‘Test Drive the Future’ is being held at Magdalen College School, Oxford, on Sunday 19th June as part of the Low Carbon Oxford Week in association with the Oxford Festival of Arts.
A family-friendly day of events celebrating developments in sustainable engineering and technology.
Test drive a fantastic array of electric cars, listen to talks about developments in science and engineering, build a solar powered model car, enter a model car challenge judged by EV-enthusiast Robert Llewellyn (Red Dwarf), meet Artie the Robot, try heliographic art, make a pinwheel or sundial – and much more. With events and activities for all the family, this promises to be an entertaining and informative day.
The DriveElectric team will be on hand to answer questions and offer information about switching to an electric car as well as providing demonstrations of the Kia Soul EV.
There’s no need to book in advance, just turn up on the day, between 11am – 4pm. Please be sure to bring your driving licence with you if you wish to take a test drive.
Take an excursion to our events page to discover upcoming electric vehicle events and things to do… some we will be attending as ‘DriveElectric’ and some we’re heading to just for fun. We also post updates on prize draws and competitions we are running on this page (if you’re feeling lucky).
We’ve always found the EV community warm and welcoming so get involved if you can. As well as physical meet ups there are great EV owners groups on Facebook (the BMW i3 UK group on Facebook is particularly useful and chatty!) and there’s lots of activity on twitter too, so either virtually or ‘in real life’ we hope to see you there.
