Event Description

 


Electric Vehicle shows are held May 6th, 2018 and September 16th, 2018.

Our Spring Show hosted by the Seattle Electric Vehicle Association will again take place in the Electric Vehicle friendly city of Issaquah, a short drive east of Seattle right off I-90. The location is the historic Triple X Root Beer Drive-In: a monument to the history of motoring and a regional destination famous for its weekly car shows. 

Washington State is one of the top markets for Electric Vehicles (EVs) in the country! Not only are EVs becoming more popular, but increasingly stylish models are appearing on the market from various auto makers, including:

Nissan ● Ford ● Tesla ● Smart ● Chevrolet ● Toyota ● Fiat ● Porsche ● Honda ● Mercedes ● Kia ● VW ● Mitsubishi ● BMW and many others 

Registration is FREE. If you want to show your plug-in electric vehicle, register now. Space is filling up! 

See production and vintage conversion vehicles on display. Talk to owners about their experiences driving EVs. Enjoy music, prizes and our special guests. Come see what is new in the world of electric driving.

Last May we had 59+ EVs on display representing more than 1.5 million oil-free miles! The event also included lots of fun activities such as a scavenger hunt with prizes, three student robotics teams and some great exhibits by Puget Sound Solar, Torklift Central and several other vendors. 

Our special guests represent the breadth of enthusiasts and leaders in the community of drivers, business, and government. 
In prior years, our VIP guests included White Zombie's John Wayland, Issaquah Mayor Fred Butler, state Representative Chad Magendanz, King County Council Chair Larry Phillips, and Charles Knutson Senior Policy Advisor Washington State Transportation & Economic Development.
