Summary sheet
The project, based on a Cooperation Agreement signed between the Promoter and PSA Peugeot-Citroën S.A. and Fiat Auto SPA, comprises the development, production and sale of small, entry-level, light commercial vehicles.
The project uses existing capacity at Tofas’ Bursa plant to build on existing cooperation between Fiat and Peugeot in the sector.
No EIA is required for this project. The EIB reviewed the promoter’s environmental procedures during appraisal. In 1998, Tofas became the first Turkish car manufacturer to receive the ISO 14001 certificate, which it maintains to-date.
EU procurement legislation does not apply to the project. The Promoter’s procurement procedures satisfy EIB’s procurement policy.
