An electric vehicle experience designed for Turkey
The story of Lumen Motors, which brings vehicle, charging and software into a single experience.
Lumen Motors Turkey was founded in 2021 with a design and engineering centre in Kozyatağı, Istanbul. Our starting point was simple: electric cars had matured technically, but the ownership experience was still fragmented. The car came from one place, charging from another, software from yet another. We wanted to bring them together in a single experience.
We test our models for Anatolian road, climate and infrastructure conditions: -20 °C winter tests in Erzurum, A/C and battery cooling tests at 45 °C in Antalya, and long climb tests on the Bolu Mountain and Taurus passes. We declare range under the laboratory standard WLTP and also publish realistic range bands for winter and motorway speed scenarios.
The electricity of our service and experience centres is renewable-certified. At end of life, batteries are directed to second-life (stationary energy storage) or recycling channels. We aim to make all our charging stations solar-assisted by 2028.
Since 2021 we have delivered more than 14,000 cars; we operate seven fast-charging stations across four regions of Turkey and offer charging at 3,000+ points through partner networks. In our post-delivery survey, 94% of owners said they recommend Lumen to people around them.
Range verified with real-world data, reliable even outside the city.
10-80% charge in 22 minutes (L3 GT) with battery pre-conditioning.
Survey, Wallbox and installation in one package; suitable for shared-parking complexes too.
Unlock, pre-condition and monitor charging from the app; the software updates itself.
A battery protection cage, nine airbags and semi-autonomous driving assistance.
If charge runs out, a mobile charger or tow is free, nationwide.
