00:00Once upon a time, there was a bus that slowly moved along the roads of Türkiye, carrying people from city to city, its engine sound etched into our childhood memories.
00:12Its name is the Fiat 650E.
00:15Today we are taking you to Turkey in the 1970s.
00:19We dive into the story behind this unique bus, one of the silent heroes of our domestic automotive history, born through the collaboration of Fiat and Karsan.

00:39Come on, now fasten your seat belts because the time machine is about to depart.
00:47The 1970s.
00:49Türkiye was growing rapidly.
00:51Intercity transportation had to be provided not only by trains but also by roads.
00:56However, domestically produced vehicles were limited and imported vehicles were expensive.
01:02At this very moment, Italy's automotive giant Fiat saw the potential in Türkiye and entered into cooperation with Karsan, which was founded in Bursa in 1966.
01:12The purpose of this collaboration was clear.
01:14To produce Türkiye's own bus.
01:17The result is the Fiat 650E bus.
01:18It was built on the Fiat 650 truck model, from which it took its name, the 650E.
01:27It had a solid, rock-solid infrastructure.
01:30This meant that a bus that could continue on its way regardless of the hills and mountains and that did not break down easily emerged.
01:37In the engine section, there was a Fiat 213 type diesel engine.
01:41A 95 horsepower beast.
01:43It was quite adequate considering the conditions of that period.
01:46Moreover, thanks to the 4-speed manual transmission and the famous orphan lever, that is, the intermediate transmission system used in some versions, it did not give up even on slopes.
01:57The Fiat 650E attracted attention not only with its durability but also with the comfort it offered.
02:03This bus, which usually had a capacity of 30 to 40 seats, was considered quite comfortable for the passengers considering the conditions of the period.
02:10High roof structure, wide seat spaces and large windows.
02:16In other words, there was a design that appealed to both the driver and the passenger.
02:20When you step inside the vehicle, the wide steering wheel in the driver's seat immediately draws your attention, making you breathe in the air of that period.
02:29Fiat 650E spread all over Türkiye.
02:32Intercity bus companies preferred this vehicle because it was cheap, durable and highly repairable.
02:41At the same time, municipalities, factories and public institutions also used these buses as transportation vehicles.
02:48Sometimes he accompanied an expatriate family on their journey to Türkiye, and sometimes he took part in a football team's away match adventure.
02:56The added luggage racks, the voice of the attendant shouting next to the doors.
03:02They were all unforgettable memories of the 650E.
03:05This project was not just about producing a vehicle.
03:10Fiat's investment in Türkiye played a key role in the development of the domestic automotive industry.
03:16Karsan improved itself with this collaboration.
03:19In the following years, it became a major player in the production of minibuses and service vehicles.
03:23The Fiat 650E was the starting point of this great transformation.
03:29Türkiye was no longer just a country that imported cars, but was becoming a country that produced its own buses.
03:37It is difficult to find a Fiat 650E on the roads today.
03:42Maybe you can see one as scrap in a village.
03:46But his story remains written in golden letters in Türkiye's industrial history.
03:51If you have ever traveled on this bus,
03:55or if you heard his voice as a child, don't forget to write your memories in the comments.
04:00Who knows, maybe you'll find someone here with whom you traveled on the same bus.
04:05The story of the Fiat 650E does not end here.
