15. Coming Soon
Employee Engagement Program
• Targeted at Employers
• Drawing Parallels Between Environment and Health
• Exclusive EV Webinar Series for Employees
• Company Day at the EVDC for Employees to Book EV Test Drive Time Slots
16. Coming Soon!
Mobile EV Education Trailer (MEET)
• Mobile EV Discovery Centre – Hybrid between EVDC and Roadshow
• Short-Term Interactive Space that can travel between cities across Canada
• Universal content relevant to all Canadian provinces – Evs are for Everyone!
17. Why is The MEET Needed?
• Low supply – no opportunities
for test drive in many cities
• Most mid size cities cannot
justify the cost of a full EVDC
but need more than a one or
two day road show to convert
• Data shows our model works!
30% of visitors to EVDC go on
to buy an EV in 6 months.
Used is making that number
grow even more!
