Well, here I am on Gilles-Villeneuve F1 race track in Montréal !  The organizers confirm that well over 320 electric vehicles are registered for the event.  More than 30 level 2 chargers are installed a even a few 90A chargers also.  Well organized !!

The two-day event’s goal is to offer the general public a chance to test drive electric vehicles. Here is the best aspect of the event : the volunteers are actual EV owners.  This is the 2nd edition of Branchez-Vous, and also my second time as a volunteer !
