before moving from shortlist into formal quotation.

    Step 3

    Release the formal quote sheet

    The formal quote sheet is where model, quantity, trade term, shipment window, and document-sensitive cost items are locked into a dealer-usable format.

    Step 4

    Move into booking, VIN pack, and shipment handoff

    Once the route is approved, the discussion should move into invoice trail, VIN confirmation, booking rhythm, and the final handoff pack for loading and delivery.

    Trust Checkpoints

    How buyer review should move before a Turkey order decision

    Cost Accuracy

    Use landed cost to filter weak deals before quoting Turkey

    The first estimate is not the last number. It is the filter that shows whether Turkey is commercially workable before your team spends time on a detailed quote sheet.

    Compliance Control

    Get certification and document risk clear before payment

    Before any deposit or booking decision, the route should already be checked against the certification, charging, customs, and importer-document realities that matter for Turkey.

    Traceable Process

    Keep fast chat and formal paperwork in the right place

    WhatsApp is for speed, shortlisting, and quick clarification. The formal quote trail, proforma, document pack, and dealer-facing follow-up should stay structured and traceable.
