Drive Electric Week, September 12-20, 2015, is an international celebration to heighten awareness of today's widespread availability of plug-in vehicles and highlight the benefits of all-electric and plug-in hybrid-electric cars, trucks, motorcycles, and more. They are fun to drive, are less expensive and more convenient to fuel than gasoline vehicles, are better for the environment, promote local jobs, and reduce our dependence on foreign oil.
2015 will mark the first year that Hong Kong will participate, with Charged Hong Kong organising the event here. Due to the unique logistics of Hong Kong, rather than having one single event at one single location, we have decided to distribute the event across the whole week, and to use social media to coordinate and evangelise the message. The Hong Kong event will focus on evangelising the benefits of, and driving actual experience with, Electric Vehicles. It is open to all owners of Plug-In Electric Vehicles in Hong Kong. The event will be organised as a ‘game’, with participants receiving points for undertaking classes of tasks.
The Sunday 20th September 2015 evening event is the culmination of the Drive Electric Week in Hong Kong. This gathering is to celebrate that week with good food, drink, lucky draw prizes for the Drive Electric Week competition, and perhaps a surprise activity or two. It is a once-in-a-year chance to meet other EV owners and drivers in Hong Kong. Remote Control Roadster and Model S cars will be there for drivers of all ages.
The location will be the Tamarind Restaurant, 2/F., Sun Hung Kai Centre, 30 Harbour Road, Wan Chai.

Hope to see you there!
