CARS OF THE FUTURE 🚘 | JEA held an event allowing drivers to test drive electric vehicles.
The utility invited drivers to test drive several different EVs, including the new Ford F-150 Lightning.“It was really fun, very stable. The acceleration was great. Functions like a very small utility vehicle,” Robinson shared.“I’m probably spending close to about $100 a week,” Robinson said.Attendees also got to hear firsthand from dozens of local EV owners about their experiences.
“We have between 50 to 100 electric vehicle owners out here with their cars, and they’re demonstrating those vehicles, answering questions,” explained JEA Electrification Program Manager Dave McKee.experts were on hand to answer questions about home charging, local charging stations, utility costs and more.
Lakeshore Bikes also had e-bikes available for test rides. Plus, there was a Nikola Tre BEV 18-wheel semi on display, and people got to check out a hybrid yacht. JEA hosted the event along with the Jacksonville Transportation Authority, North Florida Transportation Planning Organization and North Florida Clean Fuels Coalition. JTA had an electric bus on display and offered rides in an autonomous vehicle, AV Star.“We have two all-electric semitrucks,” McKee said. “It’s a phase-by-phase process. As we replace vehicles, we look to for an electric alternative that will match the performance that we need for that vehicle.
