On Saturday, Sept. 16, electric vehicle owners from the Sunshine Coast and the Lower Mainland will be gathering in Sechelt’s Trail Bay Centre parking lot for the Third Annual Sechelt Electric Vehicle Festival.
This year, the star attendee will be the newest EV – the Chevy Bolt. Owners Buddy Boyd and Barb Hetherington recently returned from a Zero Waste trip across Canada in their new car. Come to find out how much they spent on electricity on this big trip.
The festival will also have the popular Nissan Leafs along with Kia Souls, Teslas, Mitsubishi MiEVs, Ford Focus EV and more.
Families are welcome. And with the Farmers’ Market and Wood Expo happening nearby, there will be something for everyone.
For out-of-town visitors, the event will be held in the area surrounding Sechelt’s DC Fast Charger. Several Level 2 chargers will also be nearby.
The festival goes from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.
EV owners planning on displaying their vehicles, please email to [email protected].
