28 April @ 18:00 – 19:00 CDT

We have an exciting event we want you to know about.  With all of us being cooped up in our houses, we know you may be dying to see a Tesla Model Y.  Aaron Choate is willing to share his vehicle with us using modern technology [via a Zoom web conference].  The plan is he will have his phone running with the Zoom app.  Michael Danberry will moderate the meeting to unmute people to ask questions of Aaron.  Aaron will then show us and answer questions about his new ride.

Please join this joint venture between the Tesla Owners Clubs of Austin and San Antonio, and AustinEV.  The meeting is limited to the first 100 people.

This event will happen on Tuesday 28 April from 6-7 pm (see the link below).

This is a past event and we have a recording!

Join all the fun at Fully Charged Live this weekend. The partners have been hard at work pulling together a great show. The final program has been released and this promises to be a fun electric vehicle gathering with cars on display and presentations. A great place to meet the people doing things to make this real.

Come say hello in the EV Corral and the Ride & Drive! We have a great group of owners who would be happy to share their experiences driving electric!
