We are electric vehicle enthusiasts evangelizing the rapid adoption of EVs.

Our mission is to be evangelists for EV adoption and to help the state meet the goals set forth in the Multi-state ZEV Action Plan.

We do this by interacting with people in EV showcases and ride and drive events. We advocate for and help draft EV-friendly legislation.

We track and analyze EV adoption in the State of CT.

We participate in public events focused on sustainability. And, finally, we are a resource for anyone who is looking to buy an EV.

What electric vehicles are on the market?

It’s time to make the switch to an electric vehicle

Battery life is longer, ranges are longer, new models have arrived, prices have come down, federal and state incentives continue and more charging stations are being built. Buying an EV is the best way to immediately lower your carbon footprint.

The more EVs on the road, the more charging infrastructure will be built.

Electric vehicles are part of every personal, business and municipal plan to transition to clean energy.
