Geneva Motor Show - Zurich to Geneva on Friday, 9th of March 2012

Cool. Looks like this might be the first proper pan-European TMC meet-up

So can we make a list who of this forum will be attending and let us do something special as TMC "members" ( picture or lunch or anything ):

Who else? And yes Model S will be on display.

I am going to attend. Taking the Roadster might be too ambitious as Madrid - Geneva is 1400kms each way. I'm not ruling it out, but that's about 5 100% charge cycles and those take time and planning (I have neither ).

So, no test drives for those of us with Model S reservations already made? That sounds sub-standard for Tesla. Have you guys asked Tesla directly? We could put some collective pressure on them.

Speak to Eberhard. He knows how to get from Switzerland to Spain.

[Eberhard]

going from spain to Geneva is a 2-day journey, but can be done.

[mgemmell]

Yeah but half way form Madrid to Spain is still in Spain! Hence the 4 day trip.

I want to do it, but as my first long distance trip I feel it may be ambitious. Glad to be convinced otherwise mind you.

[Eberhard]

you can easily do 700km a day but you need at least 32A

latest Tesla update;

"We are planning on sending all the details in the next couple of days so attendees know everything in terms of organization, route, accommodation and costs.

Nothing is foreseen in terms of pre-event but if you want you’re free to do whatever you want! We are beginning the trip around 9 AM on the 9th.

Main stops will be Zurich, Bern, Nyon and then Geneva."

[Dragon]

Dragon from Italy along with girlfriend will join as well.

I'll probably go on the last day of the autoshow. I have a conference in the Europapark in Germany from March 20th, so I'll go to Geneva and from there drive on to Rust (DE, 350km).

Saves me the about 1800km of driving
