Celebrate Drive Electric Week with a Virtual Tour of a Ford Lightning

It’s Drive Electric Week! The annual event to celebrate, try and switch to electric transport runs from September 23 – October 2.

Drive Electric Week

CleanTechnica marks the week by partnering with three nonprofits, Electrify now, forward, and God, to give a behind-the-scenes look at the automotive industry. The webinar is titled The EV Revolution: How EVs Are Completely Reshaping the Automotive Industry and will take place on Wednesday, September 28, noon Pacific Time.

This webinar kicks off with a live tour of one of the few Ford Lightnings out on the street today with Aaron Smith, president of EEBA. Aaron will explain to us why he loves his new electric truck and how, when the electricity went out last month, he was able to power several neighbors’ homes while using only 5% of the truck’s battery.

CleanTechnica CEO Zachary Shahan will provide an overview of the challenges new and existing automakers face as the transition to electric-powered transportation accelerates. Zachary will explore how the major automakers of the past approach this transition, which ones are best prepared, and which of the new players seem poised to thrive and grow.

Finally, JR Andersons of the nonprofit Forth will provide an overview of the Inflation Reduction Act and which vehicles will be eligible for EV tax credits beginning in 2023.
