Event Description
National Drive Electric Week, September 9-17, 2017, is a nationwide celebration to heighten awareness of today's widespread availability of plug-in vehicles and highlight the benefits of all-electric and plug-in hybrid-electric cars, trucks, motorcycles and more.
The New Orleans Sierra Club in conjunction with EV-LA (auto group) will be hosting an EV/PHEV ride
and drive event at Audubon Zoo. EV/PHEV owners will
be present to share ownership experiences and offer test drives. This is a
great opportunity to test out an electric vehicle without the typical
dealership setting of possibly being pressured to buy. Refreshments will be
served.
When: Sunday 10th, 2 PM – 5 PM at Audubon Zoo.
