GÜNSEL - The Mediterranean's Environment-Friendly Car
GÜNSEL, of which all plant investments and R&D processes have been financed through equity by the Near East University, continues its mass production preparations as a debt-free company.
After 10 years of work at the Near East University, we established GÜNSEL in 2016 and started to work on developing a 100 percent electric car GÜNSEL. We launched the B9, the first model of GÜNSEL, of which development and prototyping processes were completed through equity, in February 2020.
Today, the investments and equipment purchases of our R&D, prototyping and management center located on the Near East University campus in Nicosia, as well as our P2 facility, which is the first phase of our mass production facilities, have been completed.
With the R&D power of Near East University, which London-based international higher education rating agency Times Higher Education has shown as one of the top 200 universities in the world in the field of Computer Science and Engineering, 13 prototypes have been produced and more than 10 thousand test drives have been carried out, all processes of which were completed by GÜNSEL engineers and designers.
With the completion of the R&D and prototyping stages of GÜNSEL, which carried out its activities on the campus of Near East University during the 2016-2022 period, the company was established in 2022 to initiate the mass production preparations.
