File No. 001-41813
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We hereby submit the responses of Turbo Energy,
S.A. (the “Company”) to the comments of the staff (the “Staff”) of the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission (the “Commission”) set forth in the Staff’s letter, dated December 3, 2024, providing the Staff’s
comments with respect to the above-referenced Company’s annual report on Form 20-F, for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023
(the “Form 20-F”). Concurrently with the submission of this letter, the Company is submitting its Amendment No. 1 to
the Form 20-F (the “Amendment No. 1”) together with certain exhibits via EDGAR with the Commission.
For the convenience of the Staff, each of the
Staff’s comments is included and is followed by the corresponding response of the Company. Unless the context indicates otherwise,
references in this letter to “we,” “us” and “our” refer to the Company.
Form 20-F for the Year Ended December 31, 2023
Item 15. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures,
page 92
1.
Based on your disclosures, it appears that your chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2023, your disclosure controls and procedures (“DCP”) were determined to be effective. However, we note that your assessment of internal control over financial reporting (“ICFR”) was not effective due to the material weaknesses described therein. To the extent that ICFR has been determined to be not effective due to the material weakness identified, we would expect your DCP also to be not effective due to the substantial overlap of controls. Refer to SEC Release No. 33-8238, Section II.D. Please revise to ensure consistent conclusions for both DCP and ICFR are presented.
RESPONSE: In response to the Staff’s
comments, we respectfully advise the Staff that, upon review, we determined the inconsistency was due to an inadvertent typographical
error, which has been corrected in Amendment No. 1. Specifically, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that
our Company’s ICFR was effective as of December 31, 2023, and the conclusion regarding DCP is now consistent with this assessment.
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control
Over Financial Reporting, page 93
2.
We note your disclosure that based on your evaluation and as a result of the material weakness discussed within, your chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2023 due to the existence of the disclosed significant deficiencies. Please correct your disclosure as it appears the conclusion should state “not effective” instead of “effective” in your conclusion. Please revise or advise us accordingly.
RESPONSE: In response to the Staff’s
comments, we respectfully advise the Staff that, upon review, we determined the inconsistency was due to an inadvertent typographical
error. There were no material weaknesses in the Company’s ICFR as of December 31, 2023. We have corrected our disclosure in Amendment
No. 1.

to the Staff’s comments or if you would like to discuss any other matters, please contact the undersigned at +34 961 196 250 or

Amendment No. 1 to Registration
Statement on Form F-1
Filed July 26, 2023
File No. 333-273198
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We hereby submit the responses of Turbo
Energy, S.A. (the “Company”) to the comments of the staff (the “Staff”) of the U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) set forth in the Staff’s letter, dated August 4, 2023, providing the Staff’s
comments with respect to the Company’s Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statement on Form F-1 Filed on July 26, 2023. Concurrently
with the submission of this letter, the Company is submitting the Amendment No.2 to the Registration Statement (the “Amendment
No. 2”) on Form F-1 together with certain exhibits via EDGAR with the Commission.
For the convenience of the Staff, each
of the Staff’s comments is included and is followed by the corresponding response of the Company. Unless the context indicates otherwise,
references in this letter to “we,” “us” and “our” refer to the Company on a consolidated basis.
Amendment 1 to Form F-1 filed July 26, 2023
Representative’s Warrant, page 100
1. We note that the total number of ADs purchasable with the Representative’s Warrant for both the over
allotment option and the non-over allotment option are blank. Please revise to provide the total number of ADs.
RESPONSE: In
response to the Staff’s comments, we have revised and included the total number of ADs purchasable with the Representative’s
Warrant for both the over allotment option and the non-over allotment option.
2. We note that the Form of the Representative’s Warrant includes a provision that any legal action may
only be instituted in a state or federal court in the city of Los Angeles, California. Please add a discussion in risk factors that clearly
describes any risks or other impacts on potential investors. Risks may include, but are not limited to, increased costs to bring a claim
and that these provisions can discourage claims or limit investors’ ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that they find
favorable. The disclosure should address any uncertainty about enforceability.
RESPONSE: In
response to the Staff’s comments, we respectfully advise the Staff that we have included such a risk factor on page 26 under the
heading “The form of Representative’s Warrant provides that any legal action may only be instituted in a state or federal
court in the city of New York, New York, which may result in holders of the Representative’s Warrant having limited choice of forum
and limited ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for complaints against us or our respective directors, officers or employees.”
We have made conforming revisions throughout the document accordingly.
Exhibit Index
Exhibit 5.2 - Opinion of Bevilacqua PLLC regarding the Underwriter’s
Warrant, page II-1
3. We note that your legal opinion states that “Because the Representative’s Warrant contains
provisions stating that they are to be governed by the laws of the State of New York, we are rendering this opinion as to New York law.”
However, the Form of the Representative’s Warrant (Exhibit 4.3) states that the governing law is the State of California. Please revise
and reconcile as to the governing law of the Representative’s Warrant.

contains provisions stating that they are to be governed by the laws of the State of New

File No. 333-273198
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We hereby submit the responses of Turbo
Energy, S.A. (the “Company”) to the comments of the staff (the “Staff”) of the U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) set forth in the Staff’s letter, dated July 17, 2023, providing the Staff’s
comments with respect to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form F-1 Filed on July 11, 2023. Concurrently with the submission
of this letter, the Company is submitting the Amendment No.1 to the Registration Statement (the “Amendment No. 1”)
on Form F-1 together with certain exhibits via EDGAR with the Commission.
For the convenience of the Staff, each
of the Staff’s comments is included and is followed by the corresponding response of the Company. Unless the context indicates otherwise,
references in this letter to “we,” “us” and “our” refer to the Company on a consolidated basis.
Registration Statement on Form F-1
Capitalization, page 36
1. We note from your disclosure on page 68 that the amount due to related parties
is €3.8 million as of June 30, 2023 which is significantly higher than the amount due to related parties as of December 31, 2022.
Please provide a footnote to the Capitalization table to quantify the amount due to related parties as of June 30, 2023 and explain how
the amount arose. Please also disclose when and how you expect to repay the amount due to related parties and specially address if any
offering proceeds will be used to repay related parties.
RESPONSE:
In response to the Staff’s comments, we have revised and included a footnote in the Capitalization table to detail the amount
owed to the parent company, Umbrella Solar Investment, and have provided details as to how and when it intends to repay such debt. We
have also clarified that none of the proceeds of this offering will be used to repay related parties.
Description of Share Capital, page 72
2. We note your disclosure on page 72 regarding a future share capital authorization
by Umbrella Solar Investment, S.A. You disclose a maximum amount of “eleven million two hundred and fifty thousand euros,” however
you include (€20,250,000) as well. Please revise to reconcile.
RESPONSE:
In response to the Staff’s comments, we have revised the language to resolve the discrepancy on page 72. The correct number
of maximum amount should be twenty million seven thousand euros (20,700,000€).
Governing Law/Waiver of Jury Trial, page 89
3. We note that the deposit agreement includes a provision that any legal action may only be instituted
in a state or federal court in the city of New York. Please add a discussion in risk factors that clearly describes any risks or other
impacts on investors. Risks may include, but are not limited to, increased costs to bring a claim and that these provisions can discourage
claims or limit investors’ ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that they find favorable. The disclosure should address
any uncertainty about enforceability.
RESPONSE:
In response to the Staff’s comments, we respectfully advise the Staff that we had included such a risk factor on page 26 under the
heading “The deposit agreement provides that any legal action may only be instituted in a state or federal court in the city of
New York, which may result in holders of our ADSs or ordinary shares having limited choice of forum and limited ability to obtain a favorable
judicial forum for complaints against us or our respective directors, officers or employees.” We have made conforming revisions
throughout the document accordingly.
4. In addition, we note that the deposit agreement includes a jury trial waiver provision
that applies to claims under the federal securities laws. Please revise to provide clear disclosure in risk factors. Disclosure regarding
the jury trial waiver may include, but is not limited to, increased costs to bring a claim, limited access to information and other imbalances
of resources between the company and shareholders, and that these provisions can discourage claims or limit shareholders’ ability
to bring a claim in a judicial forum that they find favorable. You should address any question regarding whether or not a court would
enforce the provision and the impact on claims arising under other applicable state or federal laws.
RESPONSE:
In response to the Staff’s comments, we respectfully advise the Staff that we had included such a risk factor on page 26 under the
heading “The deposit agreement waives holders of our ADSs’ right to jury trial in any legal proceeding arising out of the
deposit agreement or the ADRs against us and/or the depository, which could result in less favorable outcomes to the plaintiffs in any
of such actions.” We have made conforming revisions throughout the document accordingly.

5. In your response to our prior comment 2, we note you revised the Weighted Average
Number of Common Shares Outstanding used in your fiscal 2022 EPS calculation from 1,126,796 shares, as previously presented in your Draft
Registration Statement filed on May 25, 2023, to 359,673 shares. However, if you retroactively reflect both the December stock issuance
and the 20-for-1 forward stock split in your historical EPS calculations, as suggested in prior comment 2, the Weighted Average Number
of Common Shares Outstanding used in both your fiscal 2022 and 2021 EPS calculations would be significantly higher than the shares you
used in your initial calculations and your revised calculation such that the number of shares outstanding in both fiscal periods would
exceed 50,000,000 shares. We note both the December share issuance and the 20-for-1 forward stock split had no impact on the ownership
of the Company but significantly impacted the number of shares outstanding and capital structure of the Company going forward. We also
note, on a post stock split basis, the per share price of the December share issuance was nominal relative to the anticipated IPO price.
As previously requested, please revise your calculations of basic and diluted earnings per share for all periods presented (fiscal 2021
and 2022) to retro-actively reflect both the December stock issuance and the 20-for-1 forward stock split or explain to us why you do
not believe such revisions are required based on consideration of the guidance in paragraphs 21, 26, 28, and 64 of IAS 33.
RESPONSE: In response to the Staff’s
comments, we have revised and updated calculations of basic and diluted earnings per share for all periods presented (fiscal 2021 and
2022) to retro-actively reflect both the 2022 December stock issuance and the 20-for-1 forward stock split.

We note in February 2023 the Company approved a forward stock split on a 20-for-1 basis that increased your issued and outstanding share capital from 2,504,285 ordinary shares to 50,085,700 ordinary shares. We also note during December 2022 you issued 50,000,000 shares (2,500,000 shares on a pre-stock split basis) of common stock for proceeds of €2,500,000, to your parent company, who is also your sole shareholder. Given the impact of the share issuance during December 2022 and the forward stock split in February 2023 relative to the Company’s historical capitalization, neither of which impacted the ownership of the Company, please explain to us how and why you determined it would not be more appropriate to also retro-actively reflect the share issuance that occurred during December 2022 in determining the number of shares outstanding used to calculate earnings per share during each period presented, similar to the treatment of the forward stock split. Please specifically address your consideration of paragraphs 21, 26, 28, and 64 of IAS 33. In this regard, it appears the December share issuance may lack substance and the current earnings per share disclosures are not indicative of the actual capitalization of the Company going forward.
RESPONSE: In response to the
