Aimed at individuals and commercial vehicle buyers, the event showcased all aspects of sustainable and cleaner travel.

The event allowed visitors to browse, sit in and have test drives of popular models of electric cars, vans and commercial vehicles.

Presentations from industry professionals discussed the benefits of electric vehicles, the charging infrastructure and the practicalities for the individual driver as well as for businesses looking to electrify their fleet.
