Visit Plug’n Drive at the Canadian International AutoShow on Media Day: Thursday, February 15, 2024 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Toronto, ON – Plug’n Drive representatives will be available to the media at the Canadian International AutoShow starting this Thursday, February 15, 2024 at the event’s designated media day, and for the entire duration of the Show.
What is Plug’n Drive’s role at the Canadian International AutoShow?
The Canadian International AutoShow is teaming up with Plug’n Drive to offer attendees the electric vehicle education and test drive experience of a lifetime.
Why are EV test drives important?
Vehicles may be changing, but test drives are more important than ever.
That’s where Plug’n Drive comes in.
According to a report from Mckinsey & Company, “given the different experience offered by electric vehicles and consumers’ common lack of knowledge of EVs, test drives are even more important.”
Test driving an EV with Plug’n Drive at the Canadian International AutoShow, or any of their EV test drive initiatives, gives visitors a chance to experience electric driving first-hand in a sales-free, no-pressure environment. Visitors can also get their questions answered by Plug’n Drive’s EV ambassadors, most of whom are EV owners themselves and can speak to the electric driving lifestyle.
There will be a minimum of 14 EV models from various manufacturers available to test drive at the indoor and outdoor EV test tracks in the South building on Level 800.
