Togg T10X EV SUV is Turkish president’s gift to Anwar

The Togg electric vehicle (EV) that Turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdogan has gifted Malaysian prime minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim as a symbol of the two countries’ friendship is a white T10X SUV, Bernama reports.

Anwar yesterday drove Erdogan in the left-hand drive vehicle to the Seri Perdana Complex for the exchange of agreements, a joint press conference and a luncheon in conjunction with the latter’s two-day official visit to Malaysia.

Anwar said earlier that he saw the gift as belonging to the country rather than to him, and that he would return the vehicle to the country at the end of his prime ministership.

Established in 2018, Togg is Turkiye’s (or Turkey’s) first major national EV manufacturer. The T10X is its first model, beginning production in 2022 ahead of deliveries in 2023. It can be had in either 218 PS/350 Nm one-motor rear-wheel drive or 435 PS/700 Nm two-motor all-wheel drive versions, and can travel up to 523 km on a full charge.

While most dream of the future, Jonathan Tan dreams of the past, although he's never been there. Fantasises much too often about cruising down Treacher Road (Jalan Sultan Ismail) in a Triumph Stag that actually works, and hopes this stint here will snap him back to present reality.

    Giving Anwar a Togg.. this phrase itself is the stuff of memes. Thereafter, “getting Togg’d” will have certain unfortunate connotations

    • The surviving Palestinians are living proof to genocide bystanders (or worse supporters) such as yourself that despite owning nothing they are the ones who truly possess the essence of dignity and honor by being free from trapped in the systemic shackles of the current cruel, inhumane world order.
