Meadowhall hosts free electric vehicle event

Visitors will have the chance to get up close and personal and learn more about electric vehicles – and even get the opportunity to take some for a spin. The expo will be based at Meadowhall in Sheffield between 8th - 13th of August and will bring together some of the best electric and hybrid vehicles available, as well as a number of cars not currently on the UK market. From small city run-arounds to motorway cruisers, luxury saloons to sports vehicles, participating manufacturers displaying a range of vehicles will include Polestar, Vauxhall, Alfa Romeo, Volkswagen, Renault, and Jeep. A ‘Test Drive Zone’ will enable visitors to not just view the vehicles but to experience electric power first hand by getting behind the wheel and taking one for a spin. The new Jeep Avenger – the European car of the year – will be one of the market-leading the cars available for visitors to try during the shows. The expo will be set up within the centre’s main outdoor car park on the upper level from 10am - 7pm every day, apart from Sunday when it will conclude at 5pm.
