Cool Davis and the City of Davis are hosting a movable feast of electric vehicles near the Davis Farmers Market on Saturday, September 16th on 4th Street between C & D as part of National Drive Electric Week which runs September 9th to the 17th in 2017.

Between 9am and 1pm, lucky residents and visitors alike can view and partake of a test drive before (or after) grabbing their market goodies!

The first 100 test drivers win $10 Farmers Market bucks sponsored by PG&E or Downtown Davis Gift cards!

Show & Tell Over 20 electric vehicle owners — some from our local DEVA (Davis Electric Vehicle Association) — will be on hand to talk about their driving and ownership experiences. Electric vehicle models at the event may include the Leaf, Tesla S & X, Bolt, Volt, C-Max, Fusion,  BMW E3, Fiat500e, and others.

Ride & Drive Several retail car dealers will also be at the Farmer’s Market with vehicles available for a test drive. Sign up at the info table and look for test drive vehicles on 4th St towards the D Street side!

  • EV 101 — What EV is right for me?
  • Charging Levels, Power, and Your Electricity Bill
  • EV/PV Driving on Sunshine!
