Event Report
This was an event held in conjunction with a popular weekly Cars & Coffee. On the day of the NDEW event, over 250 cars attended including the 11 electric vehicles. Normally, it is rare for any electric vehicles to show up though I have been bringing my Ford Mustang Mach-E over the summer.You can view photos of the event here: https://www.sthomasphotos.com/Car-Shows-and-Events/Electric-Vehicle-Events/20210918-Cars-Coffee-EVs/
Previous to the event, there was an article in a local newspaper and website here: https://eaglenewsonline.com/new/2021/09/14/learn-about-electric-vehicles-at-cars-coffee-evs-sept-18-in-clay/
The event went very well. Here is a list of the electric vehicles who came: 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E Premium RWD with Extended Range Battery, 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E Premium AWD with Extended Range Battery, Tesla Model 3 Performance, Tesla Model X Performance, BMW i3, 2020 Silver Kia Niro EV Limited, 2019 Hyundai Kona EV, Toyota Prius Prime (2), Mini Cooper SE and Black Fiat e500.
Owners were great talking with anyone who had questions or wanted to look over and in their vehicles. While no drives were offered due to NDEW policy, lots of people got to see these cars close up (many for the first time) and learn about EV ownership. I know many came away with a much better view of electric vehicles. A lot of myths of electric vehicles were debunked.
Considering this was an event which was planned in less than a month, I was very happy with the turnout of electric vehicles and the reception they received considering the Cars and Coffee crowd is into classic, hot rods and sports cars.
The printed materials from NDEW were very popular especially the one showing the current electric vehicles available for purchase and lease.
