The Louisiana EV Roadshow aims to provide attendees with a hands-on electric vehicle and charging experience. Privately owned and dealer vehicles were available for test drives with models including the Jaguar I-PACE, Nissan LEAF, Chevy Volt and Bolt, Audi A3 etron, BMW i3, Honda Clarity, Hyundai Ioniq, Ford C-MAX Energi and Tesla models S, 3, and X. Test drives and charging demonstrations gave participants the opportunity to ask their toughest and most technical questions about charging speeds and connector types. Test drive participants were asked to take part in a pre and post test drive demonstration survey. After completing the demonstration and the survey, participants were given an official Louisiana EV Roadshow T-shirt! |
SLCFP hosted EV Roadshow events on September 15, 2019 in Abita Springs and September 22, 2019 in New Orleans in conjunction with National Drive Electric Week to harness the nationwide momentum and enthusiasm of sharing information about EVs!
