Join the Sierra Club and our partners as we celebrate National Drive Electric Week throughout Ohio! We are co-hosting events near Toledo on Sept. 10, Cincinnati on Sept. 17 and Columbus on Sept. 18.
National Drive Electric Week, happening Sept. 10-18, 2016, 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. They are fun to drive, are less expensive and more convenient to fuel than gasoline vehicles, are better for the environment, promote local jobs, and reduce our dependence on foreign oil. Are you considering going electric? Come talk to owners who have successfully done so. Do you already own an EV? Come put your car on display and talk to attendees about why you love driving electric.

Cincinnati’s first National Drive Electric Week Ride & Drive Event, September 17 from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. at the Tri-County Mall on the corner of Princeton Pike and Kemper Road, is free and open to the public. The Ride & Drive Event will showcase electric vehicles from manufacturers including Tesla, BMW, Chevrolet, Nissan and the Workhorse Group, a local company that makes all-electric delivery vans. Take a test drive and learn about the many personal and environmental advantages of owning an electric vehicle, including: (1) energy efficiency and lower fuel costs; (2) lower maintenance costs; (3) zero emissions and cleaner air; and (4) home charging (never go to a gas station again, unless you need air!). We encourage all attendees to register here.
