SUMMARY:Electric Vehicle Workshop: Get Plugged In
DESCRIPTION:We all still have a lot of questions about electric vehicles. They’re really cool\, but still a mystery to most of us. \n\nHow far can you really go?\nHow long do the batteries last?\nAre they fast?\nCan I charge at home?\nHow much will it cost to charge it?\nCan I still take a road trip?\nCan I fit my whole family in the car?\nCan I power my car with solar?\n\nWe invite you to join us so we can demystify EVs and have a conversation about how a zero emissions vehicle might fit into your life. Come get all your EV questions answered and learn about Central Oregon’s new Electric Vehicle Group Buy Program that can help you save up to $17\,500 off the cost of a new all-electric car.
