Electric Vehicles (talking cars today) – try one, buy one, this Summer, this Christmas…

BySasha Mainsbridge

Last Chance to Go in the Draw to Win a Tesla for a Day!

We are keen to hear from the Northern Rivers community about their interest - and concerns - about electric vehicles.
The last day to enter our EV Survey is Sunday 31 October.
The winner of the day in a Tesla will be drawn from the entries on Monday 1 November.

Take the survey now!

This will help us to advocate on your behalf to make EV ownership easier across our region, to ensure charging stations are conveniently sited and
to assess which types of electric vehicles are of most interest.
We know that strategies designed for cities are not necessarily suitable for our region, so please tell us what you would like to see!

We look forward to your responses! Feel free to circulate the survey link to family, friends and colleagues - but get your entries in by 5pm Sunday 31 October.
