Talk with owners and dealers of electric vehicles (EVs), plug-in hybrids (PHEVs), electric bicycles (e-bikes), and electric lawn and garden tools from Vermont and New Hampshire. See the cars, trucks, and bikes and take test rides at the FREE Upper Valley EV Expo on Saturday, September 6 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Hartford Town Hall, 171 Bridge Street, Hartford, Vt. and adjacent Lyman Point Park.
Federal tax credits for buying or leasing an EV (new or used) expire on September 30. So if you're thinking you might want to get a new or used vehicle in the near future, now is a great time to go electric!
Bring your questions and your curiosity. We'll have live music, free drinks while they last, and food for purchase from Munchie-Rollz or Jamaican Food from K&P Catering. There's a playground at the site for the littles. Pre-register to Attend using the button above and get a free raffle ticket!
PLEASE NOTE: If you would like to show your EV and talk with the public about it, please note that at this point we will be accepting only EV and PHEV models that are NOT on the list at the bottom of this page. If you have a different model, please joint us at the EV Expo if you can participate from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.!
