As we transition towards our low-emissions future, New Zealand's Climate Change Commission has modelled that by 2035 around 36% of light vehicles on our roads will be EVs and 100% of light vehicle imports will be EVs. So, what does this change mean for you?

You’re invited to join us as we discuss the practical realities of EV ownership and to answer any questions you might have.

This event is for anyone interested in buying an EV now or in the future, but wants to know more about how EV ownership will impact their lifestyle vs an internal combustion engine vehicle.

Topics for discussion include:

The practical realities of owning an EV in 2022
What is in store for EVs in the near future
Range anxiety and costs
Charging stations and at-home charging
Hybrid vehicles
An outlook on EVs for rural/off-road use
Pathways into EV ownership for different lifestyles

Light refreshments will be provided.

There is the opportunity to network from 5pm with the event starting at 5:30pm.

This is a Taranaki 2050 initiative in collaboration with Venture Taranaki, Sustainable Taranaki, TOI Foundation and Electricarna.
