Yesterday, I showcased\u00a0an impressive display of Tesla mods at the SEMA show<\/a>\u00a0in Las Vegas. As the auto industry descended upon Sin City last week for the ultimate automotive experience, roaring engines and smoking tailpipes are typically the norm. But\u00a0this year was definitely a bit different.<\/p>\n

Okay, let’s rewind a bit. The last time\u00a0I<\/em>\u00a0attended SEMA was back in 2014 and electric cars were considered nothing more than weird-looking golf carts at the time. Sure, Teslas<\/a> were around (albeit rare) back then. But the Silicon Valley automaker was considered a “flash in the pan” at the time \u2014 soon to be another DeLorean that would likely go out-of-business. Not so. This year,\u00a0Teslas were everywhere at SEMA<\/a>. And EVs were increasingly on-display at SEMA booths all over the show \u2014\u00a0a vivid signpost that the auto industry’s transition away from fossil fuels is coming.<\/p>\n

However, the most exciting EVs\u00a0on display at SEMA weren’t\u00a0only<\/em>\u00a0from Elon Musk<\/a>‘s electric automaker. Old guard brands like Porsche, Volkswagen, and Dodge had brought in some cool EVs to this year’s SEMA show. And new kids on the block, like Rivian, were on display as well.<\/p>\n

In fact, there was an entire “Electric Vehicle Alley” at the SEMA show which showcased everything from exotic charging\u00a0adapters to funky frunk mods. It was something to behold. Educational seminars and panels are another fascinating part of SEMA. I got a chance to attend a few interesting\u00a0talks\u00a0including one about\u00a0EV battery packs and another discussing the aftermarket industry surrounding EVs.<\/p>\n

While I was having fun\u00a0seeing all the Tesla mods<\/a>\u00a0and taking trips in Teslas via the LVCC Loop (courtesy of The Boring Company), I saw some really cool electric cars from legacy automakers too. So, in between my photo adventure documenting Teslas, I\u00a0also<\/em>\u00a0snapped a few fun pics of modded\u00a0non-Tesla<\/em>\u00a0EVs. Let’s take a look at the photo gallery below for some more eye candy.<\/p>\n
