Lexington is set to host the National Drive Electric Week from September 27 to October 6, 2024. This nationwide event aims to promote awareness of the benefits of all-electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles. The highlight of the week will be a Ride and Drive Event on Saturday, October 5, 2024, from 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM.
The Ride and Drive Event will take place at The Summit at Fritz Farm, specifically in the parking lot behind J. Alexander’s. This gathering is designed for those interested in transitioning to electric vehicles. Attendees will have the opportunity to explore various electric vehicle options and learn about the latest advancements in electric mobility.
Daniel Lowry, media relations manager and spokesperson for LG&E and Kentucky Utilities, emphasizes the significant benefits of adopting electric vehicles. “Going electric not only reduces carbon emissions but also lowers fuel and maintenance costs, making it an economically sound choice for many families,” he stated.
In addition to test drives, the event will offer informational resources to help potential buyers make informed decisions about electric vehicle ownership. Participants can also inquire about charging stations and the infrastructure supporting electric vehicles in the Lexington area.
To learn more about electric vehicles and local charging stations, interested individuals can visit the websites of LG&E and Kentucky Utilities for further guidance and resources.
This year’s National Drive Electric Week aims to not just increase awareness but also drive community engagement around sustainable transportation solutions. As electric vehicles gain momentum, events like this one play a crucial role in fostering a culture of green mobility.
