Open to the Public
Ever wanted to test drive an electric vehicle? Now is your chance. On Saturday, March 14th from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. there will be a Clean Vehicle Ride and Drive event at the Goleta Community Center (5679 Hollister Avenue). This is an opportunity to test drive electric vehicles from local dealerships, learn about the Driving Clean Assistance Program (DCAP), and enjoy food from local vendors (while supplies last).
The event is put on by the Air Pollution Control District (APCD) and co-sponsored by the Central Coast Clean Cities Coalition and the Community Environmental Council.
DCAP provides up to $12,000 toward the purchase or lease of a new or used electric- or plug-in hybrid vehicle for income-qualified participants or residents of a low-income and/or disadvantaged community.
People who attend the event on March 14 can receive assistance with DCAP applications.
Drivers must be 18 years or older, present a valid driver’s license, and complete a liability waiver. Participants who test drive a vehicle will be entered for a chance to win a $200 VISA gift card.

We hope to see you at the GCC on March 14!
