Are you ready to get electrified, Seattle? Electrify Expo, North America’s largest electric vehicle (EV) festival, is rolling into town this weekend. Mark your calendars for September 9-10, as Marymoor Park in Redmond, Washington, transforms into a hub of all-things electric. From electric cars and trucks to motorcycles, e-bikes, e-scooters, and even e-skateboards, there’s something electrifying for everyone.
“Consumers are embracing the idea to go electric but still have questions about what that means,” as BJ Birtwell, CEO and founder of Electrify Expo, puts it. “Electrify Expo answers that by making it easy for consumers to get behind the wheel of an EV, hop on the seat of an e-bike, e-scooter, e-motorcycle and more on a variety of demo courses. There’s no better way to drive EV adoption than hands-on experiences with these products from the world’s leading brands.”
