The producers of the Chicago Auto Show are plugging into
the EV revolution with Chicago Drives Electric, putting you behind the wheel of
some of today’s brand-new electric vehicles! This event is designed for
attendees to experience the latest EVs, hybrids and plug-in hybrids to showcase
a variety of options that may fit individual needs or lifestyles.
In addition to driving and learning about the latest
electrified vehicles, experts from the automakers, Cars.com, Charge
Enterprises, ComEd, and Powering Chicago will be on hand to assist with
questions as they relate to range anxiety, on-the-go charging networks and
infrastructure, at-home charging and installation, and where to begin your
search.
