Electric Vehicle Meet and Greet

  • Saturday, October 14, 2023, 10:00 AM - 1:00 PM

Check out a variety of affordable electric vehicles on display and chat with EV drivers. Try Ithaca Bikeshare’s electric bikes, explore electric buses, or ride your electric wheelchair up the bus ramp to strap in.

Join America’s transformative way of getting… everywhere!

Electric vehicles are becoming more accessible, whether by riding an electric TCAT bus, using an eBike from Ithaca Bikeshare, purchasing a used EV, and more. On average, Americans drive <40 miles/day (far less than the average EV range). Although EVs are usually more costly to purchase, they are way cheaper to operate: Even without charging off a solar panel, EVs save an average of 60% on fuel and 50% on maintenance. Once you make the shift to electric, the savings kick in. It's a win-win for you... and the Earth!
